Hi, I cropped an image that is portrait/verticle. I would like to make it horizontal/landscape. Since I cropped it, I need to rotate the canvas I suppose. Is there another way besides having to constantly click "rotate right" from the view menu? When rotating something that does not take up the whole canvas, there is a line and a circle to rotate the image using the mouse. Thanks

That works too! Thank you Alfred.

Hi, I can't read the rest of your instructions. I would like option B! Thanks!

This really works! I just sketched something on white paper and scanned it to a png and then used the filter in Affinity Photo and it worked incredibly well! Thanks.

Thank you. That is more of what I would like to do. Highlight a sentence(s) and particular words.

That looks great! Thanks! I missed the background color when looking at the panel.

Hi, If I select some text in a text frame, can I do either to it? Put some color behind it? Besides changing the text color. If I wanted to emphasize a block of text in a text frame (but not all), how would I do that? Thanks, -fp

Well, I am pretty much done for now. I have attached .jpgs of the front and back. Thanks for everyone's help!!

Recolor adjustment works great! Thanks!

Wow, you really brought out all of the detail with the crucifix!

Those look so nice! I will use them and see if I can figure out what you did to the originals. Thanks!

Worked for me too! Thanks!

Well I made one using brushes that I purchased and copied and pasted the bead. It came with tons of other types of brushes: https://artifexforge.com/product/neon-ad/ I have only messed around with it and haven't made anything fancy. It is fun! Thanks! I will try your suggestion tonight.

Hi, I organized beads (made from a brush) into different groups. How would I change all their colors at once (from purple to blue, for instance)? I would I change the sizes of the larger/blue ones? Or can not this be done and each one has to be changed individually (there are over 50!). I realize you don't have the brush I used. Not sure if this is a problem. Also, I would like to add an adjustment layer to the smaller, purple ones. Such as "Brightness and Contrast" or "Vibrance", etc... to make them stand out a little more. Thanks!

Thanks! You know what I would like to do, is "raise" the two black and white images and/or make them both silver. Something to make them stand out because the beads are sort of "3D" looking. I am now grouping all the beads into decades so I can make changing their colors easier. At least, I think that will help the process.

Oh, by the way. I am going to make others using what I learned from people in the post of mine with the "Purple Sphere" and use gradients that I learned how from V_kyr and others here. Thanks again all.

Attached is my finished rosary, with Artifex Forge Neon Light Brushes and Chains. I am going to add "instructions" on how to say the rosary and the associated prayers and make a booklet out of it, with Affinity Publisher. I guess I could do the rest in Designer. Thank you all for your help!

Still trying to get the neon-brush stroke to fit inside a circle that I drew. But as far as my resizing problem, I need to select the whole layer and make sure that "Scale with Object" is checked in the layers panel. Nice!

But I still can't use the dot created by the brush by copy and pasting it into a new Designer document. It shows up like I posted above with a tiny circle and outside fill around it. I would like to be able to use these in another document and also different colors.

Yes, that was his neon-dot brush that he used (part of his Neon Brush Pack) to create an example of a round dot/circle. But how did he get it so circle like instead of a glob? I guess I will have to ask him unless you have an idea. Thanks!

I get the same problem/effect when copying and pasting it into a new document. neoncirclenewdocument.afdesign

Elipse and a curve. Round Bead-Purple-FromJeremy.afdesign

My, that is pretty easy (and a blast to do!)! v_kyr. I would also like to know how I can use the neon-dot that was created using a brush from Artifex Forge (the owner -Jermey Child -did it for me, not me). How to copy and duplicate it to make a rosary. Thanks!!!

>>Your beads are strangely compound together, see the ellipse and radial gradient I've used here instead ... I assume you are using the .aphoto file, v_kyr? Not the neon-purple designer file. Don't know what you exactly mean by "compounded together" but I will follow your video. Thanks for that!
