psp7.4 help pleeeaaase

[chesters1]

i have been scanning a larger than a4 picture but i cannot (or havent found ) a way in psp to "stitch" the now seperate pics back together ,if i copy and paste image 2 and put it where it should be most of it disapears "behind" the cross hatched bit pic 1 sits in :confused: is there a way of removing the cross hatched bit so i can move both pics and merge the layers so 1 pic remains :confused: if i "move pic 1 across its (white)square and drop the pic2 in its final place, merge and save the pic all i get is the bits i see on screen not the complete pic :confused: its probably very easy but i will kill soon :mad:

Hi Chesters

 

Not sure about PSP, but to achieve the same thing in Photoshop I would be making changes to the CANVAS SIZE, then selecting the part of the image I want to paste into the new area and pasting it in. In general when you scan a picture in you create a space which is of a fixed size (like a sheet of paper) If you want to make a bigger picture you need to add more "paper".

 

There should be similar commands in PSP I would think.

 

Hope the above makes sense, I've just left the bar in the hotel I'm staying in this weekend while my daughter is being well looked after in the local hospital with a broken arm. Sense may not be arriving on screen.
