Trim and Reveal Canvas commands

The Trim Canvas command allows cropping an image by trimming surrounding transparent pixels, or background pixels of the solid color you specify.

1. Choose Image > Trim Canvas. 2. Select the Trim option in the Trim dialog: * Transparent Pixels - Trims away transparency at the edges of the image. * Top Left Pixel Color - Removes areas from the image of the same color as the upper left pixel. * Bottom Right Pixel Color - Removes areas from the image of the same color as the lower right pixel. 3. Select one or more areas of the image to trim away: Top, Bottom, Right, Left. 4. When you finish, click OK to accept changes, Cancel to quit without resizing the canvas, or the Reset button to reset changes.
