I Can Not Resize The Object I Created Without Changing Its Proportions

 

I try to resize the grid template I created by holding one finger on the screen and dragging the other.

 

However The little boxes shapes distort.

 

Can you tell me how to resize them without distorting the proportions please?

Can you share your .afdesign document rather than an exported PDF?

Sorry. by mistake I shared the pdf file.

 

Here is the affinity file;

When resizing your shape if you tap and hold with one finger somewhere else on the canvas you should notice the object now is being resized with its aspect ratio maintained.

Thanks

You don't have "box shapes" (e.g., rectangles). You have a grid of lines, and I don't think there are any actual objects to resize as you're trying to do.

Hi @Mainecoon364,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
What you are doing is correct but there's a small detail that's missing: select the grid (the two groups), place your right finger over one of the corners of the grid and start scaling (it does it non-proportionately) then while still scaling with the right finger, place a second finger somewhere else on screen to lock the ratio while you scale.
