Canvas Size Tool Properties

Resize the image, change the DPI, enlarge or crop the canvas.

Activate the Canvas Size by clicking the button in the Tools panel or by tapping Ctrl + Alt + C (on Windows) / Cmd + Alt + C (on macOS).

Activate the Image Size by clicking the button in the Tools panel and enabling the 'Image Size' option or directly by using Ctrl + Alt + I (on Windows) / Cmd + Alt + I (on macOS).

To resize the image, set the width and height in pixels, centimeters or inches. Set the DPI of the new image by typing the values in the edit boxes. Confirm by hitting the OK button at the bottom of the canvas.

You can also resize the image interactively by clicking on one of the control points and dragging the image to the desired size.

Enable 'Lock Ratio' or use the Shift shortcut to scale the image proportionally.

To enlarge or crop the canvas, deselect the 'Image Size' checkbox, then click and drag one of the control points. Confirm by hitting the OK button at the bottom of the canvas.

Choose which image interpolation algorithm should be used when changing the canvas size :

• Nearest - Each pixel is calculated from 1 source pixel (1x1) after the resize. The results give the most pixelated outcome.

• Bilinear - Each pixel is calculated from 4 source pixels (2x2) after the resize. The quality of the outcome is better than in 'nearest'. The bilinear interpolation is used in Rebelle standard edition by default.

• Fractal - Upscale and enlarge your images in the most accurate way.
