Crop shapes

The image editor support cropping custom shapes.  It will generate a png file where the cut out parts are transparent. 

To enable it check the "Shapes" setting:

Large files

The image editor runs in the customer's browser. Before the upload can start, the full image has to be decoded and drawn onto a canvas element so it can be edited. Large files, for example, print-ready gang sheets of 300MB and more, or images with very large pixel dimensions, can exceed the memory the browser allows for a single image.

Recommended setup for print-ready files

Disable the Editor on upload fields that receive print-ready files. Without the editor, the file is uploaded directly to the storage and never passes through the browser canvas. In this setup uploads of up to 5GB are supported.

This is the recommended setup for artwork that the customer has already prepared for print, where cropping or editing in the storefront is not needed.

If you need the editor for other products, use a separate upload config for the print-ready files and disable the editor only there. You can also limit the accepted image resolution on the upload config, see: How can I only allow specific image resolutions?
