I have looked everywhere inside Photoirector4 for the "resize" or "image size" tool and I cannot find a thing. I have looked through the downloadable PhD4 Users manual.

In my Photoshop, there is a clear and unambiguous toggle labeled "image size".

Surely, PhotoDirector4 has one as well. But where is it?

Thanks for any help.

Hello Tom,

If it's any consolation to you, I spent a while looking for the resize button when I first started using PhD. It's not there.

When you export an image, there's a series of options in the dialogue box that pops up. One of them is to keep the original size or resize the photo. That's how you do it.

Of course, your original full sized photo you imported remains unchanged. A new image is exported.

Well that's a different idea, isn't it!

Thanks so much Pix for the help! ~Tom~

Do you mean crop.
If yes like this:

1. Click adjustment (on top, next to library)
2. Click Manual (on left)
3. Regional and adjustment tool (not a button),
4. Then click Crop
5. Crop your picture and click DONE.

Hope it help

Crop is not the same as resize. With crop, you lose part f the image. With resize, you retain all of the image. .

We are now in PhD 12 and there is still no simple resize option available.
Someone truly needs to contact R&D and tell them to add some of these simple and frequently used tools.
