Proportion feature for Image / Canvas Size

Hi,

since I am sometimes confronted with the issue of adjusting image proportions, I had an idea for a small add-on in the unit pull-down-menu in image size / canvas size:

Proportion

I am using this pretty frequently "by hand", but it would be neat if Photoshop calculated (on the basis of the given image proportions) the relative size of the image height / length with regard to a reference proportion. For instance let's say: I take 16 as a length reference (with the goal to resize for a 16:9 format) and PS calculates the according fraction of the height...

Best regards, Andreas

Are you aware you can already type math direct into the input boxes?

So in your example just type whatever the value is in length, as an example say 200 followed by*9/16 into the height box, so you would enter 200*9/16

The ability to type in math to various entry boxes was introduced a few versions ago and can be quite useful. I just checked that it also works with Canvas Size, which it does.
