Calculating Canvas Size

I am working on a drawing of a house I am not sure how to set the dimension of the pixels of the canvas. I wont the max zoom in view to be 640 X 480, or something in this area.

So how to I calculate the total number of pixels for the full view?

Why do you need to worry about the canvas size when you can crop the final image down to almost any size you want --with most programs?

It sounds like you are saying I should start big. I can aways cut it down if it is too large. So I think I will work with a 2000 range canvas.

I just have this fear of spinning my wheels with a canvas that is too large.

Thanks for responding Ken.

You can also increase the canvas size later if you find you don't have enough space.

There is a control panel that adds pixels to the top, left, bottom, and right. I should spend a session resizing the canvas. Should also look into if it is possible to have different size canvas in the same project.
