Hey. I was wondering how you could crop a png within Thunkable without photoshopping it. Help would be much appreciated šŸ™‚ ---

Hi there, The [Cloudinary API](https://cloudinary.com/documentation/admin_api#update_details_of_an_existing_resource) has functions for editing an image, including cropping. Are you making some kind of photo editing app? šŸ˜€ ---

Thank you for your answer! šŸ˜ Iā€™m making a physics formula-solving app, and I needed a cropped image of a certain symbol. ---

I would generally edit assets that donā€™t need to be further edited during app run-time before adding them to your Thunkable app. That said, learning to work with a photo editing API is a great skill anyway, and will give you the ability to make apps that do things like edit photos in the future! ---

What are the blocks required in Thunkable to crop the image? ---

There arenā€™t any specific blocks for that. You just change the url for the image you want to display in order to crop it. See [Dynamically Resizing and Cropping Images | Cloudinary](https://cloudinary.com/documentation/resizing_and_cropping), especially the section that shows examples and urls for cropped images. ---

Thereā€™s an example right on that web page: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/6/362811159fe1e039fc549091ae5fd1dcd6485241.jpeg) They used the url [https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/c\_crop,h\_200,w\_200/docs/models.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/c_crop,h_200,w_200/docs/models.jpg), which means that the original image was [https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/docs/models.jpg](https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/docs/models.jpg) (if I remove the part of the url between ā€œupload/ā€ and ā€œdocsā€). With another sample image with this url: ```auto https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/lady.jpg ``` You would replace ā€œupload/ā€ with ā€œupload/c\_crop,h\_400,w\_200/ā€ ```auto https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/c_crop,h_400,w_200/lady.jpg ``` This project has the blocks I used (see the first screen): [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/cef9bad1b8d3035d18f59aa68aeab8bd) And a screenshot of those blocks. For some reason, variables arenā€™t working on that screen. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/6/468ae5a77939f3f0193f0424620e2522cee54384.png) ---
