How to Make Multiple Elements the Same Size in Canva

If you are working with a Canva document and you want a lot of different elements to share the same size, here is how I do it.

The units depend on your document. Your design might use pixels, centimeters, millimeters, or inches. You can confirm the units on the rulers.

What resizes exactly when you Make Multiple Elements the Same Size in Canva

Most elements follow the numbers exactly. Frames, shapes, and regular photos will match the Width and Height you type. You can place them side by side to confirm they line up.

Some vector graphics keep their original proportions. A vector like my pyramid may respect the Height you set but make the Width wider to stay proportional. Keep that in mind if one object does not match the square size exactly.
