Affinity Photo 2 X; Y and B: H: Copy to other layer

[WuuulF]

Hello everyone, I have searched a lot on google but could not find an answer to my simple question. Therefore, short and sweet based on the screenshot. How can I simply copy these values to another layer?

Best regards, Sascha

Hi @WuuulF,
Welcome to the Affinity Forums!

The fastest would be in two steps: Use the Alignment options for X/Y and drag-resize with snapping for the object size (B/H).

Hey, thanks for your quick reply. Unfortunately this is actually not the fastest method as I often work with 30+ layers which all have different sizes and placements. I'm looking for a method to bring them all to the same width and the same coordinates with copy paste.

It might be useful to be able to copy and then paste all the values at once.

I agree with you exactly. It would save me a lot of time if there was a way to transfer this data to other levels.

The reply referred to your initial question for "another layer". Unfortunately there is no option to resize multiple layers of different sizes to a specific pair of W/H (B/H) values. This was requested for V1 years ago and possibly needs a new request for V2 in the Feedback Forum.

Unfortunately, in Affinity the mentioned method via Align + Snap Dragging still seems to be the fastest, even if it requires to edit multiple layers separately.
