How to scale a layer from the center (anchor point?) AP 1.6.9.81


Recommended Posts

Hi, many times i want to resize a layer from the center, using the apple pencil (not the Transform Tools settings). But Affinity always uses the opposite end and anchor point (right?).

Anyway to change this? 

As you can see on the video below, even if i change the anchor point from the Photo > Transform Studio from the side to the center, it doesn't resize it from the center when i'm using the Pencil/Finger.

Using version: AP iOS version 1.6.9.81 on the iPad Pro

How do you do this on the desktop version?

Look in the status bar along the bottom of the window while holding the mouse pointer over a handle using the Move tool - there is a keyboard modifier that you hold down to get this behavior.

Hold two fingers on the canvas while resizing.

Thank you fde101 for providing the answer pertaining to how to enable the transform origin for the iPad, I have seen it in one of my

online affinity classes but could not remember how, and their help info on the iPad is not very informative.
