Automatic scaling when pasting to new document


Recommended Posts

I'm having an issue when copy/pasting from one canvas to another. I have a 2400 DPI scan of a photo that's roughly 2.5 x 2.5 in. or 6000 x 6000px and I'm trying to copy it to a 5 x7 in. 300 DPI canvas. The problem I'm running into is when I paste it to that 5 x7 in. 300 DPI canvas it automatically resizes it to 2.5 x 2.5 in. on that canvas rather than staying the original size of the scan. I want to be able to resize it myself after pasting.

I don't recall this happening in prior versions, is there a setting to stop this from happening? I can't find anything in the preferences.

Also, I found that Paste Special > as a PNG doesn't resize it, but this isn't helpful if I'm trying to copy/paste multiple layers.

Hi Yonder,

Welcome to the forums :)

Please could you provide a video demonstrating this problem and if possible also provide the image file in question?

Thanks
