I'm trying to crop a video that I made, just a little bit, but the crop tool inside power tools snaps to the edge. I need to get it right on. Is there any way to turn this snap off? I already turned off snap in the main program settings.

Thanks in advance!

you can turn off the snap on the Preview Viewer.

Unfortunately that doesn't solve the problem, and mine was already unchecked. The issue is when the Crop Video window shows up, I don't see anything on there about snapping. Also, increasing the size of the image using the % dropdown in the lower right hand corner still snaps at the same location as if you were zoomed out. You would think you'd have finer resolution when dragging the crop selection at higher magnification but it snaps at exactly the same spot regardless.

Add/check "Grid Lines" option, that should assist you to get the snap.

Nope, that doesn't do it either. I must be blind though, or I just didn't notice, but it is under the Safe for TV dropdown in the Crop Video window. I don't know why it's there, but that's where it is. Thanks for the help guys. SOLVED

BY THE WAY - It looks like you have to uncheck it every time! Lame!

Thank you, I was having this same problem.
