Crop Rotation blues

[JG_C...@adobeforums.com]

Not an agricultural question.

In CS I have an action which opens a series of files and places a crop marquee in it. I do the crop, hit enter to save it, go on to the next one. I have a lot on files to process and this is quick and easy.

Problem: I have a landscape image and landscape crop marquee, all is well. If I need a vertical crop on the landscape image, I rotate the crop marquee 90 deg. When I do, PS rotates the final image 90 deg, so now my upright volleyball player is on his ear. I have to go back and use Dr. Brown's to re-rotate.

I realize when cropping one-at-a-time I can quickly change the aspect ratio on the crop toolbar, but I am trying to maximize the workflow. Is there a way to get PS to knock off doing this?

Thanks;
Jim
