When I try to crop an image in LibreDraw, there’s no left crop handle.
I’m using LibreDraw 24.8.3.2. I just updated to this version, but it also wasn’t working in the previous version I had installed.
Thank you.
Could it be just one image and for that the left crop handles are out of view? Zoom out until you can see the entire image.
If necessary change the page size to something bigger, e.g. A0, make the crop and reduce back to normal page size
In the sample attached, can you crop the left hand side in both images to the start of “LibreOffice”?

If you cannot see the left crop handles for the top image in the attachment, then start in LibreOffice Safe Mode and test cropping the images in the attachment. Click Help > Restart in Safe Mode > Continue in Safe Mode.
.
If it works in Safe Mode then you might like to reset your profile in one of the ways described. Be sure to make a back up of it first, LibreOffice user profile - The Document Foundation Wiki
.
[Edit]
For raster images I prefer to use a dedicated graphics program to modify them. I normally do this first before inserting the modified image into Draw.
Another alternative would be to right click the the image and select Edit in external program, crop the image there and close the program, click yes to save.
Evening! To each of your recommendations…
- I can see the entire image, but no left crop handle.
- I haven’t tried changing the page size…yet.
- When I opened your sample file, I couldn’t see the left crop handles for either image.
- When I restarted in safe mode I still couldn’t see the left crop handles.
- I’ll try editing in an external program, but would sure like to know what the issue is with Draw.
Thanks so much for the troubleshooting ideas!
