I was unable to save a shortcut in Miscellaneous for the "set fill to black and white" shortcut. I could inset a value (in my case a "d or D" ) but it would disappear on closing regardless of whether I used "save" or just exited. I had previously created that shortcut in version 1.8 on my other PC, which is now running 1.9, so I exported to a file and then imported to my other PC and that shortcut now works in the second PC.

I believe on the right click and "convert to curves" for a shape the node tool previously was selected by default but for me it is not, and a reset did not change it.

Thanks for that information Gary. I over-looked the trapezoid in the long list of shapes. The node tool will be more useful in my current need but it is good to know it's there.

The last image was 144 x 144 DPI and 4.3 x 5.5 inches. .. and yes the node tool, which I did not know about works! Also once I had used the node tool the "convert to curves" also works! Thank you very much for your help, Walt. Larry

I got a popup window with a black exclamation point, a "-200" and an "OK" and "upload failed"

Thanks again Walt. I tried drag and drop and uploading the 213kb image but it failed, 3 times. It just isn't my day: > )

Thanks Walt. Doing what you suggested makes a rectangle of different sizes same as before. I want to make a parallelogram with unequal sides like a keystone. Perhaps you can suggest how to and an image as a .jpg to this forum and not as a .zip Thanks for your suggestion. Larry Clipboard01.zip

I'm using Affinity Photo 1.8.3.641 on both my laptop and desktop, both are new Dells, 4 months old with i7 processors and NVIDIA video cards. If draw a rectangle on a pixel document and then right click and select convert to curves the layer changes from rectangle to (Curve) in the layers panel but the rectangle does not allow me to change the shape to a parallelogram and the corners and midpoints remain circles and not little squares. Last time I did this there was no problem. I've tried new documents and the same jpg I was successful with previously in both computers. Thanks for any help or suggestions. Larry Curves fail.zip
