Before you start
- Log in to your account at Ribbet.com and open Studio Editor.
- Start a new project or open a saved one. You can work on up to 100 photos and canvases in one session.
- Canvases export at full resolution, so the size you set is the size you get.
Steps
1. Add blank canvases
If your project doesn't have canvases yet, click the + icon at the top of the project panel.
In the Add to Project window, click Add a canvas. A new canvas appears in the list, 4000 × 4000 px by default. Type how many canvases you want in the box at the end of its row, then click Add to project. You can set the size here or change it later.
2. Select the canvases
Canvas settings apply only to selected canvases. To select every canvas, click the select all (hand) icon at the top of the project panel. To pick only some, hold Cmd (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows) and click each one.
3. Open Canvas Settings
In the left menu, click Tools, then click Canvas Settings. The panel shows the width and height, the corner radius and Templates.
4. Change the width and height
Width and height are linked by default, so changing one changes the other and the shape stays the same. To set them separately, click the link icon between them to unlink, then type a new value, or click the arrow next to the field to pick a common size such as 6000 px.
5. Use a template (optional)
Click Templates to choose a ready-made size. The list includes print sizes such as A3, A4 and Letter, square photo sizes, and social media sizes for Instagram and Facebook. Use the search box to find one quickly, then click it to apply it to every selected canvas.
6. Round the corners (optional)
The field below the width sets the corner radius. Click the slider icon at the left of the field and drag the slider, or type a value. 0 gives square corners.
7. Keep the shape while changing the size
To resize without changing the shape, click the link icon again to link width and height, then change one of them. The other updates automatically, so the proportions stay intact. In this example, the width goes from 3508 to 4000 px and the height follows on its own, from 4960 to 5655 px.
8. Finish, then export or save
Your canvases are ready for text, graphics or photos.
To download them, click Export in the top bar, choose the canvases, format and quality, and click Export Selected. To keep working later, click Save instead.
Tips
- Pick a template first, then lock the ratio and adjust the width. You keep the template's shape at exactly the size you need.
- Check whether width and height are linked before typing a new value. Linked keeps the shape; unlinked lets you stretch it.
- Corner radius applies to every selected canvas, so a whole set gets matching corners.
- Changed your mind? Use the Undo and Redo buttons (the arrow icons at the top right).
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Only some canvases changed size | Only selected canvases change. Click the select-all (hand) icon, then apply the setting again. |
| Changing the width also changed the height | Width and height are linked. Click the link icon to unlink them first. |
| The canvas shape changed when I only wanted it bigger | Width and height were unlinked. Undo, click the link icon to link them, then change one value. |
| I can't find the size I need in Templates | Type part of the name in the search box, or unlink the dimensions and enter the exact width and height. |
