Add Image > Expand/Resize Canvas to Fit All Content

They’re both less than 3MB so I don’t know why that happened.
What was the error message?
For anybody who’s keeping up with this, here are the .mp4 videos:

Crop:

Fit:
I don’t know why but I can’t upload fit.mp4. No error message, nothing happens :frowning:

‘Fit’ is an illustration of the first case that was made and a solution has been proposed by @yetanotherpainter, above.

There is also a Feature Request topic that seems to cover this:
Add Image > Expand/Resize Canvas to Fit All Content

The ‘Crop’ .mp4 seems to cover the second case where I think it’s related to GIMP’s ability to have layers of different sizes.
I’ve never used that facility in GIMP so I can’t understand the difference between GIMP and krita for that one.
Maybe someone else can figure it out.

Yes both this and the feature request you linked are same. I think we can merge them.

@krite Trim to image size doesn’t work because it trims everything to the dimension of the canvas it doesn’t trim or crop to combined layers. There is already a feature request for this. PLease vote for it. Also please search the forum for similar feature request.

Off topic -

Out of curiosity can you message me links to your posts in gimp forum I would like to follow these requests too.

I’d like to add that selecting opaque pixels has very low performance on large images. A built-in feature could in theory work much faster.
