A parallelogram may be made by drawing a rectangle and then using the Transform Pane to shear it. Or you may use the little arrows which appear when you hover the mouse cursor near the side handles.

But to just lean/bend... does not make a square to a parallleogram (in a square = all angles are 90°, in a parellogramm just the A and C has the same angle and the B and D has the same the angle). So how can i get this with a standard square in PHOTO???? I know i can create something like that with the pen-tool and than bend and stretch the object, but it isnt a "shape", and its difficult to change the AC/BD-angles later....

A parallelogram is any quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel, so a square (or any rectangle) is simply a special kind of parallelogram. stokerg and Polygonius 2 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Round-cornered rectangles are still four-sided (i.e. quadrilateral). They just happen to have rounded corners!
