    ImageCropper not visible

    Hi,

    I just installed Umbraco 7 and read here (http://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2014/4/3/out-now-umbraco-710.aspx) there was a built-in ImageCropper. I wanted to test this ofcourse but this is not visible? 

    I changed the install to WebForms (as i'm used to writing usercontrols and xslt). Does this effect some functionality maybe?

    thanks

    Using webforms shouldn't affect it, but I would strongly suggest to use MVC. That's the way forward

    I think you need to created a datatype first.

    1. Go to the developer section and then to datatypes.
    2. Click on the create button and enter the name of your datatype
    3. Choose the "Image cropper" in the Property Editor dropdown
    4. Add your different crops and save the datatype
    5. Go to the settings sections and then to document types.
    6. Add a property to a document type and choose the datatype you just created.

    Oh i see! Thanks. Yes I know! I have to read up on MVC. I have to look for some tutorials on creating mvc code pieces in c# for umbraco. A simple contactform would be a great start i guess.
