Please help me to remove scratch disk option in photoshop crop tool

[moinahm3]

Hello, Photoshop Community

I'm adding a photo to the large artboard & use the crop tool to set the artboard to match the photo & the photoshop sends a pop up says Scratch disk full. 

I will try to add more disk to the Scratch disk option but photoshop is too lagging to crop the images. help me to remove this pop-up.

 the problem is that photoshop can't see free disk

cmd (ctrl)+Alt keys after starting the launch of photoshop to get the Scratch Disk Preferences, you

can point to another smaller partition or drive if you have one.

Hello, usually, you get this when you use the wrong units for the crop tool: did you select to convert the image to 1920x1080 INCHES for instance? that would make a huge file, therefore requiring way more scratch disk space.

Thanks for Replying

I'm opening this dimension (2000 x 1333) image into photoshop and creating a new document dimension is (780*650) inches and move this (2000 x 1333) image to a new document (780*650). Then I want to cut extra background in the image and the scratch disk pop-up shows up.

Please tell me how to remove this pop-up.

Respectfully yours,

Moin Uddin

You need pixels instead of inches, I think.

650 inches is 16, 51 meters... pretty sure you don't need such a large document...
