    I'm unsure if this will apply to your specific workflow, however you may wish to try the below options:

    When using the Move Tool to resize your object, ensure that Force Pixel Alignment is enabled and Move By Whole Pixels is disabled on the top toolbar:

    This will ensure that your elements are on whole Pixel values for the X,Y & H,W transform and may reduce/resolve the blurriness you're seeing when Transforming.

    Alternatively, you can use the Blend Options to force Anti-aliasing to be off specific layers, which may also stop this from occurring.

    You can find the Blend Options under the Cog icon at the top of the Layers Studio and then change the Anti-aliasing setting as required:

    Note this setting applies to each layer individually and therefore will need to be changed across multiple layers, if necessary in your file.

    I hope this helps!

     

    Okay, it's not working well. If I edit some UI elements (not vector but raster) and try to resize a gradient (with transparency) with anti-aliasing turned off, after resizing, I end up with a blurred graphic. I have to work in GIMP and then copy the graphic to Affinity. Please consider adding a "resize tool" or something similar in the next updates. 🥹🙏

    ok its work nice!

    In the Settings (UI), choose to display more decimals for pixel units. There is probably some rounding there… 

     

    Or, in Transform panel, unlock dimensions and re-enter exactly "128 px" for each, so you'll be sure there is no partial pixel anymore. 

    i think artboard its separated documents... ok but why affinity add subpixels? its a super function of affinity software? 🙄

    well it still doesn't work after change decimals to 0 or 6 I have to do it manually and transform....

  4. Hi,

    I know there was already a topic like this. But always, when I try to resize pixel art or old graphics (low resolution), it always destroys my work and creates blurred edges.

    Affinity Photo has a tool named Pixel Tool, and in Serif 2.3, they added a pixel grid. And I think Affinity can be good software for editing pixel art graphics, but having the ability to change interpolation during resizing would significantly enhance its capabilities in this regard. 

     

    I do not want to rescale the whole document, I want to rescale one or two elements in the document.

     

    Like Draw Plus 😎 (bugged version with immutable german language as default):

    or like Gimp:

    Which application and what release of that application are you using?

    I can see this in Photo 2.2.1 (and 2.3.0 beta), and for me the rotation is reset and the image is zoomed out (smaller) when I return to the original document tab. This should be posted to the Bugs forum, rather than here as Feedback.

    As you didn't mention the zooming, I wonder if you're on V1, where the rotation resetting also occurs but the zooming doesn't (for me).

    I use version 2.2.1 (Windows version)

    Zoom is fine, but rotate is always reset.

    Thanks Hangman - I was about to reply with the same suggestions as above!

    The order of operations is what's important here, when you draw your Quick Shape and use the Text Tool, it is converted to a 'Shape Text' object, which cannot be edited with the Node Tool, as is the case with Quick Shape objects.

    When filling this Shape Text object with text and then using Convert to Curves, it's expected that the entire selected layer/object is converted, meaning your text is also converted to curves.

    However, as shown above, if you first draw your Quick Shape and now use Convert to Curves first, then use the Text Tool on the resulting Curves object, you will see this is now a 'Curve Text' object, which can be manipulated with the Node Tool as expected - but allows for text editing within, rather than having text that has been converted to Curves.

    I hope this clears things up :)

    I think it would be nice if it could be converted into a curve in the "Text frame". Please save this as a suggestion.
