Has anyone run into a situation where they cannot scale or rotate or shear an image they drag into their Affinity Photo document? I can select it with the move tool and the blue selection box appears as normal, but grab a corner or side node and try to drag and nothing happens. It will move by using the keyboard arrow keys only. I tried using my wacom stylus as well as the built in mouse on the laptop to no avail. I added other images to the file and they had the same issue. If I save and close the file and re-open, it works as expected. The layer is not locked. I also saved the file and opened it in Photo on a different computer and it worked just fine. I am thinking the issue is isolated to the one machine and a setting made with that. If anyone has any suggestions as to what might cause this non-responsiveness, I'd appreciate the help.

thanks

Is the image you are working on an (Image) layer or a (Pixel) layer? Look at the layer name in the Layers panel. If it says (Image), then you may need to rasterize the layer: Layer > Rasterize. Try it and see.

But it is not a problem to move and resize the image by mouse.
On the contrary, it is its advantage that it is always recalculated in the maximum available resolution.
