It also serves as a means to prevent unauthorized copying and distribution of copyrighted material, ensuring that creators have the ability to profit from their creations and maintain control over their intellectual property.

    • Raster

    • Pixelated

    • GIMP

    In our MAC lab, how do you resize (Transform) an image WITHOUT skewing/stretching it? 

    • Hold SHIFT while clicking and dragging the image from any side

    • Hold CONTROL while clicking and dragging the image from the corner

    • Hold COMMAND while clicking and dragging the image from the corner

    • Hold SHIFT while clicking and dragging the image from the corner

    Correct Answer
    A. Hold SHIFT while clicking and dragging the image from the corner
    Explanation
    When resizing an image in the MAC lab without skewing or stretching it, the correct method is to hold SHIFT while clicking and dragging the image from the corner. This ensures that the aspect ratio of the image remains intact and the image is resized proportionally. Holding SHIFT while dragging from any side would not maintain the original proportions of the image. Holding CONTROL or COMMAND while dragging from the corner does not have the same effect as holding SHIFT.
