3.2 image rendering issues when cropping and straightening

Is your profile correct that you're running 10.6.8 or are you on Lion?

Still on Snow Leopard here and I just tried this. Sorry to report it worked OK for me. I tried both straightening then cropping and then the reverse. No problems.

Does it happen on all portrait images? Could you post a screen shot of the results?

There wasa report of something similar a while back. Here's the thread:

After straightening/cropping 1/2 or 3/4 of displayed image is blacked out! Don;t know how that turned out.

regards

I have the same issue as you and I am still on Snow Leopard. Also there are issues with Dodging an image. I noticed lots of squares when trying to apply the quick brush.

I just upgraded to 3.2 and am experiencing the same issue when cropping portrait oriented photos.

Same issue here. Aperture 3.2, OS 10.7.2.

I was having this same issue this morning during an editing session. I'm at work, and don't have Aperture in front of me, so this is not exact, however, I went to the "view" menu, and turned of what I believe is called "on screen proofing"? This immediately corrected the crop issue for me. I know that may not be a permanent solution, for those that leave that on, but it worked for me for now.

Disclaimer as I'm not in front of my machine: I THINK that was the menu option under view, but it may have been something similar. 🙂

This is on Lion, latest updates, and latest version on Aperture.

I have the same problem. Just upgraded from Aperture 3.1 to Aperture 3.2 running on OSX 10.6.8. Crop and straighten tools seem to work on a landscape format image but not on a portrait format. Selecting crop immediately causes the top part of the image to disappear. Are Apple aware of this - it is a serious fault with the software!

Just seen answer from Rotlex. I have the same result - the problem does not seem to occur if you turn off "on screen proofing".

I confirm that the workaround you suggest works for me too.

Thank you for sharing your find.

I'm seeing the same behavior on Lion (10.7.2) and Aperture (3.2). It seems to have arrived with the most recent batch of updates in support of iOS 5.

Turning off on screen proofing appears to correct the problem. Not really a solution, but I can at least edit...

I also had same problem yesterday after upgrade, the top 1/3rd of image disappears during the cropping and straightening processes in the viewer window, but only with portrait/vertically oriented images.

I went to bed with Aperture running in the background. This morning the cropping problem has disapeared???

I have a minor problen that when i go to crop portrait/vertically oriented images the cropping frame is always landscape/horizontal and i have to go to crop box to force the frame to take the portrait/vertically position.

I did not make any changes to Aperture overnite. Not sure what happened but beach ball activity has reduced also. running SL 10.6.8

Apple will only "look into this further" if it comes to the attention of Apple Engineering. Only way for that to happen is to call AppleCare with any bugs that are easy to reproduce after the Aperture update. 800-275-2273.
