Is there a way to add vignette to a cropped photo on ACR? When adding vignette w/ ACR, the vignette is added to the entire frame. ACR does not recognize that your photo has been cropped & it does not re-adjust where the vignette will be added. Is there a work around or a setting that I need to check off?

Note: I know there are several ways to vignette, but I just wanted to know if there is a way w/ ACR on a cropped photo.

**The title should be "Adding Vignette w/ ACR"

Not that I've found. I have had the same problem. I was hoping that ACR 4.3 move fix the issue but unfortunately not.

Nope. All you can do is either adjust amount and how much it comes into the center. So if the crop is off center, you're out of luck. You could do it in PS proper off course...

The reason that ACR (and LR) can not do it is because you are always working on the entire image. Remember that ACR and LR edits are non-destructive and all of your edits are global. Therefore even though your image is "cropped" it is not "cropped" until you export it or Save it as a JPEG/TIFF with edits applied.
