How do you change the image size and resolution in photoshop everytime I change the width the height changes my measurements will not stay

Can someone assist me with changing image size and resolution.  each time I change the width the height changes and vice/versa?

There's a chain link between width and height. The point is to keep the aspect ratio the same, otherwise your picture would get stretched.
You click on the chain-link to shut that off and you can adjust width and height separately.
Also could you give us your version of Photoshop, what OS you are running it on (Windows 7 for example) and what exactly you want to do with your document?
Resolution is the print term for how many pixels will be printed on an inch of paper. It doesn't apply if your image is intended for screen viewing.

  • Image Sizes and Resolution standards?

    are there any standards for image sizes and resolution for mobile games specifically: backgrounds and backdrops?
    i will be porting my game for various cell phones and i'd like to resize images to fit perfect on all cell phone screens, so what would be the best way to do this and what should my image attributes (height, width) be?
    i've tried researching on google to see if there were any standards and couldn't seem to find any. if these standards are non-existent what image sizes have you used that you found worked best on various mobile phones?
    thanks

    Google's right, there are no real standards for screen sizes. Some are more common than others, but there are dozens of common screen sizes.
    The most common are...
    176x208 (same as 176x220, but with no status bar)
    240x320
    176x220
    [Getjar resolution stats|http://www.mobref.com/statistics/world/gDispResolution]
    Unfortunately, many phones are slightly more or slightly less than those. If you cover those, you're fairly well off though. If you can make your game resolution independent, that's your best option, though with intricate overlays it may be nearly impossible to do.

  • How do you extend the frame from one side but not the whole thing?

    I am updating my blog and want to put a rectangle picture into the pre-set frame. I need to stretch it horizontally but the entire frame (i.e., both sides and top/bottom) stretched instead. How do you extend the frame from one side but not the whole thing?

    In Inspector, select the Graphic Inspector. Choose, from the Fill options, Image Fill. Select the image from the dropdown and click Open. Now go back to Inspector and click on Scale to Fit. Choose from the options in the window. There are a number of them which should address your problem:
    With the Blog template, you will probably need to insert a text box over the stock placement frame and work with that instead.

  • Image size and resolution question.

    Is an image at W 48.667 x H 32.444 inches at 72 res the same as an image that I could convert in photoshop to 300 res and then the with "Resample Image" clicked off would be W 11.68 x H 7.78 at 300 res for printing purposes? I'm asking this questions because after exporting 200 images from Lightroom 1.4, putting them into an wedding album I realized the images were not at 300 res but the first size listed above. I'm trying not to have to rebatch and have to put them back into the album. I sent the question to NAPP and got this back"
    "If you do the math you'll see that the answer is "no."
    48x72=3456 pixels; 32x72=2304 pixels
    11.68x300=3504 pixels; 7.78x300=2334 pixels."
    I did the math and it comes up to 5760 vs 5830. Pretty darn close. So would an image printed out with both settings print the about the same quality or am I missing something?
    Thanks
    Bob

    Bob's question is a common one. And one of the first that most of us struggled to understand. Let's see if I can shed some light to help clarify the matter.
    o The image starts out with a given number of pixels from the camera, scanner, or whatever was its source. The resolution only matters when it comes time to print the image.
    72 dpi was once a common resolution for displaying on a computer monitor. Today 90 dpi is more common monitor resolution.
    o Let's assume that the image is 3504 x 2336 pixels (which I got from his size @ 72 dpi).
    o In "image size", if you do _not_ have 'resample image' checked, all you are doing is _rescaling the image. The image resolution is whatever you enter ...
    For example, if you enter 360 dpi -- the native printing resolution of many Epson printers -- you get a print size of 9.733 x 6.489 inches
    o Let's say you want to print this image at 360 dpi in portrait on 13 x 19 inch paper with a one inch border on the sides. That would make the short dimension of the image 11 inches and the long would work out to 16.5.
    To do that you need to _resample_ the image to change the size. More pixels will be made. The resolution stays at 360 dpi. So check the 'resample image' box.
    After resampling to get the print size and resolution you want, the pixel dimension goes to 5960 x 3960 (from 3504 x 2336). Those new pixels came at a price, but that is a matter for another thread and a lot of personal bias.
    Hope that helped.
    P.S. The answer to your question, Bob, is yes. With resample off in PhotoShop, your original images should have gone to 11.68 x 7.787 inches @300 dpi.
    In looking at the rest of your original post, it seems that the export didn't work the way that you wanted. Do I read right that the images turned out to be 11.68 x 7.787 @ 72 dpi? Can't help with that as I don't do Lightroom.

