Plugin to crop image before saving?

Use case:
When saving a screen grab from the internet to a new note, I invariably only want some of the screengrab saved. Has anyone successfully used one of the plugins to crop the image before saving it? It would be handy to eliminate workarounds.

Workaround
I share it with WhatsApp first to a message to myself. In that message I edit the image, cropping the part that I wish to save. I then share that image with Obsidian and create a link in a new message.

It might be easiest to use a screengrab function that only captures part of the screen. Depending on what operating system you’re only there are probably tools that can do that.

Obsidian isn’t an image editor, so even if there’s a plugin to do it, it might not work the way you’d like.

I do that on Windows and it works great. But the issue I am having is with Android, I should have mentioned. Has anyone had success with such a partial screengrab tool on Android?
