Hello everyone,

I'm new in affinity photo and I try to find on  Youtube tutorials or here on the forum how to perspective crop an object, keeping the aspect ratio of that object.

I have to crop some paintings from photo and if I use the perspective crop tool it lengthens my result. I do something wrong or this future is not available in Affinity yet?

I attach 2 examples. Normal one is cropped in Photoshop, second in Affinity.

I really like Affinity Photo but there are some future missing, or I didn't discover it yet.

By "perspective crop tool" do you mean the Crop Tool or the Perspective Tool?

 

If I understand what you want to do correctly, you can use the Crop Tool set to the Original Ratio mode to preserve the aspect ratio..

Hi Liviu,

Welcome to the forums :)
Unfortunately Affinity Photo does not have a Perspective Crop tool, but it is a feature that has been requested here: 

 

Please Note: I am now out of the office until Tuesday 2nd April on annual leave.

Hi Liviu,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

The Perspective Tool filter isn't able to geometrically correct/compensate the perspective distortion caused by taking a photograph from an angle so it's unable to restore its original ratio (giving an arbitrary result as you saw).

 

@firstdefense

The bottom one was cropped in Photoshop.
