Steps for Resizing Images in Canvas

Here's a more detailed, step-by-step guide:

Open Your Canvas Project: Start by opening your project in canvas that contains the image you wish to resize.
Select the Paint Object: Identify and select the image object on the canvas. This will typically be a paint object. Make sure you are not editing the object, as this may prevent you from resizing the image correctly.
Navigate to the 'Crop' Option: In the menu, locate the "Image" menu, then choose "Area," and finally, select "Crop." This will bring up the dialog box to change the image size.
Check Current Image Size: The dialog box will display the image's current width and height. This is helpful for making informed decisions about the new size.
Specify New Dimensions: Look for the "New Size" area. Input your desired width and height values for the resized image. Consider using aspect ratios for even scaling.
Apply Resizing: After entering the desired new sizes, apply or confirm the changes. This will resize the image according to your specifications.

Image Quality: Resizing an image to a much larger size can result in pixelation or loss of quality. It's often best to scale down or up slightly to maintain visual appeal.
Aspect Ratio: If you want to avoid stretching or compressing the image, maintain its original aspect ratio. You can do this by ensuring the width and height are changed proportionally.
Object Type: The process described is specific to images within paint objects on a canvas. Other types of objects may use different resizing procedures.
