It seems that Canva has cash. As long as the Affinity Suite survives using the current pricing model, this could be a win-win. Canva gets access to loads of sorely-needed features and Affinity has more resources to evolve our favorite products.

Seriously? You claim you have 'supported' these programs since the beginning. What have you paid them since that beginning, years ago? Nothing. It seems you think 'using' and 'supporting' mean the same thing. Affinity, on the other hand, has supported you with many free and significant updates. Can't you understand that supporting the Affinity products includes giving them a few bucks every few years so they can continue improving these great programs? If you don't want the new features, then pay nothing and keep using version 1.x. Which, by the way, isn't possible with subscriptions. Perhaps you don't understand how subscriptions work?

+1. Stable-diffusion is apparently available in Blender and Kitra, and I've seen mention of a PS plug-in that's available as well. I've been playing with Automatic1111's Gradio WebUI (https://github.com/sd-webui/stable-diffusion-webui), and there are others as well. Integrating something like this in AP/AD would be quite useful, especially if we could point to a stable-diffusion that's already installed. Pointing to a local installation would also allow us to migrate to a different fork as things evolve. It seems this approach would save a lot of work for Serif as others would be maintaining the UI, but it also may be confusing for new SD users.

I've noticed that as well. I used to have an editor that would let me extract fields and order them in columns, but that was in a previous life.

No, just a regular print to my printer, which is on my LAN if that helps.

I'm not sure if this is the same on Macs, but on Windows when you save your shortcuts to a file, the .afshort file is a zipped archive containing the XML files.

Thank you! Just what I was looking for.

I've changed a few of my shortcuts and added many others to accommodate using a MIDI controller with Affinity products. Is there any way to list all of my shortcut keys in one place? Failing that, is there a way to convert the stored settings files to something readable so I can extract them myself? It would be great if the configurations were saved/savable in JSON or XML format... Scrolling through all of the various pages to remind myself of my assignments is painful!

Given that I can't remember why I disabled Snapping Candidates, I'm going to give them a try again. I'll keep in mind that the candidates are available based on selection history.

Thanks for more insight on this.

Agreed. But having to remove objects from a group to snap guides to them is unexpected and should be unnecessary.

I have Show Snapping Candidates disabled because something else - I don't remember what - was working improperly/unexpectedly with it enabled. As far as the rotated circles I have no idea. I found the original template file on the 'Net long ago, probably as an SVG.

Thank you!

I replied to @JimmyJack above that I couldn't get snapping to work using the Node tool. I then turned on 'Align to nodes of selected curves' and with the Controls group selected I was able to snap properly. Snapping did not work with either the Artboard or Encoders group selected. That seems to be the key, but I believe I should be able to snap to grouped objects using the Move tool.

I'm unable to get it to work on any of the circles myself. Perhaps you have steadier hands than me? 🙂 Following your suggestion, using the Node tool, I've tried with the Controls group selected, the Encoders group selected and the Artboard selected. No joy!
