Mr. Review reacted to R C-R in Cropping in Designer
Hi createsean,
Buying Affinity Photo & using it together with Affinity Designer allows you to do things that are otherwise difficult or impossible to do. You can seamlessly switch between them without having to stop & save your work via the File > Edit in Photo/Designer menu item, too.
That said, there may be a simpler way to crop a raster image document in AD if your intent is to convert it to a raster format file like PNG, JPEG, or TIFF: just switch to the Export persona use the Slice tool like a crop tool to create a new slice. In the Slices panel you get a new slice (default name is "slice1" but you can change that. Select it, choose the export options you want from the Export Options panel, then click on the 'export single item' next to it (looks like a box with an upward pointing arrow) & that cropped sliced will be saved without any of the other part of the image included.

Mr. Review reacted to heikehk in Croping the whole Document
Something like changing the Drawing Area similar to the possibility to do this in illustrator would be perfect for me. I was just irritated to see the cropping toll without the funcktionality for the whole document. But as i said a kind of adjusting the drawing area with a tool like in illustrator would be nice for me too.
I wil test your suggestions in the next days.
Thanks a lot
Heike

Mr. Review reacted to LyricsGirl in How to use one shape to subtract from another?
When you create a SHAPE you want to REMOVE from the White ( so the black shirt shows through after printing... at the top right of AD you will see (or should see) a group of images in a box titled
OPERATIONS. Ensure you SELECT the WHITE image that is to be printed TOGETHER with the Shape you want to REMOVE from the white. Then with these Selected go to the OPERATIONS Box and SELECT the second image to the right. It has a light blue square with a grey circle by it.The grey circle has the mathematical MINUS sign ( - ) on it. Click on that icon and Voila! there is now a Transparent area on the white image to be printed, where the black shirt will show through.
