How do I fit Google Drawing canvas to actual shapes?

Question

I have a Google Drawing amongst my Google docs files with a huge canvas.

The shape I drew within the image is a lot smaller than the canvas though. How can I tell Google Drawing to automatically shrink the size of the canvas to fit the size of my shape?

Answer 1

There is no way to do this automatically. The best way to do this would be to zoom to a level that allows you to quickly resize the canvas appropriately.

Go to View > Select zoom size (in or out or %) > use the drag-able corner in the bottom right of the canvas to resize the canvas.
