larsh Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Hi, what is the command: moving inside? If click on the pic is gone. I hoped to move it inside the frame, if the frame is smaller as the pic.

Staff MEB Posted January 28, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 28, 2019 Hi larsh, The command Arrange ▸ Move Inside / Outside moves the selected layer to inside (clipping it) or outside (unclipping it) the layer below. It's the same operation as dragging a layer over another layer in the Layers panel (not over its thumbnail but over the label area on the right). It can be used to move an image layer to inside a picture frame if that's what you meant. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsh Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hi, please think about this, I asked month ago: to move a pic inside the frame, if the frame is smaller as the pic.

Staff MEB Posted January 29, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hi larsh, I thought you were talking about the new Arrange commands (Move Inside/Outside). You can already move an image inside a picture frame no matter the size of the frame. I'm certainly missing something. Can you expand a little on what you mean please?

dcarvalho84 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 @MEB let me help, I think @larsh want to move a picture inside a picture frame, even if the picture is smaller than the frame. I think you have 2 options. 1 - Expand the picture frame in the layers panel and then select the picture itself and them move it as you normally do. The other one is, when you select the picture frame you have a bar that appear on the bottom with one little arrow in black thal let you move your picture and a zoom bar that let you choose the size of the picture. Is this what you looking for? Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 29, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 29, 2019 Thanks dcarvalho84. Yes, that's how you do it and it's been like that since Publisher's first Beta but I believe @larsh is aware of those methods and is requesting something else. Maybe I'm wrong...

larsh Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 2 hours ago, dcarvalho84 said: even if the picture is smaller than the frame No, I would like to move an image inside of the frame if the image is bigger (!) then the frame. So I can first see and then say in APu what I want to show (and must not go back to APh to change the pic). There may be a part of the page I will test the design: so or so or others... So the frame can be changed: smaller, longer... And the image should be move into the new form of the frame with its best part. Ich möchte den Rahmen beim Design ändern können, ohne erst eine neue Grösse des Bildes zu machen. Den Rahmen verändern, kleiner, länger. Und dann möchte ich das Bild entsprechend der Komposition neu im Rahmen positionieren (um am Ende vielleicht zur ersten Form zurückzukehren).

Staff MEB Posted January 29, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 29, 2019 Hi larsh, Do you mean you want to see the whole image while you move it inside the frame? Currently the parts that lay outside the picture frame are faded while you move it (see clip below). Sorry the questions but I'm still unsure about what you are trying to achieve. With the Move Tool you can also change the frame size or the image size independently from each other depending on what layer you have selected in the Layers panel - also show in the animated (loop) gif below.

larsh Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 WUNDERFULL!!! If one – as I allways do – not make the frame first and then include the pic, but moves the image using the: include image button direct to the page, the pic becomes a frame. Two movings and the pic is where it shall be (1. up to left edge of marvins, 2. right down to bring it to the right marvin). But in the layer-table is no special second layer shown with the image. Is there a way to do my way and then open the second layer?

fde101 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 If you have an image that is not inside of a frame and want to place it in a frame, create the frame and drag the image's layer in the Layers studio panel over the label (not the thumbnail) of the frame's layer. A line should appear below the frame's layer which should be somewhat indented from the left edge of the list but go nearly to the end on the right. Is that what you are looking for?

larsh Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 Ja, thanks, that works. Better was, to click in the pic double and to get an arrow then and a main frame in the layer field, as it is on the frame layer. But for me it is ok now.
