Crop
Crop surrounds the image with a crawling dashed line.
Move the mouse cursor to the middle of the dashed line.
The cursor will change to an edge-arrow shape.
Click and drag on the dashed line to select the
desired region of the image, then press the space bar or any
other key.

be removed.
Pressing the Escape key will abort cropping.
If part of the image is off the edge of the screen, use

the arrows on the numeric keypad).
