Gene R Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Affinity Photo seems to use the original image's aspect ratio, no matter what you set the grid to be. See attached pictures for an example. Suppose I want to edit a car's license plate, I set up a perspective projection so as to see the plate properly, and it gets stretched to the original image's aspect ratio. Since there's no visible way to get the grid to match the source aspect ratio, the projection will always be distorted. mesbahworld 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted January 30, 2017 Staff Share Posted January 30, 2017 Hi Gene R,This is technically By Design, however I don't see why it can't be an improvement to the current Live Perspective tools. So I've moved your post over to Feature Requests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 30, 2017 Staff Share Posted January 30, 2017 Hi Gene R, I'm not sure what are you trying to do but it's already possible to keep the plate ratio. See attached clip. Is this what you are trying to do? Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene R Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Hi MEB. That seems to be a way to achieve the results I need, provided that it's possible to adjust the perspective back to the way it originally was. The idea was to make the area to be edited flat and even, to, say, put some text on it without having to adjust for perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
