Hi I being trying to find a way to transform part of a vector selection. Grab some nods in my image and transform like scale and rotate..

Hi. Please make in 1.5 Photo and Designer better modifications. First of all ability to place Linked, not only embedded document, converting selected layers to embedded/linked document. After applying Perspective tool to embedded document it becomes just pixel layer, make it keeping smart object like in Photoshop after applying any modifications. Add ability to make independent copy on embedded document, not only instance. Converting between Linked/Embedded. Look how it works in Photoshop, all modifications on Smart Object are just adding like smart filters or smart modifiers. It is very important to have this features! Thank you.

I know this has been asked at least a couple of times, but I am still needing to copy, edit in illustrator, then paste in order to perform transforms (rotate, scale, move) on selected nodes. Can we please get either an indicator of whether this is going to be addressed soon or any workarounds/workflows that can make this less painful? The more I dive into original works in Designer the more I don't understand how artists cope without this capability? Many thanks in advance - John

Hi This is my first questions as a new Affinity user. I try to transform and duplicate and let Affinity do the job for me. I will set a "start figure" and a "end figure". Then I try to find a way to tell Affinity how many steps the transformation will be in. But I can´t find it. Hope you understand what I try to explain. Please see my document for an example. Kind regards, Roger Untitled.afdesign -
I recently purchased AD and am unable to precisely size an object. the Transform Panel under layers only shows Flip or Rotate. Where can I go to do this? I'm using IOs Mountain Lion.
-
(not a feature, a simple change) I LOVED that affinity assumes you don't want to screw with typography during transforms, so that shift isn't required to constrain XY during transform. But then it blows that by being inconsistent on shape or curve transforms, which does my head in. This would be a simple change to make consistent across the board, and I can't see any good reason to not. Thanks again for this great app.

I just bought AD and I do not care if it does everything I want. I just want to explore it and contribute to this fine tool and its evolution. I do mostly abstract geometrical art and am wondering if it can do the following functions. 1. Something similar to the "Adobe Transform Effect Tool" with Copies (repeater), rotation, position and scale control. I use this tool to create repeated object patterns in spirals or horizontal stripes. 2. Rotation and copy function. I use this to create mandala patterns around circles. This would also be a part of a repeater function. 3. Custom brushes - Pattern, Art, Scatter - I use this a lot to create custom borders that tile the object. For example I would like to have a brush with all dots that scales based on pen pressure. Illustrator way to do this is a pain making all the dots in a line first. If AD has a repeater function please share the terminology used in user manual for me to learn. -
Hello, one of a basic/daily tool we use in Photoshop is the transform tool. It is missing in Affinity. Is it plan to implement it in a close future ? Thanks

I would like to see something similar to 'transform each' in Illustrator where multiple selected elements can be scaled about their centers (or centres) an equal amount. This is useful for scientific illustratrions where multiple symbols need rescaling. Thank you for providing a really useful tool and I look forward to seeing updates!

Hello, I have one (or two ;)) suggestions: Function: perspective warp or transformation 1) Keeping the proportions while dragging an anker point of the perspective warp tool. 2) And oppositely not keeping while pressing and holding the shift key. I like the way how to transform in Affinity Photo without "cmd & T" or "cmd & F". When I use move tool, I can easily transform. The proportions will be keeped automatically. And with holding the "shift"-key, the free transformation without proportions is possible. A different way compared to other softwares. I like it! But it is not logical, that this system doesn't work with the perspective warp. It would be fine, when it would work there in the same way. I provided a YouTube-Tutorial to the topic "transformation". Ciao Jack Bauer Berlin, Germany https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUm1DY2i_R4-

Can the shape transform and text transform controls be the same or similar at least? e.g. When selecting a corner point and moving mouse to change the shape/transform size etc: For shapes: Hold shift+cmd, move mouse = For Text: Hold Cmd, move mouse For shapes: Hold shift, move mouse = For Text: Hold nothing, move mouse So when I'm selecting an shape and fixing it, then a text, it gets a bit confusing sometimes. I accidentally use text transform protocol for shape transformation vice versa. It feels disorienting like getting used to working in one program or OS, then trying to do the same thing in another program or OS. -
Hello, I noticed for example when using the perspective tool, hitting the escape key will cancel the operation, but with the mesh tool it doesn't along with the crop tool. Some of this inconsistency, could use more work. Yes, you can click the "cancel" instead of apply on the toolbar, but some of us keyboard shortcut power users often prefer keyboard alternatives too as a lot of use multiple input devices, I feel that the escape key should always be accessible during instances like these. I haven't used it much yet, but the develop persona could possibly find use with this, so when a user attempts to do something in this mode but changes their mind, pressing the escape cancels the transformations and takes them back to the photo persona. VERY excited about the latest beta! Thanks -
Hello… I've been using the "Perspective Tool" in place of the "Transform" feature that I use with Photoshop. While trying to skew and straighten images, I'm used to dragging in guides while the transform mode is active… However with Photo I'm finding that the perspective tool doesn't allow dragging in guides while active, I've been getting around this by predicting where I would want the guidelines before using the tool which is more work. It's very very convenient to just do this on the fly, as one doesn't have to cancel or apply just to go back to add in additional guides (or remove). I would assume this improvement would apply to the Mesh Warp tool also? What I'm asking, perhaps Photo overall should just allow guides to be placed onto the canvas even while certain tools are actively live. Thank you

