SteveR_UK Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 Hi, I'm able to power duplicate a shape/image across the screen (x-axis), I'm even able to move & scale across the screen as well. However if I add a rotate action with the move action (x axis only), the Y axis of the shape effected when duplicated. (the Image duplicates down the screen as well forming a circular pattern. I have made sure my image/shape has its transform origin set to the centre. How would l power duplicate a shape rotating (centre of shape) while moving across the x axis only? Must be doing something silly Thanks Quote Affinity Photo Version 2, Affinity Designer Version 2 on PC and iPad Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor i7-7700K@4.20GHz, 32GB Ram, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080Ti

SteveR_UK Posted December 1, 2022 Author Posted December 1, 2022 Original message is now hidden. I assume its not a bug as it has behaves the same in V1 . It seem a easy task to achieve but I cannot figure out why it's behaving like this or what I'm doing wrong walt.farrell 1 Quote Affinity Photo Version 2, Affinity Designer Version 2 on PC and iPad Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor i7-7700K@4.20GHz, 32GB Ram, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080Ti

Apparently this is by design. I can think of a few times I would want this weird spiral behaviour but for the most part I would want the rotated and or scaled things to be in a straight line.

thomaso Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 There are quite a few threads about Power Duplicate and possibly undesirable behaviour, e.g. its transformation origin or its percentage (not absolute) incremental change: Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1
SteveR_UK Posted December 1, 2022 Author Posted December 1, 2022 I wonder what the thinking is behind this behaviour? To me its obvious that you would want it to rotate the shape itself by default. Is this not what the transform origin point is used use for ? If you wanted it to behave as it does at this time, its more logical that you would move the transforms origin point to the desired location on the screen Quote Affinity Photo Version 2, Affinity Designer Version 2 on PC and iPad Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor i7-7700K@4.20GHz, 32GB Ram, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080Ti
