deepblue Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Hi there, I just installed the current beta version of Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.9.0.13). About my system: Apple Mac Mini (mid 2010) with the operating system: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 The problem with the current beta is that when I press the option key and turn the scroll wheel on the Mighty Mouse, the entire page rotates automatically in Affinity Designer. Is that a bug or a special feature? Many greetings and thanks Mark -- Apple 2020 Mac Mini M1 Chip (16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD) Affinity V2 Universallizenz 2.3.1 + always latest beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holding the option key rotates the canvas. Holding additionally the Control key, the canvas is rotated in 10° steps.

deepblue Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 @Joachim_LThank you for this information. OK, this feature is new since version 1.9. Unfortunately, I don't want to turn the page. It happens very quickly and the page is rotating. You can then no longer undo this rotation. This function is sometimes not that optimal. How can I undo a page that has been rotated? -- Apple 2020 Mac Mini M1 Chip (16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD) Affinity V2 Universallizenz 2.3.1 + always latest beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted January 8, 2021 Staff Share Posted January 8, 2021 Hi deepblue, There is an option in Preferences > Tools that should be able to disable this behaviour called 'Enable canvas rotation with Cmd+Scroll Wheel'. Also the page rotation can be reset by going to View > Reset Rotation. deepblue and Gokhan Eser 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) I was able to solve my problem with your answer. Thank you for your quick help 😃 I switched from Adobe Illustrator to Affinity Designer. I'm really surprised how well and quickly the Affinity Designer works. Thanks!
