### 7.57. Crop Layers to Content

The Crop Layers to content command automatically crops the selected layers, unlike the Crop Tool, or the Resize Layers to Selection command, which let you manually define the area to be cropped.

Este comando quita el área más grande posible alrededor del borde exterior que tiene el mismo color. Hace esto escaneando la capa a lo largo de una linea horizontal y una linea vertical y recortando la capa tan pronto como encuentra un color diferente, independientemente de su transparencia.

You can use this command to crop a layer to the dimensions of a subject that is lost in a solid background which is too large.

The active layer has been cropped to the size of the circle it contains. Its size is reduced, and the unoccupied part in the canvas is transparent, revealing the yellow and green colors of the underlying layer.
