To resize an image or document in Photopea, you can adjust its dimensions and scale the content accordingly. Here’s a breakdown of how to do it:
Resizing using Image Size
The primary way to resize in Photopea is through the "Image Size" option. This allows you to change the document's resolution, affecting its physical dimensions and pixel count.
- Step 1: Open your image in Photopea.
- Step 2: Go to the Image menu in the top menu bar.
- Step 3: Select Image Size.
- Step 4: A dialogue box will open where you can enter new values for the width and height of your document.
- Step 5: You can also adjust the DPI (dots per inch) value here, which affects the print size of your image.
- Step 6: Enter your desired values. You can keep the aspect ratio by ensuring the "constrain proportions" chain icon is active. If you wish to change the aspect ratio, then click on the link icon to break the chain and adjust width and height separately.
- Step 7: Click OK to apply the changes.
Rotating and Flipping Images
Besides changing the dimensions, you can also transform your image using these options:
- Rotating: Go to Image > Transform > Rotate and select the desired rotation.
- Flipping: Go to Image > Transform and choose either Flip Horizontally or Flip Vertically to mirror the image.
