Lusco Fusco Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Hi. I've been searching, but I can't find a way in any tutorial, although there must be one: in the export persona, how to give the slices a default aspect ratio (1x1, 4x5, whatever ...), and not having to move the sliders by hand, almost impossible to adjust the size with pixel precision. If anyone knows where that option is, I would appreciate the help. Quote

If using the Slice Tool, you can set the H/W size (aspect ratio) in the Transform panel Then maintain that aspect ratio by using the shift key when making the slice bigger or smaller by dragging the slice's handles on screen R C-R and Lusco Fusco 1 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

So for example, when over a node, the Shift key constrains the aspect ratio, the ⌘ (command) key resizes around the center of the slice, & the option key ignores snapping. All of these modifiers can be used in any combination, so there are lots of options available.

What am I missing I mean the points in the corners and in the center of the lines of the frame that you are creating, which you drag to change their size.

Also, to the right of the dimensions boxes, there is a small icon to lock the aspect ratio once defined. Thanks! Quote

The corner points are usually called handles or control handles. Sliders usually refer to items with a bar & a movable dot, like the ones in the Color panel when it is set to "Sliders," or the "Position" adjuster in the History panel.
