Paul Uhlenbrock Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 I think i found something today I tried to make the first time pixel art in Affinity Designer and found out da my pixels not synced with the the grid or pixel grid. I was setting up the grid to 1 pixel but this wasn't helping much pixels stayed off the grid Quote
NotMyFault Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 Do you have artboards or pages in the document? This can lead to misalignment between ruler and actual pixel grid. please upload the file, and include the transform panel in the screenshot. move tool should be active during screen shot, and full application window.

GarryP Posted March 16, 2024 Posted March 16, 2024 The Bleed values of your document are not measured in integer pixels. If you set the Bleed values to integers then it should work. Old Bruce and Paul Uhlenbrock 1 1 Quote

NotMyFault Posted March 16, 2024 Posted March 16, 2024 Probably you have some bleed or margin active. When creating the document, use a preset from the „web“ categories and do not set any bleed or margin - those are often in physical units like pt or mm and lead to fractional pixel positions.
