saxieguy Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I have stitched together a picture and cropped it to by 21"x7" so that it can be printed as three separate 7x5 photos and framed together to make a pano. Right now the "master" image is perfectly sized at 21x7. When I try to cut out the first 7x5 portion, it resizes to 5.25x3.75 when I paste into a new image. If I resize it from there it becomes distorted. I've been using the retangle selector set to fixed size (7x5); and selecting cut from then paste into new image from the edit menu. How can I get the pasted image to be the same size as the one that is cut? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 It's not actually being resized. The two images simply don't have matching DPI (resolution), and so the conversion from pixels to inches is different. Use Image->Resize to match up the DPI (resolution). 1 Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxieguy Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thanks Rick! Worked like a charm. Once I got out of my own way and only changed the DPI (not pixels or inches) on the new image to match the DPI on the original it was perfect. Thanks again!
