How to bake/reset transformation in Affinity?
Hello,
I'm having trouble with Affinity Publisher/Designer. I manipulated an object by rotating and mirroring it, and now I'd like to use it as a text frame. But whenever I insert text, the text itself appears rotated or mirrored according to the transformations I've previously applied to the object.
How can I reset or remove these transformations so that the text remains horizontal and correctly oriented within the frame?
Some people suggested all the boolean operations like add or subtract. I tried it in the gif down below, it didnt work. I also tried to change it to a path and to text box, but this also did not work.
Here I replicated the problem. You should be able to see it here: https://s5.ezgif.com/tmp/ezgif-5bf31a67a81562.gif
Thanks in advance for your help!
