| <para>The selections are used to configure various image |
| processing functionality performed by the subdevs which affect the |
| image size. This currently includes cropping, scaling and |
| composition.</para> |
| |
| <para>The selection API replaces <link |
| linkend="vidioc-subdev-g-crop">the old subdev crop API</link>. All |
| the function of the crop API, and more, are supported by the |
| selections API.</para> |

| <para>See <xref linkend="subdev"></xref> for |

| <section> |
| <title>Types of selection targets</title> |
| |
| <para>There are two types of selection targets: actual and bounds. |
| The ACTUAL targets are the targets which configure the hardware. |
| The BOUNDS target will return a rectangle that contain all |
| possible ACTUAL rectangles.</para> |
| </section> |

| <section> |
| <title>Discovering supported features</title> |
| |
| <para>To discover which targets are supported, the user can |
| perform <constant>VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G_SELECTION</constant> on them. |
| Any unsupported target will return |
| <constant>EINVAL</constant>.</para> |
