[Photo] Rotation, Flip and do-dats

[TheSnooze]

Hey guys!

I use Affinity Suite on Mac, BigSur

Rotation
I know it's been suggested before but I'd like to reiterate that a rotate-funtion in Photo (and maybe Designer) would be "hella dope" as they say. This is the single most important feature that Adobe's got that gives it one leg up in my opinion.

Flip
Also, another suggestion is to make the option Picture > Flip Horizontally/Vertically available as a button on the toolbar. Flipping your artwork is a valuable and venerable tool to keep it fresh in your eyes and make sure they don't get used to it and make you overlook things like proper perspective and anatomy.

Shop
If we could get an overview over what we bought in the shop and what we haven't and even a wishlist-function, I think that would make buying in the store a lot more attractive. It would certainly speak to the "completionist" in me.

Right-click > load file
In V1 we had the option to load previous files with just right-clicking on the app-icon in the toolbar. Since the major update that feature has been missing.

 

Thanks for all the hard work and making a great software suite! Looking forward for more!

There are plenty of ways to rotate things in all of the Affinity applications.
Would you like to give more details about what you want?

Flip Horizontally and Vertically, for layers, are already available on the Toolbar, as mentioned here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/196279-flip-button/
Flip Horizontally and Vertically, for the whole image, as Toolbar buttons, has already been requested by you in the same thread.

There’s no need to make multiple requests for the same thing, and it is actually discouraged.
It’s also better to put individual requests/suggestions in different threads to avoid various problems.
These things are made clear in the forum Guidelines.
