# Cropping Images

If your system administrator has set up cropping for your images, you will see a similar interface when you edit your images:

![Options for editing images](https://3872888104-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FgEH4FChbCn7eDDqREvdE%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-4c0f4928de23e6cae0d123f24fbc0798b6dd341a%2Fcropping-images-v9.png?alt=media)

The pink circle in the middle of the image is the default focal point. The focal point defines the primary area or focus of the image which will be the center point of any image re-sizing. You can move the focal point by clicking and dragging it to the desired part of the image.

Next to the image, you may see specific crops of the image depending on your setup. In the above example, you can see that 2 crops have been set-up. To add or update the image crops, see [Adding properties](/umbraco-cms/13.latest/fundamentals/data/creating-media.md#adding-properties) section in the [Creating media](/umbraco-cms/13.latest/fundamentals/data/creating-media.md) article.

To manually alter the pre-defined crops:

1. Select one of the crops - you will see an enlarged version of the crop.
2. Drag the image around and zoom in or out until you have the desired result.

3. Once you are happy with your changes, click **Done** to save the changes.
4. If you wish to reset the crop to default view, click **Reset crop**.
5. Once you have finished editing the crops, click **Save and close**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/13.latest/tutorials/editors-manual/media-management/cropping-images.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