Please let me easily transform any vector object. With a transform tool I could set the perspective right, and distort groups and other objects. For instance: I have a group of rectangles, and I want to transform and distort this group as if it was a line. I have a rectangle and I want to put it in perspective, or make a 3D effect. It would be great either have a transform tool similar to photoshop and the ability to select for instance the outer corners of a rectangle and option drag them towards the middle in the same amount. I definitely need a line tool. I want to edit every single bit of a line. I the ability to make a dashed or a dotted line. Of course I could use cmd-j, but I want it as a line so I can distort it. Also I want dashed lines for rectangles, etc. It would be great to turn a group of objects into a line, like when you have a couple of objects and you want to put them on a path and behave like they were a line.

So I followed the instructions for transforming a pixel selection and tried it multiple times, but I must be missing something. Here's what's happening: I have a single layer with some content. I make a marquee selection. I press Q. The screen outside the marquee goes monocrome. I press V. Handles appear on the selection. I drag a handle. The selection changes. However, my expectation was that the content would be stretched. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance. -
Just bought Affinity Designer and am really pleased after an hour but wondered if there was a way to drag the edges between nodes instead of it turning straight edge in to a curve when i try? I'm using the node tool assuming it would work similar to the white arrow in Illustrator. -
Is there anyway to shrink one half of a layer? Similar to taking a square that's been converted to curves and reshaping it into a trapezoid, can something like this be done with a layer to resize the contents of the layer such that one end is resized while the other remains the same? Specifically, I've created a brick wall pattern with rectangles. All the rectangles are in the same layer. But now I would like to make a perspective effect with the lower bricks being smaller and the upper bricks being larger. Manually resizing each brick would certainly be a hassle and it would be nice if I could just resize the entire layer at once such that all the rectangular bricks become trapezoids of the appropriate sizes. Is there a simple way of doing this? Thanks! -
An option for the transform panel to show an objects size including its stroke. -- I've just been creating some graphics in multiple widths; 60px, 120px, 200px wide. The outermost element was a rectangle with a stroke. in order to scale the graphics efficiently via the transform panel I found my self having to use mental arithmetic, and multiple attempts, to account for the stroke width as this is not included in the dimensions shown in the Transform panel. This would be a useful addition as an option for those of us needing precise scaling of stroked objects. Thanks -
Can the transform panel show the size of an object including its stroke? Thanks

When directly entering values it seems impossible to enter negative rotation values. Not sure if there's a switch for changing between clockwise/anti-clockwise, either. -
We want's it. That is all. I'm figuring this might actually be an easy one. And I do really really miss this facility.. It's the sort of thing that one wants at the heart of the creative process, so it's very jarring to have to go to another app in the middle of the act, as it were - which may lose various affinity nicenesses. TIA.

Crop tool transform palette live update
DrPocter posted a topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
When I resize a, say, rectangle, I can look at the Transform-palette and see the values change as I move my mouse. It would be nice if I could have the same with the crop tool. Currently, when I crop an image, the values in the Transform palette are updated, but I have to let go of the mouse button first. They don't change as I move the boundaries of the cropped area. -
Dear All, How can I precise transform (numeric) an object. I want to move my duplicated object lets say 1cm right, and then 2cm down? Does AD have this possibility at all? Can I do precise positioning of guides and objects? Thanks in advance, P. -
This one is driving me crazy, particularly as AD's freehand-like selection savvyness is one of the things i really love about the app. I have this world map with african countries on one layer, the rest on another (and a third layer for text). I want to scale the whole world up, so africa fills more of the artboard, but I can't select-all, 'move' is effectively stuck as 'pan'. Is this a bug or what stupd thing am i missing. A bit urgent this one! I really don't want to resort to using ai to do something so basic. thanks video elements 1.afdesign
