Thank you!

FWIW, there is no transform of the document, rotation or otherwise, when rotating with the trackpad because this only rotates the view of the canvas, not the document itself. (That's why Reset Rotation is on the View menu.)
The History panel only records actions that cause changes to the document, which is why, like zooming in or out, rotating the view is not recorded there. Similarly, since these actions do not change the document in any way, they are not saved with the document so the next time the document is opened, it reverts to the default unrotated view.

View - Reset Rotation should do the trick.
If you want to turn it off, go to Preferences - Tools - Enable canvas rotation with trackpad and uncheck it.
Cheers,
H

Thanks for your help, that's perfect. 

I don't think you can, and I think that's by design. Changes to most of the settings in the Context Toolbar for the Brush Tool (Opacity, Flow, Hardness, Symmetry, Mirror lock etc) are not retained between restarts.
However, if you hover your cursor over that button, you'll get a tooltip:

The clue's in "brush defaults'. If you click the More button to the left, you'll be able to edit the default settings for the chosen brush, including Dynamics:

The settings for the brushes in the Default set don't include pressure controls by default, but you can add them here, for example by changing Size Jitter to 100% and the controller to Pressure:

(Notice the difference in brush shape at the top of the panel after making the change.)
These brush editing settings are retained if you quit and restart the app. My 16px basic Round brush is now permanently* affected by pressure: 

 
* EDIT: well, semi-permanently. I can always change it back to the way it was, or do a full brush reset when starting the app.
 
 
 
 

Hi @gary danang, I think activating "Point Transform Tool" (F) should do what you are looking for.

I have been a LOT HAPPIER with refine since I learned what each of the controls does by practice after studying Help > [search]Refining pixel selection edges. Sometimes I do just skip refining selections, but not for hair, trees, etc. GL!

With simple groups you can use the external resizing handle at the bottom right-hand corner, in combination with the shift key to maintain proportions, and the text in the group will scale and remain editable:

This is in Designer, and a group of just two objects (text on a path, and a rectangle). I don't know how well it will scale to more complex groups.

Take a breath, turn off your screen, walk away from it, water a plant, talk to the cat, think about something else. Come back later, start with simple things.
Maybe post in your own language, someone here may well understand. 
Everyone is trying to help, but it's really unclear what you want to achieve. 
Sorry if I seemed antagonistic - take care of yourself.

I'm still not entirely sure what you want, but does this help:

Screen Recording 2021-07-30 at 10.09.38.mov In steps:
1) Open the image in Designer, switch to Pixel Persona.
2) Click the Flood Select tool in the white area to create a selection.
3) Press the Delete key to remove the white area. Deselect with Cmd-D.
4) Switch back to Designer Persona.
5) Draw a rectangle and drag it under the isolated Rubik's Cube in the Layers Panel.
6) Modify the colour of the rectangle.

Not at all - sometimes it just needs a second pair of eyes. ☺️

As far as I can see it's because you're trying to use the Clone Brush Tool on the High Frequency layer which, though selected, is unchecked and is thus invisible. You probably  need to select the Low Frequency layer before you'll see any change to your image. Again, a link to the James Ritson video you've referred to would make it easier for other forum members to work out what you're attempting to do.
 

For once...

We have no way of knowing from that screenshot how the two layers were ordered in the Layers panel or how either of them was filled with color or pixels.
If this is all you can post, please show us what the Layers panel looks like before the subtraction.
Edit: @h_d beat me to it.

Well, the world needs its share of idiots ....  sorry I had to be one this time around.  
Thank you for your comments and sorry for wasting your time.  

If you’re saying that you want to cut a shape out of a raster image it would have been helpful if you had mentioned that in your original post!
How have you created the shape that you intend to use?
P.S. It’s far from obvious what ‘Jesus H Christ’ has to do with any of this.

It can import and place them (as .pdf, .jpg, .png and quite few others). And you can create them manually. But it can't create graphs or pie charts from raw data in the way that spreadsheet programs like Numbers and Excel can.

Try this variation...

If you crop the Live Stack Group, then ungroup it in the Layer List and Rasterise and Trim each of the individual layers, you can then switch to Export persona and export the "cropped" and aligned slices.
If you export to a format that supports transparency (e.g. PNG) you will have your cropped images but they will be surrounded by transparent pixels that make up the original uncropped document size. This transparent area can be removed by Document > Clip Canvas
 
After the above, you can then run an Affinity batch job with a simple macro which does Document > Clip Canvas on all 1200 images created by the export persona. During this batch process you can also specify an alternative file format (such as JPG/TIFF) if required.
 

If you edit a brush (double-click it in the Brushes panel) then you can apply a small amount of random Hue Jitter in the Dynamics tab:

 
If you then paint in a brick-like colour you'll get a randomised effect:

But you'll probably have to experiment a bit to get something you're happy with.
 

Brilliant h_d, thanks for the help, much appreciated 👍
