Question

Where can I see the video resolution height and width after applying scale?

I resized my video to a certain size like 68.2% with Uniform Scale option enabled. Where can I find the new width and height resolution? Properties still show the original width and height (i.e. 100% scale). I used a website that calculates the scale but the resolution given is not correct.

 

Please advise. Thanks.

Why do you want to know the resolution of the scaled down clip.

It will still be the same as if it were not scaled down.

if you export that frame it will take on the size of the frame size of the timeline.

Hey Ann, actually it would be a useful feature if we can set the scale as percentage or as desired dimension, just like how we set speed/duration by setting speed OR duration.

Let's say that I want to arrange 3 images on the screen in a way that they all have the same width, if the images are of different resolutions, it's hard to make all of them of the same width.

Honestly I needed that feature in Ae more than Pr, but it's very useful if they add it in both.

Make 3 identical shapes each in there own folder  in the EGP

add images to these folders and mask with shape.

All images can be scaled independently.

AFAIK there is no direct way to know the exact dimensions. It would be a good idea if Pr team puts the new dimensions between brackets somewhere, maybe besides scale property of Motion, or maybe besides the clip name in the timeline, just like when you change the speed of a clip it's displayed between brackets.
If you want to calculate numerically the dimensions, do the following:

Original width x 100 / scale = current width, Original height x 100 / scale = current height.

Edit: it's:

Original width x scale / 100 = current width, Original height x scale / 100 = current height.

I see. Thanks.

 

Btw, am I getting your formula right? It's 1280px width, so 1280 x 100 / 68.2 or 0.682 scale, but I'm getting a width higher than 1280. Sorry, just a newbie on this.

Hmmm, sorry it's: original width x scale / 100. I will edit my last post.
