Cropping bug: part of image goes black

A strange problem which cropped up after installing 3.2, and remains after re-installing 3.2.

When I go to crop a vertical image, the top 1/3 of the image goes black. I can still select what I want (guessing for the border in the black part) and, when I complete the crop, I get the whole image I want, with no black.

Interestingly, if I rotate the vertical to horizontal, I can crop with no black part. So I can use that to crop, and then rotate back to vertical. But there's clearly a bug here.

Any suggestions?

MacPro 2.66mhz 7GB RAM, MacBook Pro early 2008 4GB RAM, old Intel iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

You are probably experiencing the crop and or onscreen proofing bug that was introduced with AP 3.2 update. It is summarized well in the posts on this page:

We need to wait for Apple to fix this one (or you can look at some of the other posts in this forum for reverting back to 3.1.3 until the fix is issued). 😉
