    I have a psd and I want to crop it to the region of interest like you do with a comp, but the option is grayed off
    someone know how to crop the element from the psd without masking it?

    Is this PSD in a comp already? If so Im not sure why the RoI is greyed out for you.

    If you don’t want to mask it, an alpha matte would give you the same result or you can crop the psd in photoshop and it’ll update in AE when you save.

    it’s one of the layers of the psd but it’s not in a comp.
    I can’t crop it in photoshop because the composition in photosop is in like 1080X1920
    and there is more elements to the composition so I can’t seperate them,
    so I can go to photoshop and crop this specific element and import in again to after
    but I thought that there is more easy and fast way to do it inside after effects.
    I guess there isn’t…