  • I asked this about a week ago and didn't get any replies.. Please help.. My macbook will not stay on unless plugged in...

    My macbook will not stay on without being plugged in. I had my macbook for about 3 years and the battery had less than 200 cycles on it and the computer suddenly would not stay on unless plugged in (went from holding about 1.5 hr charge to not holding charge at all). I purchased a new battery and this battery has 118 cycles on it. It is doing the same thing. When I unplug it the computer shuts off immediately. It will not stay in sleep mode either. What should I do? I assumed that it was because I tend to leave the computer plugged in so that the cycles stay low, but after only 118 cycles? (and the new battery is less than 8 months old). Could my computer be failing to register the battery? Please help me - I don't want to have to spend another $80 on a battery. (Just so you know, I have removed the battery and made sure the connection is good but this did not help.)

    If your problems with the new battery are the same as the old battery, it would seem your Mac isn't charging the battery properly.
    Perhaps it's a Magsafe/charger issue.
    Read through the power section of this User tip here, try everyting, including the SMU Reset and see if that makes any difference.

  • How do you save main window size and placement upon boot-up?

    Is there any way for a dual-monitor user to convince InDesign to remember the size and shape of the main window when I boot up?  I use InDesign on my second monitor, which I have rotated to portrait mode.  The workspace I have saved remembers all of my menues and panels, but the main window always shows up on my main monitor.  InDesign 5 remembered....
    Also, how do you permanently turn off that damn "getting started" window?
    Thanks.

    I'm guessing your on a Mac with a recent version of Mac OS X. Am I correct?
    You'll have the best luck having InDesign remember your window size if you choose Window > Application Frame. Then resize the frame to the size you prefer. It should stick.
    People have found bugs with windows on a secondary monitor if they're using Mac OS X 10.10.2. If you're running 10.10.3 it should solve that problem.
    To get rid of the Getting Started window, scroll to the bottom of most tabs, and choose not show the window again by checking a checkbox.

  • How do you acquire multiple image buffers and save to disk later?

    Good morning everyone,
    I am working with the LabVIEW code posted below.   I am taking images through a CCD camera at a high frequency.  Therefore, I need this code to be able to keep up with the trigger.  I take anywhere from 30 to a few 100 images and acquire them through buffers.  The code I have now (which I got from someone else in my lab; I did not write it) saves the images in the for loop in which each is required.  This slows down the code considerably.  Timing is important to my application.  Does anyone know if there is a way to set each buffer aside after they are acquired and then save them to disk AFTER all the images are acquired.  I think this will allow the code to keep up with the trigger. 
    As a side question, I would like to have the code trigger my camera on both the rising and falling edge of the trigger pulse.  As you can see from the code, I tried to set this up, but the method I tried doesn't work; each time a new trigger is setup it wipes out the old one.  Is there a way to set up 2 triggers?
    Thank you very much,
    Matt

    Save_Image_Matt_Trig.vi ‏46 KB

    Left from the loop there's an "Array Subset" vi because I didn't use the first two pictures of the ring.
    So you can forget about it and wire the ring directly to the "For Loop".
    You can see the Ring as an array of images, so basically you don't need any VI to retrieve an image from the ring, just an "Index array" will do.
    Wire the output of the "Index array" to an image control.
    This is of course if you first fill the ring and then process it.
    If you want live images, then you can use the vi you're using to extract an image from the buffer but I understood that you want to acquire images as fast as possible and process them afterwards.
    Correct? Yes, then you don't need the "IMAQ Extract Buffer" vi.
    And yes, you can remove everything from the loop, just check if the number of frames is reached.
    When all frames are acquired, quit the loop and process the ring buffer.
    I checked your code again, and observed that you do nothing with the ring buffer
    You build it up in the first For loop and delete it at the end of the code but never used it in the loop
    I attach a larger view of the acquisition loop, so that you can have a better idea of the whole ring stuff.
    I have a shift register for the ring so that all states can access it.
    The state "Save all images" loops through the array, to save the images one by one.
    I'm sorry I can't post the complete vi, it's way too large and contains lots of sub vi's to analyse the images and handle the I/O toward the process line.

  • New Image Size and Resolution in CC

    Hi there.
    Ok, maybe i'm missing something, but how do i reduce the ppi's of a given image in the Photoshop CC? Changing it in the image size, in the Resolution field, it acomplish nothing. It logs an entry in the History panel, but nothing changes in the picture. Did Adobe changed how this works, or it's just a bug?
    Thank you.

