I just downloaded Affinity Photo for iPad and am wondering if there is a feature to straighten up converging vertical lines that show when photographing tall buildings with a wide angle lens. I know, one answer is shoot from farther away and then crop it in in post. But there are times when that’s not possible. I looked through the features in Affinity for iPad and I can’t find anything to fix converging vertical line. I may just be missing it, but I thought I might pick the collective minds here of those who have that program. Thanks in advance.

I don't use an iPad, but the Windows Infinity Photo has what is called the Perspective tool. It lays out a grid over your image and you can click and drag any part of the image. Grab the upper or lower part of the grid and drag to straighten. You can warp any part of the image. There is also a WARP tool. I've never used that tool.

Hope that helps. Also, I suggest you view the videos that Serif has put out for the PERSPECTIVE tool.

In the Photo Persona it is just above the magnifier in the tool panel (bottom of tool bar). The Perspective Tool.

You are referencing Affinity Photo for iPad, right? I think it’ll take awhile to get used to it, the different terms and tools. There are some good Affinity video tutorials available. Thanks for the tip.

The 'WARP' tool allows one to 'Drag' the sides of the image, not just the corners.

Look for the perspective tool that works very well.
Excellent tutorials in You Tube.

I wonder if some of these tools aren’t available in the iOs version of Affinity. I couldn’t find a “warp” too in the iPad version. Perhaps I’ll check out some tutorial when I have a free moment.

Lozano is correct. Go to YouTube and search for “Affinity Photo tutorials perspective Tool” several videos may pop up.
