Edit slices with tools

Use the Pointer, Subselection, and Transform tools to reshape or resize a slice.

Note: Only polygon slices can be skewed or distorted.

Because the size of adjacent slice objects is not automatically adjusted, resizing and reshaping slices can create overlapping slices. When slices overlap, the topmost slice takes precedence if interactivity is involved. To avoid overlapping slices, use slice guides to edit slices.

To edit the shaped of a selected slice, do one of the following:

Select the Pointer or Subselection tool and drag the slice’s corner points to modify its shape.
Use a transformation tool to perform the transformation. Transforming a rectangular slice can change its shape, position, or dimensions, but the slice itself remains rectangular.
Use the Property inspector to change a slice object’s position and size numerically.
