The only time you set the pixel size is when you export to use the file outside of Photos.


Select the image and use file->export-> export modified. A dialog box will pop up giving you control over the pixel size. (You might have to click the disclosure triangle and select the "custom" size)


What you *can* do is crop, which you need to do before export. Export does not crop the image. You only get to set a single pixel dimension.


For example if your image is 3:2 from the camera, you would need to set up a 16:9 crop to get the image in the correct aspect ratio before exporting.
