Cropping while maintaining ratio
carl123 replied to THocking's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Can you elaborate more on what you are trying to do. From the 2 images you have uploaded you appear to have cropped an exact 500px X 500px image from the exact centre of the larger image Is this what you want to do to all your images, as you state... Which implies a different height value for some images Maybe if you could upload some more examples of what image you start with and what you want to end up with that would help -
Maybe, but is he working on something really, really, really big?

Placing cutout selection into new image

Maybe there's little activity on the forums from everyone at Affinity/Canva because they are all working on something big, something really big, something really, really, really big.

Creating and using a 'Light Ring' Layer
carl123 replied to jenGo_pHoto's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
The tutorial is an affinity one The light ring appears to be a Shutterstock image available here https://www.shutterstock.com/image-vector/abstract-multicolor-ring-line-light-isolated-1652250736 but searching for something similar (but free) would give a similar effect (as it's just an image) -
To see things clearer, max out the Flow and Strength settings and choose a decent size Basic/Default/Solid brush (e.g. 300px) Smudge something, release mouse button, hold Shift down and smudge somewhere else You should see the new smudge follow the last smudge as long as shift is held down If not, someone on a Mac will have to check it for you

Affinity Photo Brush Lag

In Edit > Settings > Tools There are 3 different options for Tablet Input Method Try each one (you need to restart APhoto each time you change this setting) If that does not work also check your Tablet software for any other configuration settings you can change PS Which Tablet are you using?- 9 replies

ratio not the same when zooming the cut-field

Reported previously & logged Best to use Original Ratio on the dropdown not Unconstrained (with the Shift key) for now -
Placing images and retaining original dpi
carl123 replied to ChristineH's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
What is the DPI of the Publisher document? -
I don't think it's broken or a bug "Shape Corners" refers to Shapes using one of the Shape Tools. Once you use the Corner Tool on a Shape it is no longer a Shape, it is now a Curve. That option does not apply to curves What you probably should be advocating for is a feature request for the Corner Tool to have an option for the corners to "scale with object" and not having to bake them to get that effect (But I believe that may have already been requested) Also, your video may be flawed. For the Shape Override options to have any effect you have to switch on Scale Override, your video is unclear if you have done that as I would expect the scale override button to be a lot darker when on, as it is on Windows. But I guess that could be due to differences on a Mac versus Windows or a contrast setting somewhere. (I don't have a Mac to test this but someone with a Mac may be able to clarify it, one way or the other) If the above is unclear, please refer to the Help file to understand how that option works to see if you have actually activated it

1. Select both objects 2. ALT+Click on the Rectangle - This sets it as the key object and it will not move 3. Layer > Alignment > Align Centre Note: If you actually wanted the Ellipse inside the Rectangle then, also, do... 4. Layer > Alignment > Align Middle Your post was a little unclear if that was what you actually wanted

Does the Serif development team still exist?
carl123 replied to JpLaf's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Unfortunately, there is no way we can know that without access to the website/forum statistics showing things like how many daily visitors there are to the forum and if they use the search functions. For all we know the "majority of users" do perform a search and find the solution/information they are looking for and hence have no need to post about it and simply leave the forum to carry on with their work, happy that their query is now resolved. Just because it's obvious that some users don't use the search functions (for whatever reasons) we cannot use that fact to conclude that this is the behaviour of the "majority of users" who access the forum. Indeed, it could be as low as a few percentages of the daily visitors. We simply don't know unless we are actually analysing our website/forum traffic and the pages visited. -
Latest Update 2.6.3 for Windows and MAC

Can you upload that .af file to see if others can replicate the freeze you encountered? If they can it will make the Devs role easier in trying to find out what is causing it -
Can’t replace one instance of linked or embedded media
carl123 replied to dantaylr's topic in V2 Bugs found on iPad
Is this an iPad "quirk" as on the Desktop I can replace one image with a different one and it works as expected
