walt.farrell Posted August 12, 2019 Posted August 12, 2019 This happens with either the retail or beta versions of Photo. It seems to occur only with a rectangular (non-square) image. In my experiments so far it has always worked with square images, but I suppose (given my recipe) that it might be related to the shape of the selection not the shape of the image. Open a rectangular image. Unlock the background layer. Switch to the Move Tool. Ctrl+A to select all. Select > Grow/Shrink... Specify -50px or -100px as the amount to grow/shrink, and press Apply. The bounding box is now offset, rather than matching the outline of the layer. With a square image, the bounding box matches the outline of the layer after step 7. Some examples of the offset bounding box: Here's one with a square image, where the bounding box is correct: Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Ray S. Posted August 13, 2019 Posted August 13, 2019 I can confirm this. But what's more strange is, if you apply more than -150 px it works as expected. walt.farrell 1 Quote
