Fit Canvas - Crop Canvas to fit objects

[Ricardo Zea]

Hello,

 

In Fireworks there's an option called Fit Canvas which crops the canvas to fit the elements on it.

 

Is there an automated way to do the same thing in Affinity Designer? Or is this something that can only be done manually?

 

Thanks.

Hi ricardozea,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

There isn't a similar function in Designer yet.

You may to try select and copy all objects (CTRL + C) then go to menu File ▸ New From Clipboard  (or press CTRL+ ALT+ SHIFT+N).

I´m moving this thread to the Feature Requests section.

Ok, that works for now.

 

Thanks MEB.

i am missing this feature as well. makes it possible to resize (make them smaller) images quickly and save them in the smaller size. used this feature very often in fireworks.

Sign me in on that (and I also requested/suggested this feature already). Fireworks has “fit canvas” and “trim canvas”. Super useful; I’m using these very often.

I have to agree this is a time saving feature when I'm doing web graphics in Fireworks. I often have different versions of the same object on the same larger than needed canvas to compare & see which is better. Then I delete the ones I don't want, hit "Fit To Canvas" & presto ready to export. Super fast & efficient would love this feature in AD but even AP too
