CeresNT Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) I'm new to the Serif ecosystem (I've only used Inkscape), so forgive me if I get some terminology wrong. This question is in regards to the manipulation of both preset shapes that you just draw in, as well as these curves that you convert the shapes into when you want to add nodes or move the existing nodes around. My problem is that I want the black rectangle to snap to the corner of the triangle. I've only been able to snap to 1 axis so far. edit: sorry, I had no idea you needed the actual file rather than a screenshot. Just got back to my computer and had to recreate the situation since I had deleted those shapes test (copy).afdesign Edited February 18, 2022 by CeresNT adding the proper file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 That is a weird file. What is it? A screenshot? There is no file extension.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 However, in Photo it just appears to be a screenshot of a document, not the actual .afdesign document that it would be more helpful to see.
