[Resize Frame with Image]

I also find working with images very awkward. Additionally, I see no way to alter the picture frame with the Pen tool. I am in constant need of thisbecause I need to segregate elements in images, and they don't always neatly crop horizontal and vertical.

It does what you just wrote, but it is not what I had in mind. Say, I size an image but I would like to crop it on one side. How do you do this without the image changes its aspect ratio?

Use the cropping tool.

Hi Barry_Edmiston,

These are just the names of open documents (i.e. document tabs), not features/tools.

Thanks!

Hi, just watched the very helpful Getting Started video, now two years old. It shows a toolbar with "01 - Levels 02 - Black and White" etc. Does this no longer exist?

Thanks for that. Will have to look again (right now on iPad) once back on desktop. I have thousands of book publshing image EPS files going back to the 80s and 45 MB Syquest disks, when size mattered and they saved disk space. At first glance with Affinity, they seemed deficient. Will investigate further!

Looking again, I see that they are in fact identical in size: 1904 x 1008 px.

Affinity treats an EPS image very differently than Photoshop!

Here are my preference panels with no offset issue. Maybe it's something with the code of the "General" panel?

I don't know what you mean by "Display settings." I see no reference to that term in Affinity documentation. Samsung monitor, screen size 1920 x 1080. Mac Mini 2011/High Sierra. Here's another example of offset check marks.

[Specify which dimension in image resize]

In Resize Document and Resize Canvas, there is no specification which dimension refers to height and which to width. For an infrequent user with an almost-square image, this could create problems.
