Stylus Moving Canvas Around as if hand tool


Recommended Posts

I just purchased Affinity Photo for windows and cant wait to get started drawing.  I noticed as soon as I hover over the screen with the stylus it acts like the hand tool dragging the canvas all over the place.  Is there an area I need to configure settings to stop this from happing?

Hi,

AFAIK no, also the hand tool is always the default here when the app starts up.

☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan
☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

Hi Bri-Idea,

Welcome to the forums :)
As @v_kyr has mentioned, the hand tool is the default when opening the app or creating a new document and unfortunately this cannot be changed currently, you will need to manually change to your preferred method of drawing. It has however been previously requested as a feature, please see: 

 

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!
