Move, resize, and snap user slices

You can move and resize user slices in Photoshop, but not in the Save For Web & Devices dialog box.

Move or resize a user slice

  1. Select one or more user slices.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • To move a slice, move the pointer inside the slice selection border, and drag the slice to a new position. Press Shift to restrict movement to a vertical, horizontal, or 45° diagonal line.

    • To resize a slice, grab a side or a corner handle of the slice, and drag. If you select and resize adjacent slices, common edges shared by the slices are resized together.

Resize or move a user slice using numeric coordinates

  1. Select one or more user slices.
  2. Click the Options button in the options bar. You can also double-click a slice to show the options.
  3. In the Dimensions area of the Slice Options dialog box, change one or more of the following options:
    X
    Specifies the distance in pixels between the left edge of the slice and the origin of the ruler in the document window.

    Y
    Specifies the distance in pixels between the top edge of the slice and the origin of the ruler in the document window.
    Note: The default origin of the ruler is the upper left corner of the image.

    W
    Specifies the width of the slice.

    H
    Specifies the height of the slice.

Snap slices to a guide, user slice, or other object

  1. Select the options you want from the View > Snap To submenu.
  2. Choose View > Snap. A check mark indicates that the option is turned on.
  3. Move your selected slices as desired. The slices snap to any of your chosen objects within 4 pixels.
