Resizing a group of identical objects
seyed replied to chr.schmitz's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Thank you @firstdefence for your detailed answer. But, I'm afraid your solution still will not solve my problem. Let me give an example. Here I have 128 circles, currently not filled and stroke width is 5pt. I want them to be bigger, say 10 pt, but their position should not change at all. I cannot do resizing since it changes the positions. changing the stroke width will cause donut shapes, and filling them does not really fill them. I also attached the .afdesign file. head_test_oc.afdesign- 30 replies

As @reglico mentioned, this way of resizing will change the position as well and it absolutely does not work for the current problem. I need a way that resizes the elements in their original position, so if you have a set of 100 points, I want to change each points' height and width without touching their relative position to each other. BTW, I am doing it by hand right now- 30 replies

Resizing a group of identical objects
seyed replied to chr.schmitz's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Hi Alfred I don't think so. Because the elements (which for me are usually circles or dots) are generated by another program like MATLAB or a script in Python and imported via PDF. I should not change them, or substitute them, first because they are meaningful because they are in a chart or graph and second because they are too many, like 100 or more. So, I think the thing that would help me is a group resizing. Of course, I'd appreciate it if you can point me another solution.- 30 replies

Hi, This would be a really good feature to add. I use affinity to make scientific figures and it so much happens that you want to change the size of a group of circles, dot or triangles. I have to do it manually now which is very time-consuming.- 30 replies

Export to PDF fails to preserve layers
seyed replied to seyed's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Thanks Mike, it was really confusing, I really thought I had some layers because they were there in the layers' panel :D. Your 4-layer file was really helpful. -

Actually really nice sketch ;), Thanks. I knew about artboards, but not about layers, and thanks to you and MikeW I just got it. -
Export to PDF fails to preserve layers
seyed posted a topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Hi, I recently migrated from illustrator, so I'm not sure if my question is even valid. I built up a document with layers, but after I exported it to PDF using the PDF (export) profile, and opened the generated PDF file, every info on the layer arrangement is lost. Acrobat also doesn't show the layers. I appreciate your help.
