How to do oblique plots in AD (knife tool, pen tool...)?

[smazou]

Hello to all.

After the release of the new Affinity v02, there is a tutorial from the Team to explain how to use the knife tool (here :

 

Anyway I don't succeed to get oblique cuttings (with the ctrl command, as the tutorial tells). But I loose the cutting tool for the node tool with the Ctrl command. What am I doing wrong please?

@smazou: The author apparently created the video on a Mac. In Windows, the Ctrl key does not seem to work. It looks like it's a bug. Are you on Windows?

[smazou]

Yes I am

It's a bit more complicated in Windows: Press [Shift]+[Alt] and draw a line at any angle.
However, I am not sure if this is how the developers intended it.

Shift+Alt works. There is note about it in help file. Pressing left and right mouse buttons simultaneously do the same.
