hgr Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi I have a logo which I have designed in Xara, and I have imported it as a pdf into Affinity Designer, because I need to change the logo. I have changed the logo and I have used an outline shadow fx as a drop shadow. Now I try to resize the logo to exact dimensions, because I need to export it as a png in different sizes. But the resize does not take the shadow fx into consideration. When I resize the logo to 165 x 95 and then go to the export persona to create a slize, the slize becomes much larger because the resize does not take the fx drop shadow into consideration. Is there a fast way you can resize to exact pixel dimensions when you use a fx, like the outer shadow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 2, 2015 Staff Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi hgr, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) On the Layer Effects dialog check the Scale with Object box at the bottom.

hgr Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 It does not work for me. The object is exactly 165x95 pixels in the draw persona. There is a 2pixels drop shadow at an 315 degree angle. (bottom and right side) When I create the slice in export persona it expands the size of the slize to 168x98 which is the size of the object plus the drop shadow. So the way I see it is that the drop shadow is not included on the object size in the draw persona but it is included on the export persona. The only way I have been able to hit my target size is by trial and error. Switching back and forth between the export and draw persona. There must be a better way to hit a target image size than trial and error. I can't resize the object in the export persona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
