  1. I managed to register my license from Mac App Store. Here's a funny thing: Affinity Designer 2 is both telling me that if I want I can deactivate my license AND inviting me to press the "BUY NOW" button to purchase a license (again?) I'm sorry Serif Affinity Team: you have developed a great suite of applications, but IMHO the license registration process is not yet refined as the rest of your software.
  2. This is it. It is written in Italian. It's not exactly 100% the same pop-up window, because I feel I didn't even need to do a trial (I just wanted to buy a license because your software have saved my arse so many times I could trust blindly your work) so I just bought a license. I bough my universal license from the second big tab by clicking on the button, and then the Apple App Store asked me if I was sure to spend 119,99€ on the suite. I clicked "Okay" and Apple confirmed my purchase. I then expected Affinity Designer 2 to unlock automatically but it did not happen. I got back on this very same popup that was asking me to purchase a license or to restore it. The last option on the bottom of the window is "Ripristina Acquisti" (Restore purchase) but it does nothing when I click it. It's not even giving me an error saying that there is no existing license to restore..
  3. Hello there, I just bought the entire suite for 119,99€ on the Mac App Store on trust. My purchase has been confirmed by Apple. When I try to click "restore my purchase" on the trial window on Affinity Designer 2, it does nothing. Same situation with Affinity Publisher 2. Obviously, if I try to click on "Already purchased" button, it asks me for a Serif ID and for a password, but it won't recognize my Apple ID. I have a MacBook Air with Monterey OS 12.6.1 Could you help me please
  4. Thank you very much. The Sun was the first example that came in my mind yesterday, but sometimes I need to make some simple animations and it's handy to have the objects I want to move already placed on their starting position on the affinity file and on the PSD.
  5. Hello, I'm actually using Affinity Designer 1.5 Beta 7 and I'm trying to export some draws in PSD format but I'm having problems when some objects are placed outside of the canvas I'm actually drawing on. I'm not very good at explaining things in words, so I've prepared this short slideshow to explain my problem 1. I make a draw of a happy, smiling sun with Affinity Designer 2. I move the sun to the bottom of the canvas until only half of the image is visible 3. I export the draw as a PSD file. The only pertinent option that I can see is "Area: Whole document", that is actually greyed out and not editable. 4. I launch Photoshop and open the exported PSD file of the sun, when I try to move the layer that contains the sun I can only see half of it (the visible part on AD) My question is: is there a way to export *everything* in their original form in a PSD file, even the objects that are actually only partially visible on the canvas ? Can I export this image in a PSD file and be able to move the image of the sun, intact, wherever I want ? Thank you and best regards
  6. Thank you very much for the reply. I'm going to ask it in the "feature request" section of this forum, thanks again.
  7. Actually if I want to join two selected curves in AD I have to press the "A" key and then I have to move the mouse over a (very) tiny icon in the upper center of the user interface to join the curves. It's not the fastest way to do this thing, at least for how I'm used to do things IMHO. If I could choose, I'd rather prefer to use a keyboard shortcut to join two or more curves... for example when I was using "iDraw" I used to just select the curves and press CMD + J to join them... and... presto! all the selected curves were joined! :-) it was really handy and it saved me a lot of time. Learning to use shortcuts takes some time initally but in the end saves a lot of time spent otherwise in repetitive tasks. And then, if it's not too much of a hassle, please consider to add a customizable shortcut for joining curves please. Thank you very much for reading this message and best regards
  8. It would be very handy for me if I could use a shortcut to join two curves into one... possibly cmd+J... Does it exists or do you know if it is possible to assign it ? Thank you and best regards
  9. +1 I'd really like to be able to do what I used to do on Illustrator: 1) Press the "v" key 2) Select one or more vector objects of which I want to change color 3) Press the "i" key 4) The mouse pointer turns into an eyedropper 5) Move the mouse pointer over an object that has the color I want to pick up 6) Click with the left-mouse button 7) See the selected objects changing their filling color to the same color (or gradient) I just picked up with the eyedropper (or their border color if this is selected in the palette window)
  10. Thank you very much. Yes, if I switch to a US Keyboard as you mentioned I can use the shortcuts. If I switch back to the italian keyboard I can't use them anymore. I guess this mean I'll have to switch back and forth the US and the Italian keyboards until Serif will allow to customize the shortcut keys...
  11. Hello, I'm actually using Affinity Designer Beta 1.1.2.23074 and I have a huge problem: apparently any shortcut that I have tried that involve the use of the square brackets ("[", "]") doesn't work for me. I cannot resize a stroke and I cannot move a selection to front or to the back. I can however select from the the dropdown menu the corresponding items and do these operations, but it's at least 10 times slower than by using the proper shortcut and for this reason very annoying. On the official 1.1.2 I can move objects between layers but I can't manage to change the brush size. Could this be caused because I'm using a MacBook Pro with an Italian keyboard? I don't have on my keyboard two keys for the square brackets, instead I have two different keys ("è" and "+"), and in order to write brackets I have to press "command" + "è" and "command" + "+". In the past I had the same problem with Photoshop since I was unable to move between layers because Adobe used the same keys and like Affinity Designer, that particular shortcut wasn't customizable. This is a GIF with the layout of the keys on my keyboard: http://support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECARE_ALLGEOS/HT2841/Italian.gif Could you help me, this is really a showstopper for me.
  12. +1 For the vector eraser. And if you still have some spare time after implementing it, I think that a "simplify path" option would be also nice :-) Thank you
