Mithferion Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Use the Constraints panel.

Staff MEB Posted October 30, 2017 Staff Share Posted October 30, 2017 Hi Resimovic, Welcome to Affinity Forums Can you please attach the file with the objects you are trying to resize (you can delete the rest) so we can see what type of objects are you working with and their layer structure? Thanks. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithferion Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 If this is what you want to do, as I said, you can use Constraints. If you don't find the panel, go to View > Studio > Constraints. Here is a little example: Select the children. You will see the white arrows. Click on them until they look like this. Now you can resize the container without changing the size of the inner object. Best regards!

Staff MEB Posted October 30, 2017 Staff Share Posted October 30, 2017 So i assume you wanted to keep the relative position of the child. If so then that's the way to go. Resimovic 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you got it sorted out.
