Is there a "Trim to all layers"

Fri Feb 05, 2016 11:50 am
Hello,

if i create a quick collection by create some "file layers", convert to "paint layers", i wanna do a "Trim to all layers" to resize canvas so all layers fit in?
I cant find such a thing.

Hi, I am not sure to understand what you want to do.
Maybe try 'Menu' > 'Image' > 'Trim to image size'.
It will crop all layers to your canvas size (and so remove the unnecessary/temp datas outside the canvas) .

But maybe you want to outcrop? so the canvas resize up to information outside the canvas?

There is not a dedicated feature automatic outcrop, but I have a workaround in my work:
- Be sure to be in all deselected first (Menu>Select>Deselect)
- Right-click on the layer (in layer docker)
- Choose in the contextual menu 'Select opaque' (Select Opaque can do selections outside the canvas limit)
- Then select in the toolbar the crop tool
- in the 'tool option' docker check the 'Grow' checkboxe'
- then click on the canvas with the crop tool
- The crop tool will auto-adjust to the size of the selection, even if this one is outside the canvas
- Press enter on keyboard to finish the crop action.
- Done.

There's also a menu option to grow the image to the size of the current layer, but not one to grow to the size of all current layers.

My workaround is:
- put all layers into a group
- duplicate entire group
- right click on the duplicated group -> flatten layer
- in top menu: Image -> trim to current layer
