There is a way of resizing the image on the canvas useing the options bar.

You put in the measurement and I think you use Rectangle Mrque Tool or the Scale tool. I'm not too sure which box you put in the measurements in.

Whenyouscale the image it goes to the measurements and will not go any further.

Try the crop tool, it can be extended beyond the image dimensions to increase canvas size.

There is a way of scaling an image to a size. I just can not for the life of me remember how to do it. I think you use the rectangle marqee tool.

Say for example you want to resize and image exactly to a specific measurement you input the mesurement somewhere in the option menu.

Then left click and drag and the dotted line (moving ants) rectangle will go exactly to these dimensions. I've done something like this before but I just do not recall how I did it or for that matter what tool.

The crop tool will crop to the 'inputed measurement but I want this the other way around to size up. To scale up to a measurement
