Till-O-Mat Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Hi, first of all I am impressed by the great Software at that Price - thanks! I tried to rotate some path points and hoped that the brilliant concept of Adobe Illustrator was implemented in your Software where you can rotate and mirror just by using modifying keys like strg, alt and shift. Also it was very easy to Position the Center of Rotation/mirroring using the alt-key. Ok your Approach is different, but it would be great if you could have a look at it. However your Approach seems to be Buggy: I can rotate the path Point by using the slider in the tranformation Panel nor entering the Rotation angle, because it always falls back to 0° whenever I carry on with other objects. Also I cannot define the Center of rotation. I Appreciate any Feedback on this. Best regards, P.S. I am using Affinity Designer 1.6.4.104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R C-R Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Affinity does allow rotation of selected nodes (path points) but the implementation is limited to rotation around one of the 9 Transform panel anchors that defines the top, left, center, & so on of the selected group of nodes. To do this, select the nodes with the Node Tool, & in the Transform panel, click on one of the anchors on the left & use the "R:" field to rotate them. It is not very useful for most purposes.
