Hi Greg -

To my knowledge, NO!

The cropping options allow rectangular selections only & the choice of changing aspect ratio & customising.



Circular cropping would need to be carried out using other software.

thanks Tony, any recommendations on software that will allow circular cropping?

Greg -

Any half decent graphics software (as opposed to photo cataloguing/adjustment) will have that facility. Paint.NET, which is freeware, can select & crop in a variety of shapes (including circles).
