ESCAPE FROM THE CROP TOOL (OR DIE)

ESCAPE FROM THE CROP TOOL (OR DIE!)

Sometimes when you're using the Crop tool (C), you change your mind and decide not to crop. If this happens to you, do you have to crop and then press the undo shortcut? Nah, press the Escape key to cancel your crop and remove the cropping border. You can also click on the circle with a slash icon (the international symbol for "NO") on the far right of the Options Bar to cancel a crop. Okay, there's one more way: just switch tools a dialog will appear asking you if you want to complete the crop or not. Just hit Don't Crop.
