Picture Scaling Help
« on: June 11, 2020, 02:52:07 PM »
I am having a problem getting a JPG file to scale to fit my pixel tree. I changed my tree this year from a 50 pixel to a 90 bullet pixel 2" spacing & can not get my Santa picture to fit, I have tried everything I know to do. Below are my setting & how it displays on the tree & also the JPG I am using. Thanks for the help.

Set to no scale and you set the scale factor on the Start Scale tab. Should be able to get something that works for you. You can tweak the Y & X if needed as well. (ie do it manually)

Not sure without trying it but I do notice the image you linked "Santa.PNG" does not match the name in your effect settings "Santa 2.png"

Gil
 That was my mistake when I toke the screenshots. I had been trying several different pictures & nothing was working. The scaling that allknowing2012 posted seems to be working now.
 Thanks

Still sounds like Scale To Fit is broken but I'm ok with relying on you guys passing on this work around....lol.

I had the same thought Gil but being rather new I did not want to make that statement.

I doubt scale to fit is broken. I would need to see a sample sequence.
