Simple cropping with Paperclip

Question

I would like to crop images on upload using Paperclip to get square thumbs from the center of the original picture. I find out a method in documentation that seems to do exactly what I want: transformation_to(dst, crop = false) The problem is that I can't figure out where to use this method. It would be great to simply pass something as a parameter here: ``` has_attached_file :picture, :styles => { :medium => "600x600>", :thumb => "something here" } ```

Accepted Answer

You only need to use # instead of > as a parameter:

```
has_attached_file :picture, :styles => { :thumb => "200x200#" }
```
