GIMP :: Simple Layer Resize

Sep 9, 2013

My end goal is to create simple bitmaps that only contain a bit of text in them in black and white.

To do this I am creating a new image and some default size. I then add the text , set the background colour to black and the text colour to white and create my text.I am using the snap to canvas edge and sit it up in a corner.I then want to resize the who canvas to be the same size as the text block created and save the image. How to do this?I have seen the crop tool and can select the area I want but cant figure out how to save this as a new canvas/image sized only to the size of the text.

GIMP :: Resize Text Layer To Align Borders With Edges

Jun 30, 2012

I am trying to re size my text layer so that the borders would align with the edges of the text, but every time I adjust the upper part of the layer the text itself would shift downward, cutting off the lower part of the text. Is there a way I can conveniently adjust the layer so that it looks like the text fits the layer.

Example I am trying to achieve is something like this.

The problem I keep getting is this.

Photoshop :: Resize Layer With Smart Filter Without Affecting Aspect Of Layer

Jan 10, 2013

I made a wax seal on Photoshop with a lot of embossment, bedevilment and a Smart Filter. It's done and I just need to make it smaller so it fits well on my certificate. When I resize it (Ctr + T) It pops up a message that reads: 
______________________________________________
Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended
 
"Smart Filters applied to layers contained in this group will be turned off temporarily while the transform is being previewed. They will be applied after committing the transform."
 
OK
 
[] Don't show again
______________________________________________
 
I click OK and I re-size the layer with free transform, and then hit enter. The Layer is resized but my Smart Filter which creates a wavy affect around the seal is totally distorted.
 
How do re-size my layer with smart filter without affecting the smart filter aspect of the layer.

Paint.NET :: How To Resize Images In One Layer To Be To Scale For Image In Another Layer

Mar 24, 2011

I would like to make a composite image with source images making up the various layers (so I can work my magic on each layer indepent of the others). The problem I have is that not all of the images I'm using are to the right scale. What I want to do is resize those layers that are too big. Here's an example...

Let's say I have 5 pictures that I want to use to make one composite image from. The main background layer will be made from an image that is, say 800x600.

Another picture (let's call this subject 1) is 600x600 and is already at the right scale if I cut out the portion I want to keep and lay it on top of the background layer.

Yet another picture (subject 2) is huge (think 2000x2000). I would like to cut out the portion I would like to use and drop it in as a new layer and then obviously re-size it down to the correct scale. I'd prefer to do this directly in the composite image I'm making on its own layer to ensure I get the size right (and without manipulating the image guess-work style before I cut/paste it in).And so on...

I've found ways to make the canvas bigger (not what I want to do)... but not anything on how to resize the images on individual layers without impacting the other layers. Is there a way to do this?

Photoshop :: How To Resize/flip A Layer?

May 12, 2004

This may be a simple process but I just can't find how I can do it. Not even in the help document.

How can I resize of the image in a single layer without changing the other layers?

How can I flip the image in a single layer without affecting the other layers?

I know how to do that for the whole image but not for a single layer.

Photoshop :: Layer Styles Resize On Flattening

Mar 28, 2008

The problem is about the layer style blending options in Photoshop. I like to work in high resolution big canvases when I paint, and once in a while I like to use the style options on some layers, like... drop shadow, outer glow, stroke, color overlay and all that stuff. ..But everytime I flatten, resize or rasterize the image the layer style either changes or dissapears!

Here's an example:
In the first image I've used bevel&emboss, outer glow, and drop shadow.
In the second image it's how it looks like when I've flattened or resized the image.

Anyone know how to solve this?

I've tried to..
flatten all layers at once
flatten the layers one by one
merge visible
merging only the comission info-layer with an empty one below it
rasterizing it, or rasterizing all the text before merging it
converting it to a smart object before merging
merging everything but the commission info-layer, and then flatten it

Strangly the Layer 9 that has drop shadow to it doesn't get affected or changed when I merge/flatten/resize.

I haven't touched the settings. Lately I've also been having some problems with layers set to multiply. In some cases they can't be merged properly without looking weird. (Though resizing and saving for.jpg works fine).

Photoshop Elements :: How To Resize Layer Or Picture

Feb 8, 2014

I am brand new to anything PhotoShop. I have created a talk balloon that I plan on putting it on a photo. I have the text on it already. However, the area outside of the balloon must be tranparent. I made it transparent pixel by pixel. There must be an easier way. So my two questions are:

1. How to make an area of a picture or layer transparent?

2. How to resize a layer or .jpg picture or any picture that can be edited by PS Elements 12

Tried to include the talk balloon file but it failed because of the content.

Photoshop :: Resize Layer Relative To Image Size?

Aug 19, 2013

I'm automating a custom watermark action for a series of photos (1000's) the orignals vary in size so thats my first hurdle to accomodate, the final water mark will comprise of a white stroke offset say -5 mm(but again ideally relative to each images size) and then placing a PDF logo at 20% opacity and placed centrally.
 
