Image menu -> Fit Canvas To Layers 2. Image menu -> Resize Canvas Either probably do the job, only 1 minute 30 seconds so no great epic. https://youtu.be/2fgJX7msSEc -- rich2005 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

This is difficult because it's not Ps, and I get the impression you haven't had a chance to read through he manual yet. Perhaps you could upload an .xcf file that you're having problems with for us to see? https://filebin.net the come back here and give us the link.

[Gimp-user] resizing canvas question
I'm getting so frustrated with the lack of intuitive functioning of this program I'm just about ready to go back and pay for photoshop. Arghhh I have made a change in an image rotating part of it so that it now extends above the edge of the canvas. Resizing the canvas to layers does nothing. I had similar problems extending the canvas when I added an image from another file but nothing worked to fix that problem either. It was all so easy in photoshop- why is this so difficult -- View this message in context: http://gimp.1065349.n5.nabble.com/resizing-canvas-question-tp50350.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
