To resize one or more slices:

1.
Position the Pointer or Subselection tool over a slice guide.
The pointer changes to the guide movement pointer.
2.
Drag the slice guide to the desired location.
The slices are resized, and all adjacent slices are automatically resized as well.

To reposition a slice guide to the far edge of the canvas,

Use the Pointer or Subselection tool to drag the slice guide beyond the edge of the canvas.

To move adjacent slice guides:

1.
Shift-drag a slice guide across adjacent slices guides.
2.
Release the slice guide in the desired location.
All slice guides that you dragged across are moved to this location.
You can cancel this operation by releasing the Shift key before you release the
mouse button. All slice guides that were picked up snap back to their original
positions.

Using tools to edit slice objects

You can use the Pointer, Subselection, and Transform tools to reshape or resize a slice. You can
skew and distort only polygon slices.
Resizing and reshaping slices using these tools can create overlapping slices, because
the size of adjacent slice objects is not automatically adjusted. When slices overlap, the
topmost slice takes precedence if interactivity is involved. To avoid overlapping slices,
use slice guides to edit slices. For more information, see
slices" on page
To edit the shape 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 desired transformation.
For more information on using the transformation tools, see
selected objects and selections" on page
Transforming a rectangular slice may change its shape, position, or dimensions, but
the slice itself remains rectangular.
