Crop (3D)

Parameter Type
Keyframeable. For more information, see Global Versus Keyframeable Parameters.
Description
Trims the top, bottom, left, and right edges of an image.
Crop is at the bottom of the effects parameters hierarchy. It always crops the same four edges of the object no matter what orientation the object has. Cropping works only in 2D space so that 3D parameters such as Rotation and Position, which are higher in the hierarchy, take effect later in the processing. You don't need to adjust cropping before the other parameters, but it is difficult to crop edges if they are rotated to the vanishing point. For more information, see The Hierarchy of Parameters.

B (bottom)
Crops the bottom edge of the image. Values range from –999 (bottom) to +999 (top).

L (left)
Crops the left edge of the image. Values range from –999 (left) to +999 (right).
