The crop tool in Media Manager 5 gives the user the possibility to use one of the pre-defined cropping forms, based either on aspect ratio (standard presets) or specific dimensions (corporate presets). The presets can be configured in Media Manager’s portal config manager.

In order to access preset configuration for global presets, navigate to ‘Settings' (1) → ‘Portal config manager’ (2) → 'Crop presets’ (3).

In order to access preset configuration for site presets, navigate to ‘Settings' (1) → ‘Portal config manager’ (2) → (select version) (3) → 'Crop presets’ (4).

The user can now do one of the following:

  • Add a new preset (1)

  • Edit an existing preset (2)

  • Delete an existing preset (3).


The following fields define a new preset:

  • 'Name' - the name of a new preset

  • 'Description' - the description of a new preset, displayed under the preset name in Media Manager's interface

  • ‘Width’ - the width of the preset

  • ‘Height’ - the height of the preset

  • ‘Type’ - aspect ratio or size in pixels.

In order to save a new a preset, hit the ‘Save’ button in the upper right corner.

It is possible to quickly find a specific preset by using the search box in the upper right corner of the page.
