maxmax Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Hello! I use Affinity Designer (1.7.1.404, german) on my MS Surface Book with performance base and MS Dial. If I choose the move tool (V), I can rotate the paper with the Dial. If a choose a drawing tool, I can only change the volume with the Dial.That doesn't make any sense. E.g. I want to rotate the canvas while using pen, ... What goes wrong? Regards romochka 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Hi maxmax, Thanks for your feedback. This is, AFAIK, the intended design choice of the Surface Dial - however I can certainly see why this is a feature that you would want. I'll move this thread to Feature Requests and feedback for our devs to see and consider! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romochka Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Hi there is a workaround: in AD, assign hotkeys to View - Rotate Right, View - Rotate Left and Reset Rotation; then in Windows system settings (Wheel) create a new tool for the AD app with these hotkeys. Rotation is not that smooth as with the V tool, the step is about 15 degrees, but seems acceptable for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
