Detaman83 Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 Hey Guys! Im just getting into Affinity Photo and editing in general and have a couple of questions: 1- is there a quick way to rotate a brush head in Affinity photo? - I know you can dbl click the brush type and drag the rotation slider but wondered if there is a short cut? 2- Does anyone know if the Social Kit Pro plug-in works with Affinity photo? Many thanks! Quote
Staff MEB Posted July 17, 2017 Staff Posted July 17, 2017 Hi Detaman83, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) 1- No, there's no shortcut to rotate the brush head in Photo. 2- No, it doesn't work in Affinity Photo as it relies on Photoshop panels to expose its functionality (which we don't support).

Not sure if we are talking about the same thing but with the set up I have I use the arrow keys to rotate the brush head. Works before and during painting strokes.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
Staff MEB Posted July 23, 2019 Staff Posted July 23, 2019 Hi Old Bruce, That post/reply is from 2017. There was quite/changes improvements since then. In the current version you can indeed rotate the brush with the arrow keys. @shankerrhce, Welcome to Affinity Forums Tim Kyarie and mykee 1 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software
devendra Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Hello, here is a question from the present 😄 it's great that rotation is possible via arrow keys. Unfortunately it doesn't work with my composite brush. It's a brush I bought and it has a basic shape as well as a texture, both are masked together. If I use the arrow keys only the background mask of my brush rotates but the basic texture that shapes the brush remains the same. Is there a trick as how I could rotate the whole brush altogether? I also rotated the document view but the brush position remains the same. Is there a possibility to rotate the view together with the brush so they are always linked? Thank you in advance! Quote
DaveMustang Posted July 10, 2024 Posted July 10, 2024 Use the arrow keys. Left arrow key rotates counter clockwise and right arrow key rotates clockwise. Quote
