Sorry, I think I have found the answer. It seems to have to do with the strength of pressing the finger on the trackpad. I didn't know that I was so strong 😳Thank you again for your help!

Thank you for your hints. I tried once again, for example to drag the text more to the right, but still can't manage. I use the trackpad so it would be a one-finger-click which means a left-click but the result is strangely enough the same as if I would use 2 fingers/right-click. Do you have an idea what might be wrong???

When I want to edit text - either shift the text into another position or alter the size by dragging the text box - I can't and the drop box shown in the photo appears. What am I misdoing?? Thanks for your help as I have no idea...

Thank you so much Alfred, this was what I misdid! Now it works perfectly

Masks should be visualized by pressing the option key but this doesn't work on my Mac. Nothing happens if I do so. What have I misdone?

Thank you very much! I must have deselected the layer...Now it works perfectly!

Hi and thank you for your quick answer. I understand that the new layer which is duplicated from a layer which has already been rotated by e.g. 6° has exactly this 6° so this would have no impact. But strangely enough I succeeded in doing that for the first time...I got an Affinity guide book which says to do so to get a picture like the one you see in the attachment. If I had to type in 6/12/18/24 and so on this would be elaborate and as I said before I once succeeded ...

Hi, I have some trouble with the rotate function (via Studio/transform). If I duplicate the layer I want to rotate, then choose the Move-button and then the transform function I have either the problem that -90° is shown instead of 0° so that the picture will rotate by 90° per step, or, what is worse, if I duplicate the last layer, which has - luckily - been rotated by 6°, the duplicated layer does not rotate any more. If I look into the transformation function of this layer, it shows 6 ° but nothing happens. What is the problem?? Thank you for your help. Rotation.tiff