The problem I have is that I want the logo to be at the same scale throughout the sets of images, ideally the stroke too.So my question is can this be achieved in PS, scaling relative to document because all I can seem to do is specify a size or percentage.
 
A work around I considered is basing the final image size on a set width or height and then using a standard size for the logo and stroke just thought I'd try the hard way first.

Photoshop :: Resize A Layer To Maximum Height OR Width?

Dec 3, 2012

I'm making an action that I'm going to batch apply to a lot of images.
 
However I've hit a snag, I need to resize a layer with variable width/height to fit within a certain width/height while constraining ratios. Say I need a layer to be a maximum of 1000px high OR a maximum of 2000px wide, whichever comes first. I need the layers to either increase or decrease in size to fit the "frame".

GIMP :: How To Resize Rectangle

Jun 20, 2012

Just starting using GIMP today and want to do what I thought should be very simple. I have some images for which I have words that need replacing. I therefor want to take a slice of the background colour and copy that overtop of the text. I have tried to use the rectangle tool to copy and paste the slice. However I am unable to workout how to expand the slice (expand the width) overtop of the text.. I thought it should be a simple matter of dragging the rectangle out to the desired width. I have also tried changing the pixel amount in the Tool options section. how to expand a rectangle?

GIMP :: Resize To 6 X 4 Inches?

May 23, 2013

I'm using Gimp 2.8 to change print size to 6 x 4. Original image is 1600 x 1200. So I go to „Print Size“ and change size in inches to 6 x 4 (naturally unlinking „chain“ symbol). I then save the image but when I reopen its at 6 x 4.5 and of course it prints this size.

GIMP :: How To Resize A Dialog

Dec 12, 2013

Using GIMP 2.8.10 in Windows 8.1. The two default dialogs open are Layers and Brushes. The Layers dialog takes most of the space. I want to shrink it vertically but when I try to drag up the cursor with the two vertical arrows it moves by itself without resizing the dialog. When I do the same horizontally it works fine. I would like to see less of the Layers dialog and more of Brushes dialog. How do I do this?

Photoshop :: How To Resize Layer In Percentage Relative To Image Size

May 2, 2013

Say I have an image that is 100x100 pixels. And I want to take one of the layers and resize it to 50% of the image size, so that it is 50 pixels. How can I accomplish that?
 
The reason I ask, is that have multiple images all with different size. But I have a signature (ie. watermark) that is always the same size. I want to be able to place this signature, and then resize it to XX% of the image it was placed on. That way, it should always have the same proportions.

GIMP :: Dynamic Resize Via Second Mouse?

Nov 5, 2011

I usually plug a drawing tablet and it works great with GIMP on a Ubuntumachine.

What I want to ask is this:

I want to plug a mouse. Normally movements either of the pen on the tabletor of the mouse are mapped to the cursor.I want to keep the mouse plugged while unattaching it from the cursor. Sothe cursor is only tablet driven. Then I want the brush size to be driven by the Y value of the mouse, whileI drow with the tablet.

Maybe editing the input devices editor? Or will I have to operate on Xserver also?

GIMP :: Text Disappearing When Trying To Resize?

Nov 28, 2012

Regarding Gimp version 2.8.2, I'm posting text to a picture, the trouble is when I highlight and try to resize the text it disappears. The text layer is still on top and the eye is still visable, so the text should be visable.. I have tried different fonts and colors and sizes with no success.

GIMP :: How To Crop And Resize Image

Oct 2, 2011

Is there a way to just splice my image up into 16 512x512 squares? like a tile set (which by the way I'm sure my math is screwed up on that so how many squares I need to cut out a 2048x2048 image for 4 on top and 4 on the sides that'd be great. I suck at math)

I tried copping and stuff but I can't seem to use the tools right. I wrote a lengthy detailed version of this but figured it was too much to read so I am editing/cutting all the details out

Also the resize part. nevermind I got it figured, I just had to resize the image and the canvas follows suit. I didn't know that, thought I had to resize canvas first then image like in photoshop.

GIMP :: Rotate / Resize Always Crops The Image

Jul 10, 2011

When Rotating or Resizing an image I have recently run into an issue. This is new behavior so I think I either have something set incorrectly, or it came in with a recent re-install.

When Rotating or Resizing, and setting Clipping to Adjust, it always Crops the image.

In other words: If I were to attempt to stretch an image bigger than 1000x1000 to say 1500x1500 it appears to do all the correct calculations, and does stretch the image, but anything outside the original 1000x1000 disappears.

Likewise if I were to attempt to rotate an image that were say, 1000x1500, 90°, I would end up with a rotated image 1000x1000 in size, and transparent/background for the balance of the original 1000x1500 sized image.

I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling (it remembered all my settings, so I don't know how much good this might have done), setting the Clipping option to Clip, then Crop and back to Adjust again (also with no result).
