Remember the selection ratio/size

Here's a thing that has bugged me for a while. When cropping many images from a selection, I often want to use the same proportions and/or size. But XnView does not remember the latest ratio or size of the selection, so I have to choose them all over every time. My suggestion is that the size and ratio of selections are remembered.

If so, the choise "Free" should be added to "Set selection size", just as for "Set selection ratio".

Just make your selection, then (before you crop, or do anything that might remove the selection), click edit->selection size (or ratio)->set as custom. Now when you go to the next pic, just hit "C".

Man, thank you, this is just what I looked for. Sorry that I underestimated XnView!

A while back, Olivier, Dreamer, Pierre, me and some more people struggled in an intensive discussion to improve selection ratio. Looks like we have succeeded.
