After more searching I find that using the hand tool it displays pixel size on the menu bar but not inches also is it possible to change the rulers sizes to show inches as default?

I have recently purchased Photo and it looks good, however I am used to PS CS5 and every time I try to do something using photo I end up going back to CS5. My first issue this morning is Image or canvas size, in PS it's under Image then image or canvas size and you have the answer in pixels and measurements and it's the sizes in inches that I want to see. Is this possible in Photo because I have searched in vain? And that brings me to my second problem, As I can't find the measurements (as above) I thought I would display the rulers and then be able to see the sizes but they appear in pixels too! I have searched about in preferences and can find no where to change the rulers to display sizes in Inches or even metric measurements? Am I looking for something that does not exist in Photo? I have spent ages without any success. People here who are experts will probably think these are dumb questions so I apologise in advance for asking but I am a total beginner in Photo but I would love to switch from PS to Photo.

Hello I am new here so please do forgive me if I am asking a silly question or in the wrong place. I have been using Photoshop CS5 for many years but am now trying out Affinity photo which I wish to buy. I am struggling with a few differences and one in particular has me perplexed and frustrated. I use CS5 to edit old pictures and patterns into fretwork designs {for cutting out in wood) In CS5 for curves I simply draw a round selection around the part then using Transform selection select the warp tool to alter the selection to match the object before using the paint brush to tidy the edges, then I invert the selection to do the other side. I hope I have described it so folk know what I am 'harping' on about. My problem is that I can't find a way to do this in Affinity photo, i.e. no warp selection tools Have I missed something or am I trying to find something that does not exist? I have added a picture of one such design to help explain what I mean. I have already edited this one in CS5 but added the selection to indicate the issue.
