Re: [Gimp-user] New user question- fitting canvas to layers

[Richard]

A small statusbar notification to this effect could be convenient to have ... 
it's always a little confusing when a specific operation performs apparently 
nothing and then you have to figure out why.

If you have done this after "Layer>Layer to image size" then the layer
has been cropped and "Image>Fit canvas to layers" won't to anything
since the layer is already the same size as the canvas.

Re: [Gimp-user] New user question- fitting canvas to layers

[Pat David]

If the layer size is larger than the canvas (image) size, you'll need to
increase the canvas size to fit your layers (hint: check the image menu -
https://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-image-resize-to-layers.html).

It might help to be specific about what you've already tried.
