hi in this video I'm going to show you
0:02
on how you can crop a shape in Cana I
0:05
have these two elements one is a normal
0:08
image and the other is a shape so on a
0:11
normal picture you can basically crop it
0:14
to any shape that you like for example I
0:16
want to just show half of the star so
0:19
I'm going to click here and then drag it
0:20
to the left and it will essentially crop
0:24
how star and this uh this is the result
0:27
that I got and same unfortunately can be
0:30
said for a shape if you do the same
0:32
thing it's going to just make the shape
0:34
look thinner but it's not cropping the
0:36
whole image so how do you deal with that
0:39
well there are two methods uh the first
0:41
method is basically just adding another
0:44
shape on top of it that has the same
0:46
background as uh the the document so
0:49
let's say I'm going to be inserting a
0:52
square shape and I'm going to change the
0:54
white and after that I'm going to put
1:00
next to uh this star shape and the
1:03
result would be something like this so
1:05
it is very similar to uh cropping a
1:08
picture except we are actually just
1:10
adding another element to obscure this
1:13
element this shape element but of course
1:16
that's not always the case depending on
1:18
what you are trying to do so I do
1:20
recommend using another method okay I'm
1:22
going to add a ner a new page and I'm
1:25
going to insert this star
1:27
again and I'm going to
1:30
download this page click download and
1:33
then make sure to F to select the file
1:35
type ipng enable transparent background
1:38
and I'm going to be selecting page
1:39
number two click done and click
1:43
download okay we just need to wait and
1:46
okay now I'm going to remove this star
1:50
shape and I'm going to upload the new
1:53
image so basically we're just converting
1:55
a shape into an image and therefore we
1:58
are able to crop this image to a uh
2:02
different dimension or different aspect
2:04
ratio I could uh crop it like that I
2:06
could do the same for uh the top area
2:10
and this is the result that we got so if
2:12
you want to get some customizable sorry
2:14
customization then you definitely want
2:16
to use this method so anyway that's how
2:18
you can crop a shape in canab I hope you
2:21
find this video to be helpful and I'll
2:23
see you in the next video
