How do I make the boundary fit the item? - marigolden - 12-05-2019

I made a new layer to trace part of the image with the path tool and fill it in with color to solve the blur on a simple cartoon eye as the wonderful akovia showed me in a message. Then I copy pasted (for the 2nd eye) I realized the boundary was as big as the image itself, meaning the dash-lined square around the item, is all the way out so it's harder to move around and resize. How do I bring it in to fit the item?

Mk that worked thank you...I used to use that on finished images but I noticed when I pasted said images into microsoft word they would come out cut off on some of the edges, and sometimes even when I opened the png file itself. I think it should be fine though as it's just within the image vs the edges of the full image.
