I have the latest version of Affinity and the latest version of macOS. I am new to Affinity, I am having a problem with the crop tool. I have a picture on the screen that is 11 by 7.33 inches. I wish to trim off the excess length and resample to get an 11x8.5 inch image for printing. When I try to make 5x7 image, the crop guides maintain proportions as I select the portion of the image I want. The 8x10 does not. It appears as an 8x10 and when I select the corner, the arrows only pointing in and out, but the corner will move in any directions thus changing the proportions. When I try to change the numbers for the size of an 5x7 to make a 7 x 5 the program resets the dimensions to 7x7 and the crop is proportional. I tried custom size and entered 11 x 8.5, it took it, but the resulting crop was unconstrained. Finally after several attempts, the system no longer allows me to change the dimension units and it is stuck at pixel size. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
