How to scale down image size (PS2019)

There are many friends who don’t know how to scale proportionally when using PS to operate pictures. Every time, the length and width of the picture are inconsistently scaled, causing the picture to be deformed and unable to achieve the effect you want. For this reason, the editor will give you I have brought you the following tutorial, let’s take a look!

1. First, we open ps2019, then select [File]-[Open] in the menu bar above to open the image through the path. We can also open PS first and drag the image directly into the blank area in the middle of PS.


#2. What we need to pay attention to is the current status of the picture we open. We select [Layer] in the [Layer | Channel | Path] panel in the lower right corner of PS, and we can see the status of the image we just imported. Some pictures are imported as backgrounds, and we can see that there is a lock on the layer. We double-click the layer and click OK to convert the image's status from background to layer. (The picture cannot be moved or zoomed in the background state)


#3. We use the shortcut key Ctrl T to transform the layer. After pressing the shortcut key, we can see that the picture is framed by eight square points with an anchor point in the middle. We can zoom in and out by moving the mouse to the four corners of the image. You can hold down the Shift key when zooming to ensure equal scaling. The shortcut key Ctrl T key is effective for layer transformation in all versions of PS.

4. What we just talked about is a picture, that is, a layer, scaled in equal proportions. What if there are multiple pictures and multiple layers scaled equally at the same time. We are still in the [Layer | Channel | Path] panel in the lower right corner, select [Layer], hold down the Ctrl key, and click with the mouse to select multiple layers.

5. When multiple layers are selected at the same time, we can operate on multiple selected layers at the same time. But sometimes we click incorrectly and some layers are deselected. In order to make it more convenient and faster, we can use some tools.

6. Then right-click the mouse and there are two methods in the pop-up menu. The first method is to link layers, which is to establish links between several layers. We then use the Ctrl T key to select any one of the layers, and all linked layers can be scaled equally at the same time. (In the picture below, we can see that there is a chain-like sign on the linked layer)

7. The second method in the menu is to merge layers. To merge layers, you need to Layers are merged together, and linked layers can be unlinked. However, after merging layers, the merged layers cannot be split again, which means that this operation is irreversible. (In the picture below, several layers are merged into one layer) After merging the layers, then scale.
