geeeteee Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 As an ex Photoshop user, there is a facility missing from PDN (or at least I can't find it!) In Photoshop there was a tool which allowed me to type in a width and a height and a unit of measurement, for instance, 6, 4 and inches which would give me a 6x4 ratio image. I could then drag a rectangle across my image, and the crop box would remain in the correct ratio, making for very easy cropping when preparing images to be printed. Is there a similar way in PDN to achieve this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) see just above the drawing screen it says selection tool, selection mode and then normal. there is a wee little arrow to the right of the word normal clik that you can set a specific size or ratio option. if you clik fixed ratio another two boxes pop up to the right where you can put in #'s or if you want specific fixed size you just clik that and there will be the same two boxes pop up to the right that you put in your 4 x 6 and also note that another box appears as well where you can change to inches or pixels etc. hope that's as clear ciao Oma Edited February 24, 2011 by oma Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