    Try setting to real-world measurement, like inches or cm.
    Hi Charles, i think that change in cm/mm/in it's the only way to change the image ppi (in my case save/resample it to 108ppi). Can you confirm that this is correct?
    Anyway when i go to image size (new panel of CC) the w/h are:
    1) grey and always set in pixel with resample flagged.
    2) always set in inches with resample NON-flagged (also if my ruler unit is in Pixel).
    (and actually that is not new behavior. CS6 behaved same way when width and height were set to percent)
    In CS6 and CC i never seen w/h in percent  - where is my error?
    Many thanks!

  • Image size and resolution....just when I thought I understood!

    I couldn't find this question anywhere else, but I can't be the only one who's come across this:
    I have an image in a folder...finder/explorer tells me that it's 638px X 479px, and 234KB.
    I open it in Photoshop and go to Image Size. PS says it is indeed 638x479pixels, but that it's 5.4" x 4.06" at 300pp and the "pixel dimensions" add up to 895KB?
    (Then, when I place it in InDesign, at 100%, it measures around 2.1" x 1.6"? What's going on? If I input those dimensions into the Image Size dialogue box in PS, without resampling, it would have to be 750.25ppi. Obviously it's not.)
    How big is this file really? Which program do I trust...windows explorer or photoshop?

    The ppi resolution is simply a number stored with the file to indicate how large to display the image. The height and width in pixels are part of the image data itself. So the pixel dimensions are always the number to trust.
    You can open an image in Photoshop and in Image Size change the resolution (ppi) and if you don't check Resample Image the actual image data don't change at all, only the number stating the pixels per inch.
    The reason the Pixel Dimensions size in KB is different in Photoshop vs. Explorer is that the file is likely a Jpeg, which is compressed. When Photoshop calculates pixel dimensions, it does this based on an uncompressed file (each pixel=3 bytes for an 8-bit RGB image.) When Jpeg compression is used, a pixel can be much less than 3 bytes, and the actual number varies depending on the image quality and how detailed the image is.
    To see this, save your image as an uncompressed Tiff format and the size will very closely match the pixel dimensions. But if saved as a Jpeg, it will be smaller but still the same height and width and the same ppi.
    If you are using CS3, it automatically uses a form of lossless compression if saving in PSD format with "Maximize Compatibility" disabled. So in this case the file size will also be smaller than the pixel dimensions number, but if saved in Tiff, it will match that number instead.

  • How can you specify the height of an index page window?

    I want to control the height of an index page window when it

  • Scanning a 35mm slide film and trying to get it a certain image size and resolution

    Hi All,
    I am using the Nikon Super CoolScan8000 and Vuescan program to scan a slide film. I am scanning at this setting: scan resolution 4000 dpi. I have to make it a certain dimension that someone has been asking me for. They want the image at Width = 60cm (approx. 23 inches) and 300 dpi.
    When I scan at 4000 dpi, I'm not sure what size to make the printed width. I have experimented numerous times and I've had no luck with getting exactly what I want. It seems that when I make the width 60 cm (the height adjusts proportionately) and the dpi at 300, the quality is not that great, which it definitely needs to be because it will be printed at a large size.
    Someone please help ASAP!
    Thank you!
    PS I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 and I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

    You can only get 228 ppi out of the end product. That should be good enough.

  • IPhone app image size and resolution?

    The icon and image creation guidelines specify all of the custom icons and images that I need to create for my app in two sizes: one for the iPhone 3 screen (and earlier) at 163 pixels per inch; and one for the iPhone 4 screen at 326 pixels per inch. While this guideline specifies the image sizes in pixels, I am unable to find any reference to the required resolution in pixels per inch. Should I save the images at 163 and 326 pixels per inch respectively?

      As I said it makes no difference to viewing, all things being equal, only to downloading the resultant image if needed for printing.
    If you were concerned with print quality you would probably save on maximum image quality -12 in resizing - but up to 90% - save for web - would make hardly a noticeable difference, except for file size.
    You can reduce image quality to optimize file size using the slider in save for web and by looking at the before and after preview.
    If using jpeg, it’s also possible to select progressive, which loads from top to bottom, without the user waiting for the full image to load.
    There really is no point in using 1000 dpi which only blows the pixel dimensions way beyond even the best HD monitor, capable of displaying 1920 x 1080p
