Basically the title says it all- I open a portrait mode RAW file, and the crop button is not available.

    I have seen that also, it is quite random. It could be a issue to two or three photo in a row then start working again in same photo editing session. The good thing is that the Crop still works using under Canvas tools.

    The problem is I have not found a method to reproduce. It comes and goes. Plus work-a-round is only one click more.

    Same issues, however, crop tool unavailable using Canvas tools. Random occurrence on Imac 3.8 quad core, 32Gb, OS 10.15.6. Screen Shot attached.

    Hi Gary, 

    Please let me know whether you're able to access Crop via the Canvas tab on the right-side panel (see the screenshot: http://prntscr.com/tmej6f) 

    Usually, such a behavior occurs when the photo is not fully rendered. If you give it some time, does the Edit > Canvas tab menu become available?
