...and what is planned aside from the Light UI?
thanks, cheers !
Andy, anything? :D :wub: :blink:

This is great Ben.
I actually had it happen that I still had to many options enabled, opened a complex document and got stuck.
So this is a good feature to prevent this, thanks!
I personally always have all options enabled as I usually don't do complex things hehe but not an ideal workflow of course.

With great power comes great responsibility, but I remember you talked about implementing a timeout function that exits the snapping calculation asa they become to excessive.
Is this still on the plate? Seemed very reasonable to me.

Thanks, MBd. Have you done one like this for Designer as well? That's the one that I'm a beginner in.
well I'm honestly not that much of a Designer.....
SoftProof, ColorProfiles, Performance, ColorSpaces, Export....well...most of the things are actually the same in AD.
The tools in Designer are generally a bit easier I'd say, (crop and clip is not easy but is the same in AD and AP)
there are certain design workflows like nesting and using shapes that I may know to some extend but there are for sure much better tutorials about them out there form guys like frankentoon or Paolo. sorry
anyway I think I'll put [AP + AD] in the title because I realize that most things mentioned in here are shared among both
cheers :)
-
@madame @rmar THANK YOU both very much appreciated!
I'm also already taking notes about "how to not use AP - improve workflow" and hope I can share it soon :)
cheers :D
-
there is also cmd + f in AP to repeat the last used filter :)
-
GIMP generally excludes more metadata than AP, maybe got to Export > "more" and uncheck the "metadata" checkbox so that AP removes these things, maybe Facebook and wp are happier with this.
I would put the image into imageoptim before uploading anyway so maybe try this out as well
sorry for no clear answer :D

\When I import pics from affinity into Gimp I get this message:
Thanks so much for your help.
Looking forward to receive you next message.
best
Thomas
this indicates that the exported file is in the wrong color space, Apple RGB instead of sRGB
however, looking at the files, all files are actually sRGB, checked with Affinity and exiftool so I'm a bit puzzled.
hope we can get this resolved somehow though
-
great effort!
I'd suggest to add links to the appropriate official video tutorials, this really makes use of the digital format you are in anyway
https://vimeo.com/channels/affinitydesigner (link embedded does not work)\example video:
cheers
I made an attempt to do a similar thing for Affinity Photo //for more tips, KLICK << -
well the thing is, affinity designer does not manage the selection + rotation well
but it does manage it as soon as you group it
so this should be really easy to optimize and thus should be looked at
cheers
-
very good observation, I can certainly exactly reproduce it on my end in the latest beta as well.
so now we just need a moderator or dev coming along to report the issue :D
cheers
-
Sure... but.... answering 1-2 times /month is a bit too little I think.
:blink: hmmm, yeah :ph34r:
actually Dave is around sometimes and Matt is also around in the Share your Work area but the Photo team is mostly dead atm (even no change log in two releases) :o

realistically speaking for photo manipulation this will be nightmare whilst for graphic/ web design it might be acceptable
in this performance comparison are no pentium processors yet but I would expect it perform worse than an i3 processor
for photo manipulation you definitely want something like an i5 quad core or better. GPU does not really matter.

I had pretty much the exact same idea, I think this could be a great tool
although for your use case there are already workarounds mentioned in the link above
cheers

but c4d would not be able to import the afdesign file anyway so this would not help with your workflow I guess, TIFF is even pure pixel so would definitely not help.
maybe try PDF SVG or EPS, I guess any of them will be compatible and will preserve most of your vector stuff, PDF being the best and EPS the worst

https://affinity.serif.com/de/photo/ipad/ mobile versions are coming
a catalogue software as well https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/13792-dam-affinity-lightroom-killer-request/?p=61067
cheers Rob

I tried to cover the crop options in AP and AD as extensively as possible in this written piece so if you are looking for further explanations this will be for you :)
cheers

Right, and I assume that the native Affinity-format file is loss-less, so it can be manipulated, opened and closed, etc. as much as needed without degrading, right? I can see in this thread that I'm not the only one who isn't clear on these underlying basics. I still don't see the what/why of editing the undeveloped RAW ...
there are two reasons, now really one is left
whitebalance
in the RAW file, the R,G,B "pixels" are separated so you can control the dominance between those, this is not possible afterwards because these pixels are merged during demosaicing (the white balance in the photo persona is not the same, it just tries to trick the effect but is not accurate, therefore it only has a % and not an K measurement)
before we had 32bit in the photo persona, there was a second reason.
RAW is up to 16bit linear data and does not fit even into 16bit developed data in the photo persona. Therefore shadows that were lost in the RAW persona could not be recovered afterwards. see here https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/15873-coming-2016-32bit-hdr-editing-sneak-preview/?p=72119
If you develop into 16bit this is still the case.

sounds very reasonable

Hi Murphy,
The only way to reverse the Erase Brush Tool is to go to Edit > Undo whenever you make a mistake you can also use CMD + Z for this or CTRL + Z on Windows :)
well actually no, if you use the eraser on a mask or on an embedded mask of a filter like the blur filter it behaves just like black paint
so to paint the effect back, just paint white
the correct approach is to not use the erase brush
just use black an white brushes on masks and you can also do greyscale for shadings
of course you can use the same mask for a blur and for an exposure adjustment
let me know if you have further questions or if you need more detailed explanations
cheers
Designer 1.6 Beta – when?
in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Posted
could be but is very unlikely, if anything, they will have an adobe live demo, see last time
