This is embarassing, because I know there must be something basic I'm missing.

If I hit 1:1 in the navigator window, the picture zooms in to 1:1. Fine.

Now I want to take a crop sample at 1:1. But when I hit the crop icon, it zooms back out to the full shot.

Can someone clue me in? How can I get a crop from 1:1?
 
Great idea Denis - I can think of another use I'll have for Rulers too. Much obliged ;)
 
Denis, nifty tool, thanks! I've been kinda looking for something like this, but everything I've found is more clunky than helpful. This will fit nicely for me.
 
I often look at images 1''% in PS in full screen mode and if I particularly like the framing I do a screen capture [Prnt Scrn key in Windows or Cmd+ Shft+3 on a mac] and save to use as a desktop image. So I'd simply do the same in LR, view at 1''%, screen grab and then import image. Not a one click solution, but quite easy to do.

I did not mention it because by doing this, you are loosing color management. The OP wanted to keep it with adjustments he made...
