Hi all,

I am setting up a flow to take a photo and then crop to a certain size at a set point but I am not getting any output using the jimp-image node's crop function. I have used other flavours of function for this node without any problem.

Any help gratefully received.

Look at your screen shots - you have `msg` selected for the parameters x, y, w, h but are trying to set values. `msg` is for passing the parameters into node dynamically. Change `msg` to number.
