Resizing layers using pixels instead of percentages in Photoshop

With the help of Photoshop CS5 for PC.

When I select a layer and look at the info panel, I see that the width and height of the layer is shown apparently in percentages by default.  More precisely 100% height and 100% width.

I would have preferred that the info panel shows the height and width in Pixels rather than percentages.

After considering the height and width in Pixels I mean, change the height enter the height in pixels.

How can I do?

I don't want to use a "leader" to do this, I just want to be able to enter the pixels (width and height) I want the resized b layer.  For example, when you select a rectangle which is currently 100 pixels high and 50 pixels wide, I want to be able to simply change of 50 pixels wide by entering (in a field) 25 to make 25 pixels wide.

In Fireworks, I resize in pixels all the time.  But could not find a method similar to Photoshop.

Thank you

Info palette: just click on the drop down next to the display and change the units for playback.

Transformation: just specify the units when you enter the number, '25 px' or '25 pixels.

  • Resizing layers using pixels rather than percentages by AUTO ACTION

    Hi guys,.


    I have just a problem in the resizing layers; I use pixel in the bar. But when I do in action auto, it becomes percentages which can lead to the wrong action towards other layer I want to apply for. So, how can I use pixels instead of percentages when I do the Auto action?

  • How can I make firefox use http instead of https?

    In internet business, it is problematic to use https.
    However firefox by default always to https connections (for example during a google image search in the toolbar search, or when you type an address bar starting with "www"); so always raise an alert page "this connection is untrusted" and make me go the address bar manually and change the 'https' in the 'http'.
    In Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, it is very easy to install the browser to use http instead of https protocol. However, I can't find this option in firefox. Any ideas?

    There are two different parameters involved:

    Address bar Autofill

    If you used HTTPS to a site before, the AutoFill feature to Firefox address bar will prefer the HTTPS address. If you don't mind by selecting from the drop-down instead, or just type the address in full, you can disable AutoFill the address bar. Here's how:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste the AutoFill and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click browser.urlbar.autoFill from true to false.

    Search from the address bar

    About the address bar search, you can change the URL used by the 'key word' service. Please see this thread for links: unable to connect to the proxy because of the automatic https.

    That solve it?

  • Using DVI instead of VGA on the Port Replicator - Tecra A9

    I have a port replicator toshiba that I use with my laptop Tecra A9, currently I have a vga cable to run the external monitor, but I prefer to use DVI instead, but I can't make it work.

    Is there a setting somewhere that I have to activate? or should it work?

    Hello

    As much as I know there nothing that you must set for the use of the DVI port. The question is how you use it. Using a DVI - VGA adapter?

  • Why the continuous measurement and Logging in LabVIEW 2012 Project uses strings instead of Enums and orders from the queue?

    Hello!

    I noticed that the continuous measurement and a project in LabVIEW 2012 Logging using chains instead of enums and orders from the queue. I wonder if there is a good reason for it?

    Kind regards

    Anguel

    First, string vs enum debate is probably the version of LabVIEW vim vs emacs. There are good arguments on both sides, and I doubt that there is always a "winner".

    A brief summary of our reasoning for the current state of the project examples:

    1. We used enums for the state machine because it is self-contained. A state machine will never tell himself to enter a State, he does not know. Knowing (as the programmer) all possible States with the help of an enum allows you to enlist the compiler in order to help us avoid mistakes to change the time (because you can't quite out an enum and LabVIEW can be said if you are not covering all cases to a structure of the case, etc..).

      Enums provide greater protection and rigidity by ensuring all withdrew at the time of publishing. This is often the 'default' recommendation that we do.

    2. We used strings for messages in queue manager because the producer of message and the message handler could be independent processes that are reused or traded. Channels avoid the need for the compiler to be able to connect the orders and push this responsibility to the programmer. This allows you to develop some sub-components independently as long as you agree to a series of channel commands that you can manage - you need not to share a file 'messages.ctl' or 'states.ctl '. It is conceivable a loop of message management a message it does not, how you can decide to either silently ignore it or will trigger an error (as we do in the model). The strings make it also easier if you want to swap the queues of LabVIEW outside by a TCP implementation for network vacilitate or intra-Processuse communication where the other end may or may not be written in LabVIEW.

      Channels to provide more flexibility (that is, you can add new commands to an existing via plugins system, you can pass parameters as part of the string, etc.) at the expense of pushing her potential errors at run time and to put more responsibility on the programmer.

    3. The actor's gifts frame a 3rd option - using classes such as messages. For me, it combines many of the advantages of these two enumerations (strictly typed, change errors) and strings (flexible and scalable), but with the disadvantage of being somewhat less transparent (you understand OO, be comfortable to navigate through a multitude of screws, legacy of understanding, etc.).

    I don't know there are other reasons, others to the breast OR had or seen as we validated models and examples of projects in-house, but here are my reasons. We know that we can not design for each situation there - our goal is to get useful models against new users to make them aware of what well thought LabVIEW programs are similar to experienced users know their applications better and I hope they do not hesitate to change what we provide or create their own designs, when they feel it's necessary. (On a side note, please share what you come up with - a community of experts sharing models would be really useful to us all LabVIEW users).

    Best regards

  • How can I send five simple characters (P, H, O, T, O) using ComWrt, instead of sending a single string?

    The manual of instrument mentioned that "for switch mode remote"P","H""O""T","O"are sent as single characters and not as a single string". How can I send simple characters using the Serial Port, rather than send a single string?

    I have no CVI installed on this pc, and in the past, I used VISA instead of the ComWrt. If you know how to write a string, then I don't see where is your problem. You write only 5 channels instead of one--each with a single character.

    You can post to the ICB card if you have problems with C.

  • Can I remove internet explore and use chrome instead?

    Can I remove internet explore and use chrome instead? That is, crashes, to stop, resarts and slows my computor. I installed Google Chrome and have had no more problems. It opens and closes when I want it and going to the Web pages as I type in without hesitation. I like windows 7, I only have a problem with Internet Explore. It also caused changes in my modem. I need to uninstall the software and reinstall to get it working again. IO would open that is and get a message that says "no internet access - check your settings, I thought it was a virus at some point. As soon as I started using Chrome, everything worked again. That is also caused problems with my printer and home network. I don't mind that is being stored in a file, I don't want to work and make changes to my computer I'm not an it expert by any means. I restored my pc to an earlier time and new conditions of factory several times in the past year (I bought the HP pc new in December 2010).

    It is not really a way to remove Internet Explorer.  I have not heard of the type of problems, you had with IE, but if you prefer Chrome and who works for you, all you need to do is to make Chrome the default browser.  I use Firefox and make it my default browser.  Once you make Chrome default you just leave Internet Explorer installed but it won't get used.  Following comes the site help Chrome and tells how to do it by default: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95417
