Kiarian Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Using Affinity Photo on Windows 10, pressed F1 for help, loads up window. All fine. But now the help window is stuck in taskbar and cannot open. Closed and restarted. Opened up Designer and Publisher, and help is fine on those two. Still stuck on Affinity Photo. Any advice? I was trying to find out the clip to canvas toggle option. Image outside of canvas not showing, I want it to show, so two queries. Any help and advice appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 No advice from me on why the Help isn't opening for you in Photo. However, good the question you were trying to answer: there is no "clip to canvas" option in Photo. Items outside the canvas will be invisible, unless you expand the canvas to include them. Document > Clip Canvas (or possibly Unclip Canvas) would do that for you.

Wosven Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 There's a trick with righ-clicking and using the option "move" or making the object move by sliding on the border or the panel… it always happens at work with Acrobat opening on the landscape monitor instead of the one in portrait position… and with the top out of reach. But that's like shorcut… I can do them without thinking when I'm sitting, and can't tell or do them when I'm up. F11 won't put it on full screen?

Wosven Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 But the help seems to be an independent window, it never was clipped to the app when opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question about the Help window misbehaving was secondary to Kiarian's real question about whether Photo has a "Clip to Canvas" View Mode. Alfred and I are answering that question Wosven 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
