   - **Bottom**: Remove pixels from the bottom (e.g., taskbar)
   - **Left/Right**: Remove pixels from the sides
3. Confirm the crop by clicking the **Apply Crop** button.
4. The video preview updates in real-time as you adjust.
5. To remove the crop, on the top-center of the screen, click the **Crop Screen** button again, click the **Reset** button, and click the **Apply Crop** button.

Combine cropping with **Inset Mode** for a professional look: crop away the browser chrome, then add padding and a shadow to make your content pop.
