To move images in Paint 3D, you simply select and drag them on the canvas.
Moving and Resizing Images in Paint 3D
Paint 3D offers intuitive tools for moving and manipulating images. Here's a breakdown of how to achieve this:
Moving Images:
- Selection: Click on the image you want to move. This will activate the selection box around the image.
- Dragging: Click and hold your mouse button on the selected image and drag it to your desired location on the canvas.
- The reference mentions, "Select and drag the model to move it around the canvas." This simple drag-and-drop method applies to images too.
Resizing Images:
- Selection: Ensure the image is selected; you'll see white boxes at the corners and sides.
- Dragging Handles: Click and drag these white boxes to resize the image.
- Corner Handles: Dragging corner handles will resize the image proportionally.
- Side Handles: Dragging side handles stretches the image in the horizontal or vertical direction.
- The reference explains this process as: "Select and drag the little white boxes on the corners and sides of the box surrounding the object to enlarge, shrink, or stretch the object however you want."
Practical Insights:
- Precise Placement: You can use the arrow keys on your keyboard for small, incremental movements.
- Multiple Selections: To move multiple images simultaneously, hold down the
Shift
key while selecting them.
By using these techniques, you can easily move and resize images within Paint 3D to arrange your composition effectively.
