    Image Cropper - Is there a way to use media instead of file upload?

    I'm using umbraco7 and ucomponents is not an option as it does not support it.

    Hi Christopher

    The way I normally add the Image Cropper functionality to images uploaded to the Media Section, is to update the existing Image Media Type's 'umbracoFile' property to use a Data Type based on the Image Cropper.

    enter image description here

    Now when files are uploaded to the media section I can see their crops

    enter image description here

    And if I have a document type that has picked a media Item say for a property called relatedImage, I can get it's CroppedUrl using GetCropUrl...

    @{
    string croppedImageUrl = String.Empty;
     var relatedImage = Umbraco.TypedMedia(model.Content.GetPropertyValue("relatedImage"));
                                if (relatedImage != null)
                                {
                                    croppedImageUrl = relatedImage.GetCropUrl("CropAlias");
                                }
    }
