I want to use thumbnails (max. 400px width). That means thumbnails can be 400px, but not always they should be 400px width. They can be even less. So, in the same page, one thumb 400px, one 320px and one 350px.

I want to crop them using the WordPress crop tool.
I’ve been able to get the thumbs both correctly cropped and 400px. What I can’t get is a thumb less than 400px (I’ve setted that width in the media options).
In other words, WordPress always set the thumb to 400px, despite of how I edited the images. I would like it to consider 400px only the max width instead, so I can edit and image to to have the thumbnails cropped (I mean with the edit tool) and resized say, to 320px.
Another way to say it: I want WordPress to serve the thumbnails 400px width only if I didn’t resized them less than 400px.
Is there any way to do it?
From my understanding on how WordPress crops, it’s not going to stretch your image to a certain size, so if you upload an image that is 300px wide, it isn’t going to stretch the image to 400px, it will keep that width and proportionally create a height. Make sure that
is checked in the media section of your settings. If you’re looking for new image sizes you can use
add_image_size().If you want to size down an already created thumbnail, you can click the image to edit it (inside the tinyMCE) and size it down there. You will be given percentages and a little box on how it might look inside your content.
