You can see this in the title bar - the top left corner of Gimp.
You then crop side B of the coin.
What is the size of this image in pixels?
Hi,
When I crop, I paste the image as a new layer.
I then resize the layer of e.g. Side B to match Side A. This means that if the layer boundary exceeds the image boundary significantly it makes resizing more difficult - I cannot apply the image pixel height to a layer which has added additional vertical space. it is comparing apples with bananas. Also, the vertical space added is inconsistent from one cropped image to another meaning I cannot use the layer height of one image as reference for resizing the other.
I guess my question would be - how do I paste a cropped image into a new layer, and force that new layer's boundaries to align with the cropped image's boundaries. The extra space is unhelpful. I don't want extra space around the image when pasting it into a layer.
Also, the option to resize the layer boundary is very manual - there is no option to "snap" the layer boundary to the dimensions of the image within.
Thanks
Peter
