Within the side palette, SampleBoard’s canvas settings enable you to change the size (dimensions) of your canvas by allowing you to adjust the width and/or height to suit your moodboard.
You can adjust the canvas size at any time during your creation. So for instance, if you started with a landscape orientation, but then decide portrait or square would be a better choice, you can easily change the canvas width and height by changing the pixels.
How to instantly resize a canvas
Click the Canvas Settings icon on the right-hand side toolbar
Select 'fixed' layout
Enter the width and height in pixels
Your canvas will instantly change size
You may need to zoom out if you're new size is much larger that your previous size using the zoom toggles on the bottom toolbar
