Jcrop v0.9.3 Released (added minSize/maxSize)
Jcrop v0.9.3 is released. New and improved with the #1 most-requested feature: bounding minimum and maximum selection sizes.
I really didn’t think I’d get this implemented for a while, but so many people were asking for it, I took a stab at it. Turned out to be a little easier than I thought. I am putting up another update, even though there is still some more work to do.
This update adds two options:
| maxSize | array | [ w,h ] | Maximum dimensions |
|---|---|---|---|
| minSize | array | [ w,h ] | Minimum dimensions |
Some notes:
- If you specify a dimension as zero (0), it will not be bounded.
- If aspectRatio option is set, maxSize and minSize are ignored.
I’ll fold all this into the documentation soon. I also want to make a more comprehensive feature demo. I felt this bounding thing was a major gap that needed to be filled. (Note: In a future release, these settings should work with aspect ratios too.)
Thanks to those who asked about these missing options it happened a lot faster. It really helps to know what works well and what needs attention. So, leave a comment and let me know!

Again great job! Question, do you think this is stable enough to use on a website just yet?

Nice job! I only found out about jCrop last night from a comment in my blog post. Its good to have another jQuery-based image crop plugin to play around with. I wrote a small WordPress plugin that uses image cropping and I found that functionality in Image Area Select by Michal Wojciechowski. Now that I found jCrop, I’ll try it as well to see which one suits me.

The simplest way of working around this until it’s added is (assuming you are using ‘jcrop’ as your api var):
jcrop.setOptions({onChange:function(c)
{
if(c.w < 150)
{
jcrop.setSelect([c.x, c.y, (c.x + 150), (c.y + 150)]);
}
}});

only user can drag the initialized crop box.
Thanks in advance. Please help me out asap.

Is my eyes playing tricks on me or the Jcrop manual doesn’t have minSize/maxSize options in it?
I went straight to reading the manual and api stuff. I was going back and forth the Jcrop manual and thinking to myself, “Oh no, I really need minSize feature”. Until I decided to read the rest of the blog and realise it was implemented in 0.9.3. Phew!

I just can’t wait for aspectRatio to be used simultaneously with minSize/maxSize. So, I’m especially thankful to Harry’s workaround.

the truth very well, I have only one doubt, there will be some example database? a cut that you see the image through the form stored in a database.
Thank you!
