    Great tutorial/tip. Short, to the point, clear. Thanks, it helped me a lot. IF YOU CAN'T FIND THE PERSPECTIV FREE DISTORT TOOL: - Select an Object - Click in the Toolbar on Free Transform Tool - A mini-toolbar of four tools should appear with the Perspective Free Distort Tool. If you don't see it, look UNDER the great toolbar, the mini-toolbar might be there. (Great work, Adobe! 👎)

    My main reason for trying to move away from Illustrator (10 years of professional use)is even after buying a high end Desktop with an i9 12900K that was the fastest purchasable CPU in the world at the time of purchase, illustrator will use only 1 cpu core and still lag on some projects, while affinity designer is buttery smooth on much more complicated projects, multithreading very well
