    Changing the canvas size

    I know how to change the canvas size, obviously. What I mean is that when I open Paint 3D the canvas size is a weird one, I can change it, but when I open the app again it's the same weird resolution, and it's getting pretty annoying to change it every
    time. It's not a huge problem, but I'd like to know how to get 1920×1080 / 2048×2048 when I open the app.

    Hi Lynne,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to try steps provided below and check if it helps.

    Change the canvas size

    The canvas size is the full editable area of an image. The Canvas Size command lets you increase or decrease an image’s canvas size. Increasing the canvas size adds space around an existing image. Decreasing an image’s canvas
    size crops into the image. If you increase the canvas size of an image with a transparent background, the added canvas is transparent. If the image doesn’t have a transparent background, there are several options for determining the color of the added canvas.

    1. Choose Image > Canvas Size.

    2. Do one of the following:

    • Enter the dimensions for the canvas in the Width and Height boxes. Choose the units of measurement you want from the pop‑up menus next to the Width and Height boxes.
    • Select Relative, and enter the amount you want to add or subtract from the image’s current canvas size. Enter a positive number to add to the canvas, and enter
      a negative number to subtract from the canvas.
    3. For Anchor, click a square to indicate where to position the existing image on the new canvas.

    4. Choose an option from the Canvas Extension Color menu:

    • Foreground to fill the new canvas with the current foreground color
    • Background to fill the new canvas with the current background color
    • White, Black, or Gray to fill the new canvas with that color
    • Other to select a new canvas color using the Color Picker
    Note:

    You can also click the white square to the right of the Canvas Extension Color menu to open the Color Picker.

    The Canvas Extension Color menu isn’t available if an image doesn’t contain a background layer.

    5. Click OK.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    Hi Diego,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We will assist you in resolving the issue.



    You can change the canvas size as it has full editing area of an image. The canvas size command will let you increase and decrease an image’s canvas size. Increasing the canvas size adds space around the existing image and decreasing will crop the
    image.



    Try the steps below and check if the issue is resolved:

    • Choose the image and click on Canvas size
    • Enter the dimensions for the canvas in Width and height boxes. You can also choose the units of measurement from the drop down bar located adjacent to height and width options.


    Refer to the Fresh Paint FAQ from the link below and check if it helps.
