Fantastic! I knew it had to be easy! Thanks to both of you!

Thanks - I tried that before I posted my question. I probably should have included that. Sorry. It isn't working. I created a short video to show what I'm seeing.

I am using Designer Pro version 21.5.
I have a bitmap of a small tree. I'd like to drag it so that it is longer without it becoming wider, too. Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks.

Thanks a lot, both of you! I figured there had to be a simple way.

Is there an easy way to distribute, say 20 objects, around another object, sort of like distributing chairs around a table?
Thanks.

They should advise them to come to this thread. :)
So - i just bought v15 a couple of weeks ago. I now really wish I'd waited a month to get v16. My timing wasn't optimal.

Acorn - you nailed it! Thank you! It's all good now. :)

Scotty - those tools don't work for me. That's the problem!
Here's a short video demonstrating what I'm experiencing.

Boy - I'm not sure what you mean. I paste a bitmap onto a Designer Pro canvass and then click to select it. Then I try the flip/mirror tools with no effect. I can rotate the bitmap; I can resize and...
I must be missing something obvious. In an Designer Pro X10, I could click the Flip or Mirror buttons and my bitmap would flip (vertical) or mirror (horizontal). In Designer Pro X15, clicking these...
OK - I think I got it. Thanks you guys. Now I can get some things done!

Sadly, I'm still not getting it, and feeling pretty stupid.
Pressing or holding down Alt key doesn't do anything for me. All I can do is resize both height and width or I can crop. That's it....
Not that it's a big deal, but on my machine, it's the Shift key, not the Alt key that enables me to do what I want. I have no idea what's making it different from your experience. But I'm good. :)

OK - I figured it out. With Smart Transform turned off, there are handles within the frame handles, associated with the bitmap itself. When I hold down Shift (not Alt), I can resize width or height...
Holding down Alt doesn't change the behavior. I either resize both height and width together, or I end up cropping the image.
And I'm assuming that disabling the Smart Transform is with the Lock...
I just purchased DP X (15.1) and it is behaving differently from the earlier version. I'm hoping what I was able to do in the older version I can do in DP X.
Simple example. I have a coin - say a...
Right - I forgot that... =D>
Thanks!

I'm giving Designer Pro X365 a trial to see if I want to upgrade.
Live Effects appears to be missing, or rather, I can't find
it. I don't mean the icon on the toolbar. I mean that when
I click...
OK - I'll accept that I'm just not communicating my idea very well. I currently make things work by working with folders named things like Client1/ProjectA/Active, Client1/ProjectA/Archive,...
That was a very good description - thanks. I would add that even in a project with tons of files, only a few would be typically active at any given time. The UE project manager remembers the state of...
Hi gwpriester,
I appreciate your response. I've created a short video to show you
using Ultra Edit - the text program I mentioned above.

Thank you, angelize - I will look into Blender. And I truly appreciate you advising on the limits of Designer Pro, so I can let it go. I love the program for what it can do and know it can't be...
Yep - this is a suggestion box area, yes? So it's up to the user community to say they like it; it's up to Xara to determine if it's worthwhile or not; and if they think it is worthwhile, it's up to...
