eobet Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 You can only grab the corners of the border that appears with the perspective tool. Sometimes, I'd like to grab the edges too to move an entire side. Procreate on the iPad did this very well with the distort tool. Affinity should take som inspiration from that, because right now, the perspective tool is a bit cumbersome to use. Frozen Death Knight 1 Quote
PaulEC Posted December 1, 2021 Posted December 1, 2021 Have you tried using the Mesh Warp Tool instead? (Unlike the Perspective Tool you can select more than one node at once.)

carl123 Posted December 9, 2021 Posted December 9, 2021 Do you have a before and after example of what you are looking to do?

GarryP Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 I can’t see the GIF properly because a ‘cookie permissions pop-up’ is blocking most if the browser window, and I don’t wish to have imgur.com cookies on my machine if I can help it. Did you know that you can attach GIFs directly to your forum posts, just as you would attach most other image files? Oher than that, from the little of what I can see of the GIF, you are ‘bending’ one side of the selected area and that isn’t what the Perspective Tool is for. The Perspective Tool has been designed to allow the user to change the perspective of an image and perspective doesn’t ‘bend’, it goes in straight lines. Maybe I haven’t been able to understand what you want properly because I can’t see the GIF properly. Quote
