[Darktable-users] Is it worth upgrading

Thanks for the answer Tobias. Is it possible for the image dimensions to be shown elsewhere as you free crop. If I zoom in enough to get an accurate crop with the given resolution of the mouse actions the text gets hidden off the preview area. Matt

Hi All. I asked this before (in a slightly different way) but had no response so I thought I would have another go. When cropping by hand I can’t get the exact crop I want. Using the mouse the numbers jump by two pixels a time. As an example, I have an image from a Canon 5D which is 5634x3753. I
