Where's the crop tool?

[Gingerbread Guy]

Windows Vista x64 SP1
XnView 1.96

There's no crop tool on the Edit menu, like the help file says.
There's no crop tool on the toolbar.
Ctrl + Y doesn't do anything.
I thought it might have to do with the fact that I have the minimal version, but after getting the standard version, there's no difference.
I thought I might need to make a selection first, but whether I drag with the left or right mouse button, I get the 'move' cursor and no selection is made.

Wow. That's so hidden, it's more of an Easter egg than a feature

My settings were already those you described, but I didn't realize you had to press Enter with an image selected before cropping was available.

Thank you

Seriously! With default settings all you need to do is open image in xnview, select area with mouse, and hit crop button in the toolbar. I can't possibly imagine how to make the crop feature more accessible.

Well I don't use the default settings. I have images open up in full screen. I can make a selection there, but if I switch to browser mode, then back to full screen, it's impossible to make a selection again. I also use the preview area to view images 95% of the time and it's impossible to make a selection there too.
