Posted on 6:36 PM by Daniy
Using measurement on working in Photoshop depends on what media you are projecting. Between the print and screen, there are basic units which comply with each media. The general measurement for screen media is pixels since user tend to count the size easier, rather than putting a ruler on the monitor and start figuring how much does it length which is usually done with papers.And how do you toggle between those measurements in Photoshop? It’s a really quick step, buddy. Do you notice the ruler in your canvas, yet? If you haven’t, the try to hit Ctrl+R [Mac: Command+R] so you can instantly bring it up to your screen. Then give a right click [Mac: Control +R] on it until you see the pop-up menu, so you can toggle between them easily.
