Driving me nuts. I have a bunch of images, different sizes, some portrait some landscape.
I just want all of them to be 2 inches tall, proportionally, with their frames snapped to their contents.
But I can’t find a non-tedious way to do this.
If I type “2 in” in the scaling box for one images, then select the others, and do “transform again individually”…
it doesn’t respect the “2 in” that I typed, it resizes them as a percentage.
So for example if the initial image was 4″ tall, and I resized it by typing “2 in” in the scaling box, that’s 50% height right?
So when I use “transform again individually” it annoyingly doesn’t make them 2 inches tall. It makes them 50% of their original height.
If I use the other transform coordinates, I can resize all the frames to 2″ tall. And then I can choose “fit content proportionally”. Then I can do ctrl+alt+C to snap the frame to the correct width. But that doesn’t quite work either because it doesn’t handle the portrait mode images the way I want. It expands the frame beyond 2″ height, and maintains the width.
What’s the smart way to go about this? I’d really hate to separate all portrait and landscape images and then apply transforms because unfortunately many of the images are almost-square, and it’s not easy to tell if they’re slightly tall or slightly wide.
