AEM 6.1 Touch UI: how to configure aspect ratios for cropping images?

[anne-kathring54]

If I edit an image component (e.g. http://localhost:4502/editor.html/content/geometrixx/en/products.html, the "Triangle"), I get a selectbox with aspect ratios (Free Hand, 2:3, Square, ...). How can I add/delete aspect ratios to this selectbox?

Thanks,
Anne

Here is the screenshot of a cropping operation in AEM:

See this older community thread that talks about this.

Hope this helps point you in the right direction.

Hi Anne, somehow I am not able to see that option ! can you share a screenshot so that we get to know what exactly it is

Here is the nodes that need to be modified for this use case:

You have to go to fullscreen modus while editing the image to see this options.

Hm no, this does not help. It seems the path /libs/dam/gui/content/assets/crop/items/actionbarcontainer/items/default/items/aspectratio/items mentioned in this older thread does not exist in AEM 6.1
And also if it would exist: in a classic dialog I can add different cropConfig to each image widget in a dialog. And I need different cropConfigs for different components so it would not help to extend the central aspect ratios under /libs or somewhere else. I need a per component solution as in classic UI.

Thanks for your answer anyway :)

I will search for this answer within Adobe.

There is an example in Adobe - i will write up a community article and post here ASAP.

That would be great! We have the same problem. Thanks!

The image seems to be broken, could you please provide the path to the node? Thanks a lot!

Are there any updates on how to configure the aspect ratios?

[Lokesh_Shivalingaiah]

you need in the classic UI or touch UI ?

Here is a pic of the nodes - other one disappeared: 

Hope this helps....

Hi,

this only helps for components but not for the touchUI AssetEditor at the /assetdetails.html page (/libs/dam/gui/content/assets/editors/image).

e.g. http://localhost:4502/assetdetails.html/content/dam/geometrixx/portraits/scott_reynolds.jpg

Is there any solution to config this aspected ratios without overriding the default-settings inside the coral.js?

CUI.imageeditor.plugins.Crop.ASPECT_RATIOS = [

  {name: 'free_hand', ratio: 0},

  {name: '2_to_3', ratio: 0.67},

  {name: '3_to_5', ratio: 0.6},

  {name: '16_to_9', ratio: 0.5625},

  {name: 'square', ratio: 1}
