Liviu Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 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.

R C-R Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 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..

Staff Dan C Posted March 21, 2018 Staff Share Posted March 21, 2018 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: Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!

Staff MEB Posted March 21, 2018 Staff Share Posted March 21, 2018 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.

Liviu Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 Thank you for your answer. Yes, the first one is cropped with AP and the bottom one is cropped with Photoshop. I'll have to wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
