In Photoshop, is there a way to set the exact dimensions for a selection (if you're unsure as to what I'm talking about, I mean the 'marching ants')? As in, once I've made a selection, change the dimensions of the selection to a specific size (like 100x100)?
Help appreciated. The only related info I can find in support and online is setting specific dimensions for cropping...!

The closest option available is transform selection, but it only allows you to scale the image by a percentage (100%), not by actual, specific size (100px).
