hi in this video I'm going to show you
0:02
on how to rotate canvas inside of your
0:05
design in canva so the question is can
0:09
you rotate let's say a horizontal
0:11
document into a vertical document is it
0:13
possible well the short answer is no
0:16
it's not possible you cannot create a
0:18
canvas let's say I have this vertical
0:21
document and then I want to rotate the
0:23
entire theme to be a horizontal document
0:26
and it's even more impossible if you
0:28
just want to apply that to just as
0:30
specific page canva cannot do that
0:32
unfortunately but the closest thing we
0:35
can do are either rotating the uh
0:39
document like rotating all the elements
0:41
or you can also try to resize H sorry
0:44
create a copy and then resize the new
0:46
document for example I have this
0:48
vertical document and I could just go to
0:52
resize and I'm going to turn this into a
0:55
uh horizontal orientation I'm going to
0:58
select let's say PR
1:00
ations and yeah I'm going to use 1920 by
1:04
1080p so previously it was 1080p by 1920
1:08
but now I'm choosing this one so the
1:10
it's the opposite of the spec ratio that
1:12
I'm I'm having right now and after that
1:15
you want to click copy and resize so
1:18
canva will try to redesign everything
1:21
everything that you have in this
1:22
document into a new format that is
1:24
widely different it's not going to be
1:27
perfect but sometimes it is good enough
1:29
so this is the preview I think it looks
1:30
pretty good and we can click open
1:32
presentation to see uh the result of the
1:36
conversion and there you go this is the
1:38
result and I think it's not
1:40
disappointing it's not the best and you
1:42
can see there are some extra space that
1:44
we could use but this is at least
1:47
something that we can do in confa
1:49
another method is simply by just
1:52
rotating all the elements inside of the
1:56
existing document like you you keep the
1:59
orientation but the elements are in a
2:01
different uh Direction so let me give
2:04
you an example I have this uh second
2:07
page and the simple way to rotate all
2:09
the elements is just selecting all you
2:11
can click and drag anywhere to cover all
2:13
the elements in this page and you want
2:15
to click group so previously it was was
2:18
like this and then you want to click
2:20
group and later you'll see that there's
2:22
only one rotating button you can click
2:25
on it and drag it to the left or to the
2:28
right to rotate this particular
2:29
particular element now usually the
2:32
background is not going to be in fault
2:34
but in case you want you can actually
2:36
detach the background right click on it
2:38
and click the tach image from the
2:39
background and only after that we can
2:42
rotate the document to a different
2:45
direction and there you
2:48
go and I'm going to make it bigger and
2:51
lastly let's put it to the back
2:54
or like that send it to back so it's
2:58
very close it's not perfect but yeah
3:00
that's another alternative that you can
3:02
try this is probably only work if you
3:05
have a square document like this one I
3:08
could for example group them together
3:11
again and I could rotate the whole thing
3:14
and I just need to make some minor
3:16
adjustment to make it look great so yeah
3:19
that's basically it that's the two
3:22
methods you can try to rotate canvas
3:24
inside of Cana I hope you find this
