7. The Menus / 7.5 The Layer Menu
7.5.4 Change Layer Size
This function allows to change the size of an image layer. The image will
not be scaled, but pixels will be added or removed at the edges. The
alignment of the current layer content can be set via arrow-buttons. It is
possible to place the image with the mouse, too.
- New Size
- You can enter the new size and position with text fields. If the active
layer has a transparency channel, you can cut off the invisible parts with
Crop Size.
- Resize
- Resize is similar to New Size, but you enter the size difference instead of
the new size.
- Formula
- Formula allows to enter formulas as size and position. The following
variables are defined:
- w: current width
- h: current height
- You can use all formulas and expressions listed in "Unit Text Fields"
(chapter 3.3.7). The formula mode is mostly used in combination with
actions (see chapter 4.27).
