Image Crop Issues
Generally the crop tool is very poor in behaviour. Moving the image within the crop frame is not smooth and it doesn't snap to the frame, making it very difficult not to cut of parts of the image on...
This is still definitely an issue. The issue is not that Storyline puts a black border on all images, even if cropped correctly - the issue is, as Niels pointed out, that cropping in Storyline is not smooth and there's no way to lock the image to the crop boundaries, so if you're just trying to slide an image to the right, let's say, to get what you want in the crop boundaries, the image moves all over the place. And as Niels said, you can't tell if you've got it perfectly cropped on the edges until you preview the slide. Then even if you think you got it right, once you preview you see that thin annoying black line and have to go back and blindly try again - it's just a game of trial and error until you can get it right. Honestly, just allowing us to use a key on the keyboard to lock the image to the crop edges would be a huge help. This is something that my entire team complains about.
For reference, I am on the latest version of Storyline.
