marcimedic Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I posted earlier about problems with templates, thought it was isolated to templates. I was wrong.... I open a blank file to create a LO, size it 12x12 with 300dpi. I open any coordinating 12x12 papers or embelishments I might want to use and put them into my photo bin. When I click on any of them and drag them to my LO they reduce in size. If I open directly from my LO using file: open they will be the correct size. Problem with that is I want to see all my elements in the photo bin before I decide which I want to add. Hope that makes sense, any suggestions???

chickypow Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 That is really weird....I wish I had an answer for you! Hopefully some does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyChron Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Are you using a Shift+ drag to put them onto your new LO? They should stay the same size if you do it that way... I'm sorry I'm not more knowledgebale about such things. HTH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest siraacsa Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Can I ask are the papers/embellishments you are using also 300dpi. I know that there is a site that sells their product as 200dpi and as such does what you are describing above. If this is not the case, then I am sorry but I don't know what the problem could be. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcimedic Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 I use shift + drag or just click and drag, either way they are still shrunk. I checked the dpi, its 299.99 changed it to 300 still didn't work. HELP, IM GOING CRAZY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickypow Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Can you just resize them for now? I wish I was there and could look at what your doing....don't these problems drive you crazy! Grrr! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcimedic Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 On everything I add to my LO I have to grab a corner and drag to the size I want, its a pain! Especially when I want uniformity in sizes, like 3 squares the same size. I know I can duplicate the layer but I was using a template and every element of it had to be resized therefore making it a more difficult than it needed to be! And every picture I have cropped to the perfect size reduces needing resizing. thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
