Crop to content - hendrikbez - 05-14-2020

Good day

I am trying to crop an image that is in a 454x454

So I go to Layer>crop to content
It choose the image that I need, but what must I do after it has choose the image.
I have try to just enter, but that does not work.


RE: Crop to content - rich2005 - 05-14-2020

There are two 'crop-to-content' (1) Image -> Crop-to-content (2) Layer -> Crop-to-content.

Are you using the correct version. Layer -> Crop to content sizes the layer around the content and leaves the canvas size the same. The only indication will be the yellow dotted layer boundary.

Image -> Crop to content will shrink the canvas.

Post the image you are trying to crop for better advice.

edit: this a very short demonstration of the difference between layer and image crop https://i.imgur.com/jNlGfei.mp4
