Description
This tutorial is published by courtesy ofDescription: Featured as a Daily Deviation over a year ago, this tutorial about the crop and measurement tool certainly deserves attention. As ^znow-white puts it :
"If you lack a tripod sometimes you will find that your photos may turn out a little crooked. This will teach you how incredibly easy it is to straighten them, while and at the same time making the best of your composition."
Level: G - Guide

You explain application of crop very beautifully. I have seen many people using a method of Crop, which I never get to discover. They make a selection and than with the help of some shortcut key they crop that area. Many times I needed that method but I am always failed to find that shortcut key anywhere, nor the people I saw working this.
Do you or any one here knows that key for PC?

After a bit of Googling I came to this conclusion: that there are no default shortcut to cropping a selection. Instead, after making your selection, you have to go to Image->Crop.
BUT...
You can, of course, define your own shortcuts. Press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+K (two hands required), press Image and find Crop on the list that appears. This will let you set a custom shortkey that you can use later
Hope this helped. Eil

Wow, thanks for doing all that. I never look Crop under Image, I guess instead of defining my own shortcut key I (and all others) can do just Alt I followed by C, that will be fast and free to use any where else.
That did help, thanks a lot.

I know of it (again) It is when you have selection made by Crop tool. But well what I was seeking is, when you make selection with a regular selection tool, which I learn from Eil's answer to it.
