WD97: Can't Crop Object with SHIFT Key (Dragging Size Handle)

In Microsoft Word 97, pressing the SHIFT key while dragging a sizing handle does not crop an object.

This is a functionality change from earlier versions of Microsoft Word.

To crop an object, choose one of the following methods:

Method 1:

Select the object, click Object on the Format menu, click the Picture tab, and then change the appropriate Crop From option.

Method 2:

Using the right mouse button, click the object, click Format Object, click the Picture tab, and then change the appropriate Crop From option.

Method 3:

Display the Picture toolbar (click Toolbars on the View menu), click the Crop button on the Picture Toolbar, position the insertion point over a sizing handle, and then click and drag the sizing handle. When you are finished, click the Crop button again to turn cropping off.
