Document Position - How to Lock to Center


Recommended Posts

Hello, I am just getting started with Affinity Designer and there is one thing that I wish I could tweak. Hoping there is a solution.

When I am working on a document on my Mac using my Magic Mouse... I end up with my doc flying off the screen.. ha ha.. well it moves around a lot. I guess the Apple mouse isn't the best to be using but it's what I have.

Is there a way to lock the document to the center of the screen?

 

Thanks for your help.

Easy, talk to it ...

But that only works if you speak with a fake Scottish accent. xD

 

Totally off topic: Back in the pre-OS X days when PPC Macs ran on the 'classic' Mac OS that supported a crude form of speech recognition, it required users to begin by saying an activation word so the system would try to interpret what followed as a voice command. I decided on "computer" as a tribute to Star Trek. I quickly learned that this did not work reliably unless I pronounced it using that same over-exaggerated fake Scottish accent!

Speaking of Jimmy, my favourite one (which someone actually said to me once) is "Hey, Jimmy! Whit's yer name?" xD

No need for apologies. I only live here: I don't actually speak like that! ;)
