I am using the integrated image field type with the possibility to crop images. It is an excellent feature. For one project I am trying to work with some images that need to be cropped with a fixed aspect ration, for instance 1:2. I can do the same in PHP but that does not show the user what will be the result before the image is saved and viewed. Also it is quite difficult for some to prepare images according to the aspect ratio required so nothing needed is cropped actually.
I look at cropper that is a part of the ProcessPageEditImageSelect module. Cropper does have the possibility to set the aspect ratio but it is not used in the module itself. Is there any programatical way to force the cropper to use a specific aspect ratio without any need to mess around with core modules?
