Cropping in SketchBook Pro Mobile

Note:

SketchBook Pro Mobile doesn't currently have a Crop tool. However, if you've imported or scaled an image and you notice is has been cropped, this is due to the content being resized and expanded beyond the size of the canvas (not your view). If you undo this action, you can restore the content; otherwise, it will be lost.
