    Yes it should be possible by using API calls such as findwindow and sendmessage

    Some software also includes its own API that allows you to call certain functions.

    I don't use Photo Shop so am not familiar with it enough to give any specifics.

    You could search for examples that use findwindow and sendmessage and that should help get you started
    Always use [code][/code] tags when posting code.

    It would be much easier to create your own methods for this purpose, as PhotoShop might not expose those objects, and it will take you weeks instead of days. Also remember that PhotoShop takes up a lot of processor speed and time, whereas going GDI in your app is much faster

    Cropping a picture is explained here :
