Alright, I am sure someone else has probably brought it up at some point or another, but I couldn't see it in my cursory look through the request page, so here I go.

I'd really like to see a Scale tool implemented like the one in Illustrator, where you can select multiple nodes and scale them in or outwards from the center point of the selection. I have been a vector artist for many, many years, coming up on 20 years soon, and not being able to select specific nodes from a shape and scale them in relation to the selection is really keeping me from making Designer my go to for vector art. It's such a huge part of my work flow while putting together basic designs that I just feel like something is missing when I can't just hit S and make whatever changes necessary

I show what I mean in the video, but if Affinity Designer had this one singular function added, I would never have to pay for Illustrator ever again. Please, please consider adding in something like this, it would be amazing.

Thanks for your time.

You're welcome - at least I saved you a little money for paying the Illustrator :-)

Oh  I see! That is what I was missing! Hahaha I feel dumb for missing that transform option in the corner. Thank you very much!

Select node with Node Tool, set Transform Mode, resize (with Ctrl + Shift).
