kat Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Any way to make a AP 2 keyboard shortcut for wacom touch ring? My touch ring rather than using a shortcut has "Rotate" which doesn't work. In AP I tried keyboard shortcut but couldn't set anything not used by something else. 90 degrees clockwise or counter clockwise and reset rotation are the only options?

markw Posted August 19, 2024 Posted August 19, 2024 That’s very strange… Both Rotate and Zoom Touch Ring defaults work for me on my ageing Intuos4. Just in case, I’ve just had a look in AP2’s Preferences and can’t see any obvious settings in there that might override or prevent the Touch Ring from Rotating the Canvas. It should be working for you? Has it worked in the past with AP2 or is this something that has recently happened? Dose the Touch Ring ‘Rotate’ work in the other Affinity apps? kat 1 Quote macOS 12.7.6 | 15" Macbook Pro, 2017 | 4 Core i7 3.1GHz CPU | Radeon Pro 555 2GB GPU + Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 1.536GB | 16GB RAM | Wacom Intuos4 M
kat Posted August 19, 2024 Author Posted August 19, 2024 Rotate works in AD if I an using a vector stroke. But still can't get it to work in AP with a brush. Quote Affinity Suite v2.6.3, Mac Mini M2 Pro 2023, Sonoma, OS 14.1.1 https://www.funkyhistory.com
markw Posted August 19, 2024 Posted August 19, 2024 OK, so I’ve done a little more digging and found that if I deselect; Enable canvas rotation with trackpad, in AP’s Preferences > Tools, I too can no longer rotate the canvas using the Wacom's Touch Wheel! Why that option needs to be selected for the Touch Wheel Rotation to work I don’t know? Zoom function still works with the Wheel regardless of any of AP’s Prefs. Try selecting; Enable canvas rotation with trackpad in AP's Prefs. Dose that get it working for you? kat 1 Quote macOS 12.7.6 | 15" Macbook Pro, 2017 | 4 Core i7 3.1GHz CPU | Radeon Pro 555 2GB GPU + Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 1.536GB | 16GB RAM | Wacom Intuos4 M
kat Posted August 19, 2024 Author Posted August 19, 2024 @markw "Enable canvas rotation with trackpad, in AP’s Preferences > Tools" Works!!! Wish there was also a way to Reset Rotation on Touch Ring instead of setting an Express key to Reset Rotation shortcut key, Command Shift Control R Quote Affinity Suite v2.6.3, Mac Mini M2 Pro 2023, Sonoma, OS 14.1.1 https://www.funkyhistory.com
markw Posted August 20, 2024 Posted August 20, 2024 Glad to hear you have it working now!😎 I’ve found setting an 'On-Screen' button to Reset Rotation is fast and works well. Here are a couple of other things I’ve set for the Affinity apps. kat 1 Quote macOS 12.7.6 | 15" Macbook Pro, 2017 | 4 Core i7 3.1GHz CPU | Radeon Pro 555 2GB GPU + Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 1.536GB | 16GB RAM | Wacom Intuos4 M
