By default, Photoshop displays the current document file size at the bottom-left corner of the document. You can change it to display document dimensions by clicking the black arrow to the right of the field and choosing Show --> Document Dimensions. Additionally, you can choose other display options such as the color profile that is currently applied, or the tool that you currently have selected.
Photoshop uses inches as the default measurement for displaying document dimensions, but you can change this in the Units & Rulers panel of the Preferences dialog box. From the Photoshop menu (Mac) or the Edit menu (Windows), choose Preferences --> Units & Rulers , and select your preferred unit of measurement from the Rulers drop-down list. If it helps you to better understand resolution and how to resize images, choose Pixels rather than Inches as you’re working in this book. It’s important to start thinking of your images in terms of pixels, which is ultimately what you are working with.
You can also choose a different unit of measurement from the Cursor Coordinates pop-up menu available in the Info palette. Choose Window --> Info to display the palette, and then click and hold the + next to the X/Y coordinates at the bottom left to access the menu.
It’s also possible to change measurement units by Control+clicking (Mac) or right-clicking (Windows) in the ruler area. Press F/Ctrl+R to make the rulers visible, then Ctrl+click / rightclick in the vertical or horizontal ruler area to access the pop-up menu and choose your preferred unit of measurement.
Changing the default unit of measurement in any of these locations also changes the measurement that is displayed at the bottom left of the document window and at the bottom of the Info palette (when it’s made visible).
Controlling the Info Palette Display
You can choose what document information you’d like displayed at the bottom of the Info palette. Choose Palette Options from the Info palette menu and select your preferred options at the bottom of the Info Palette Options dialog box. You can choose as many or as few as you like. Click OK to apply. The Info palette here has been modified to display all status information.
