Guedes

oh so sorry next time imma ask you if you want it too before saying that "everyone" wants something. didn't mean to gaslight your opinion.

Please, let’s keep this discussion alive.

THANK YOU! The main topic suggesting this was written in 2018, there are lots of people asking for it and the only answer is they "hope to implement this in a future version". Is it even coming in a future version? Maybe in the 6.0 upgrade? It would be great, every one wants this, I don't know what's up with the Affinity devs when they think it's more useful to do the "shape builder" tool than to make people use fonts the way it's intended to do.

Yeah, you just proved me right.

It's kinda sad how the discussion went from "we want something that's getting popular" in 2020 to "why do you actually need it?" and "do you want it that bad? take a look at an app hat turns your variable font into a static font". Affinity sofware ain't getting any updates related to variable fonts, the users themselves seems to prefer questioning other users about the need for those fonts instead of making this discussion a whole request for Serif to move forward on implementing variable fonts. Sad. Really sad.

Still not supporting, dudes... it's already 2022.

Well, this haven't happened the last time I tried to update.

Not >for me<, I thought more people were getting that error. To prevent it, it would be useful a way to select the install path.

Well, I found the solution (if anyone here's getting this error too). On Windows' cmd, type [Path]\affinity-designer-customer-beta.exe /extract A window called "Create MSI" will show up. Just fill it with your e-mail and product key and put in the Install Path the folder where Designer.exe's located. A MSI will be generated and it will be automatically installed when you open it.

I've got Affinity Designer 1.7.0.293 installed on my PC, it was already updated and it works fine, but when I try to update it to 1.7.0.367 it just doesn't work, it says "Caminho inválido" (something like "inavalid path"). Affinity Designer's installed on E:\ and I can't update it. It'd be very (very very very) cool if we could select where Affinity is installed on the future updates. Thanks.
