Adding warp to embedded documents gives undesired result

[Martin_H]

Hello,

Using Designer 2.03
Windows 10
Tried with hardware acceleration bot on and off

Steps to reproduce:

Start a new document
From stock panel, search Pixabay for "camo" and tick "Vector"
Place the first result in the document
Select the document and apply a warp group (any will do, but eg quad)
Move the nodes around and instead of warping, I end up with lots of white space.

I've also tried embedding other documents created with Designer 2 and get the same results.  

Attached is a screenshot of the results I'm getting.

Cheers,

Martin.

Hello, if your document is embedded, the transformation (warp) must be applied in the window of the embedded object. (Double click on the layer to open the window).

You can also, if you prefer, copy the embedded object and paste it into your main window to apply the warp effect directly.

Here is a video if it's easier (my English is limited 😅)

Thanks for the suggestions Marc, they helped a lot. I still thinks it's odd that you can't apply the warps directly to the embedded document, though.
