Rectangular marque. Begin drawing eks elliptical marque. Hold down space to move the marque to another position. Space bar changes the size of the shape and does not move the shape. Holding down the spacebar should move the marque. Click eks Rectangle tool. Start to draw the size of the shape and hold down space bar to move the shape. One is able to move the shape by holding down the spacebar. Conclusion any tool that draws a shape Rectangle tool, Marque Tool or anything else. As one begins to create the shape holding down the space bar should move the shape around, so one has better control over where one begins. This means the short cuts (keyboard command) for the Rectangle tool should should also be reflected in other tools. As it would keep a nice consistency in regards to similar methods/techniques. NB! 1. One begins to draw out a shape and notices one wants to readjust the starting point. 2. One then holds down the space bar to align the starting point. (moves the shape one is drawing out) 3. One then continues to draw out the shape. Having a way to adjust the starting point by holding down the space bar is a technique I have used a lot in Photoshop as it helps me to realign where the shape begins.

What title says. Steps to reproduce: place picture stretch it to cover bleeds, switch to Photo, marque selection can't be drawn on bleed. However when moving existing marque it can overlap bleed with no problem.

I continue this topic: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/560-selection-marqu%C3%A9-tools-constrain-aspect-ratio-and-slow-speed/&p=1781 Keys do work now but not mac-like. A lack in speed came back. Invisibility while dragging. // beta 18306. In detail: 1. The marque tool now works with keyboard keys and combined keys but one not mac-like: "Shift" constrains aspect ratio. "Option" substracts a selection from an existing selection. "Control" adds a selection to an existing selection. –> "Control" is not mac-like to encrease a selection. In mac I use "command" to add sth to an existing selection – both in applications and system/finder. You simply might want to change "Control" into "Command". (discussed before: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/661-option-drag-to-copyduplicate/&p=2317 2. I experience a lack in speed while dragging, though this delay appeared to be solved in a previous beta. When I drag with the marque tool it takes obviously time to show my drag action on screen. 3. Invisible drag action while dragging. When I drag with the marque tool I do not see any response while dragging. A drag action becomes visible after dragging. If a key is hit while dragging the drag action gets visible only after the mouse/key got released.
