Zoom Resizes Windows


Recommended Posts

Hi, 

New to Affinity from Photoshop. Tried searching this but not sure if I'm just not searching for right words. One of the first things thats driving me nuts, is resizing the windows/canvas/document space (not sure what Affinity calls it). I tend to like undocking each window so I can work with multiple windows and align them next to each other.

1. First problem: Just clicking and dragging to resize is incredibly slow. Feels like there is an uber ease in and out with the movement. Is there a setting causing this?

2. Second problem (related to first problem): PS has a preference option in Tools "Zoom Resizes Windows", so hitting Cntrl +/- will make the window bigger or smaller, but it resizes the window accordingly. is Affinity capable of this? I search prefs but didn't anything. 

Thank you.

Hi smibrand,

Welcome to the forums :)

Are you using Windows or Mac please? If Mac, are you using separated mode?

Could you possibly provide a screen recording of this issue?

Unfortunately we don't have such an option currently, I recommend making a Feature Request for this!

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!

Sorry for the late reply -

I'm using Windows version. I'm not sure what you mean by separated mode.

I attached a screen recording of the lagging problem. *I've never done a screen recording before so hopefully this works

As you can see, the window resizing has difficulty keeping up with the mouse, and mostly goes off on its own. The last few seconds I'm not even holding the mouse down anymore, but its still moving.

I should note I have this issue on both Photo AND Designer.

Can confirm that I see the same juddering, slow resize on Window 7.

Windows doesn't have Separate Mode - that is Mac only
