Resize

Node icon
Transform

Scales an image to exact pixel dimensions or by percentage, with aspect ratio control.

Resize changes the image dimensions either to exact pixel values or by a percentage of the original size. The default mode is Percentage (100% × 100%), so new Resize nodes pass through input dimensions unchanged until you adjust them. Three fit modes handle aspect ratio: Stretch (ignore aspect), Fit (pad to fill), and Fill (crop to fill).

Use Resize for standardizing asset sizes in your pipeline or for creating multiple size variants from a single source.

Parameters

Section titled “Parameters”

Transform

ModeChoice
Default: Percentage

Exact Size (pixels) or Percentage (relative)

  • Exact SizeResize to specific pixel dimensions (width x height).
  • PercentageScale by a percentage of the original size.
WidthInteger
Default: 1024 Range: 1–8192

Target output width in pixels

HeightInteger
Default: 1024 Range: 1–8192

Target output height in pixels

Fit ModeChoice
Default: Stretch

Aspect ratio handling

  • StretchIgnore aspect ratio — force to exact dimensions. May distort.
  • FitScale to fit inside the target, preserving aspect ratio. May leave empty space.
  • FillScale to fill the target, preserving aspect ratio. May crop edges.
Scale XNumber
Default: 100.0 Range: 1.0–400.0

Horizontal scale as % of input width

Scale YNumber
Default: 100.0 Range: 1.0–400.0

Vertical scale as % of input height

Lock AspectToggle
Default: true

Y scale tracks X to preserve aspect ratio

FilterChoice
Default: Bilinear

Resampling

  • NearestPixel-perfect — ideal for pixel art scaling.
  • BilinearSmooth interpolation — good for general use.
  • LanczosSharpest quality — best for downscaling photographs.
Notes

Exact mode shows Width/Height/Fit Mode. Percentage mode shows Scale X/Scale Y/Lock Aspect.

Usage Tips

Section titled “Usage Tips”
  • Use Lanczos filtering for the best quality when downscaling photographs.
  • Use Nearest filtering when resizing pixel art to keep crisp edges without blurring.
  • Lock Aspect in percentage mode to scale uniformly.
  • Percentage sliders show two decimal places for pixel-level precision.
