I am using ImageGen 2.5.7 on a Umbraco 4.7.1.1 installation.
We have for a long time experienced a problem with class defines crop-settings. The images wont crop to our settings under the media file section.
Example: I upload a image to the media section. I then go to "Crops" tap and then make som adjustments to the crop placement and size.
These changes dont reflect on the front end?
I have discovered the following:
When i save the image all the cropimages are generated with new timestamps on the file system.
The crop size and placement don't update to my newly settings.
If i change multiple crops in one save i get an Error (trying to get it from the logs).
Howewer if i make a smal change to the size of the crop (drag the handle) in 1 crop only. That crop change will be updated to the filesystem. All other crops are still getting new timestamps, but wrong crops.
Hmm if you use the ImageGen crop there shouldn't be a Crop tab on your media item. Perhaps you are using 2 different crops. Could you post how you render the image? If you use the Umbraco Image Cropper perhaps this package might help: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/create-crops
Crops dont change

@Jeroen: Thats sounds interesting. I render the image with the following code:
@Helper.Media.Image.RenderImage(media.cropset, "CampaignImageWide");
With some research if think it is the build-in "Image Cropper"-data type which is giving me some trouble. Not ImageGen. Sorry.
You could try the DAMP Gallery. It's a full image gallery which also uses the build-in Image Cropper. The source code is also available.
