not at all - plenty of developers add previous versions as "beta" branches, it's really simple to do. Euro Truck Simulator 2 is one example, you can go about 30 versions back (but there is no limit to how many a developer can have) https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/application/branches

yes, that's a great suggestion, actually! i would absolutely buy the entire suite again on steam, it would be worth it for the automatic updates alone! even adobe sell their Substance suite on steam, so i see no reason why Affinity couldn't do that as well

awful, terrible news sigh, guess i have to keep looking ...

agreed! i pretty much only need good stabilisation, and timelapse recording, and (for me) Photo/Designer would be perfect

i would really love to have a stabiliser mode in Photo/Designer that works the same way the procreate one does. Unfortunately, it’s really difficult to describe or even show in a video, it has to be experienced first hand, but here’s the best one i could find that kinda/sorta shows what i mean:

same here! it's extremely annoying and disappointing

of course but i only have a "lowly" Huion screen tablet, so no touch for me, unfortunately that's why it would be nice to be able to do it without a touch screen as well

yes, but this only applies to Designer, since there are no artboards in Photo at all (and i mainly use Photo for drawing, haha) but yes, there should definitely be a way to rotate the canvas/artboards more interactively

ah, that would explain that in that case - it should be better explained, because it's absolutely not intuitive and i would never in a million years have thought that's the setting that would switch the eraser to the same brush

yes, i know it can be done, but it's still not ideal (to say the least), and not very interactive either yes, that sounds like a good idea to me just as long as there's some spring-loaded tool that can make this work (with or without a modifier key, doesn't really matter)

i absolutely second this, it's essential for tablet users

oh yes, that's it! i had it set to "smart sharing" (whatever that does), but changing it to all tools does exactly what i need, thank you so much!

oh wow, there already is one, oops, apologies

i know it's already possible to rotate the canvas with the View menu (or with mouse wheel), but for tablet users neither option is all that great, so i would like to request an additional "rotate canvas" tool which could be used to arbitrarily rotate the canvas (with an option to rotate around the cursor position), and which would also enable us to use in a spring-loaded manner (like the brush, or eraser tools right now).

i know it's already possible to designate any created brush as an eraser, but it still necessitates creating a completely separate brush to achieve this, and it can lead to a pretty big mess when someone uses lots of different brushes. So it would be nice to have an additional checkbox in the brush tool toolbar (or just application settings) that would permanently (until unchecked) use the same brush settings for the eraser tool since basically that's what i want to do 99% of the time anyway.
