Image tool request



  • I would like to see an image tool, where you can place an image inside of vectorstyler that is right away in a sort of image frame like indesign or publisher. So you can resize the frame with the image, but also can resize the image inside the frame. I would like to see, the same sort of scale handles that are used in the pattern tool. (I thought Xara uses this method to rescale the image, the rescale slide in AF Publisher works also. But the resize method in Indesign was a bit of a trouble, although that could have changed over the years)



  • @FastVector The fourth mode of the Transform tool lets you select, move and
    also scale bitmaps inside their container:

  • Wow! Nice. One question, is it normal that when scaling the image in Vectorstyler it also is moving? The image is not been scaled from the center or one of the corners of the image. The scaling in a cliping mask seems to work normal compared to this.

  • @FastVector Indeed, not how it's supposed to work — it's a regression.



  • Just downloaded a trail of Xara, to see how it is done there on the moment.
