Deformation Grid not working

[V_rob]

Hello There !

The deformation grid in Designer v.2.1.1 on mac os 12.6.8

is not working anymore (see video). It used to work well.

FYI, I also tried to convert in curv or rasterize the layer, does not work...

Thanks for your help

Hi @V_rob,

It looks like you're using the vector warp functions on a raster image layer which will not achieved the desired warping of the pixel content since it's intended for vector objects. Instead, I would recommend using the Mesh Warp live filter found in the Pixel persona by going to Layer > New Live Filter Layer > Mesh Warp.

Thanks @NathanC I feel stupid ! I thought I've already used that tool for raster image layer but apparently not !

So sorry to have bothered you.

Maybe I can delete this topic ?

Hi @V_rob,

It's no problem at all, it would be good to leave the thread unhidden as if other users find themselves with the same problem they can find out how to resolve it. 🙂
