Briefings
A user named 'Seam Cutter' created a specific image cropping tool for horizontal or vertical cuts, allowing relative sliding of crop edges. This tool was developed to address the need for cropping middle sections of images, such as redacting irrelevant prompts from transcripts, while using the existing Tailor tool on iPhone for stitching screenshots. The evidence indicates the tool is a standalone utility rather than a feature of a larger platform, with no mention of a specific city, region, or country of origin.
Key points
- The Seam Cutter tool allows users to create horizontal or vertical cuts across images by sliding two sides relative to each other.
- The tool was built to help users crop out middle sections of images, such as redacting irrelevant prompts from transcripts.
Context
The user's motivation stems from the need to crop middle sections of images, specifically for redacting irrelevant prompts from transcripts. The tool is designed to work alongside the existing Tailor tool on iPhone for stitching screenshots into long images.
Limitations
The evidence is limited to a single user's description of a specific tool they built. No specific version numbers, release dates, or technical specifications are provided. The tool's functionality is described as a standalone utility, and its specific capabilities beyond cropping are not detailed.
