I know I can do this in Fireworks but I've been trying to learn how to do this in Photoshop and can't figure it out.

When you're cropping an image in Fireworks (or any other type of selection box) you can use the keyboard to move the box around, increase or decrease it in size horizontally or vertically all using the keyboard using CTRL + SHIFT + (arrow keys) in 1px increments.

I really love this feature - how can I do this in Photoshop?

Hi there,

I'm not sure you can do that in PS.

You can nudge a selection outline around with the arrow keys and then crop the selected area by choosing the crop command, you can add pixels to one side of a selection, and subtract them from the other side, but you can't do it using keyboard shortcuts, and you can't do it as effeciently as you can inside FW.

Hope that helps
