pixiegirl Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Ok I have a photo. I open it in Affinity. I put some text on the top center of the photo. All good. Now I want to crop the entire thing smaller. I can't. I've googled and not one of the menu items has a crop in it. I've merged it down. Still can't find a way to crop. I thought I read on one of the Google items that I had to go to image. I don't have image in any of the menu items that I can see. Granted I'm only 2 days into this. I'm a long time Photoshop user and my copy of Photoshop won't work in High Sierra. I've watched a ton of videos and I can't seem to find one that just has these basics on it. Thank you for any help.

It's so hard when you are brand new. I thought I'd be able to do more in Affinity after having used Photoshop for so long. I'm going to spend the weekend watching more videos. Thank you very much!

v_kyr Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Take a look over the Official Affinity Photo (Desktop) Video Tutorials here, you can also download most of these for offline viewing. - Further if you do a Google search after specific AP themes, there are also a bunch of third party tutorial videos available on YouTube too!

saxonking Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Have you tried 'Flattening, the image before you crop it? Until you do that AP may see it as two images and only work on the main one. Menu, Document, Flatten. Good luck, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
