Desperately need it for sewing grading patterns. I have tried the workarounds, but it just doesn't work out the way I want it with complex sewing patterns for seam allowances.
I want to stay with Affinity so bad though.
The feature I dream for is a more robust pattern making tool, like what Illustrator has, only better in the way that Serif would make it
I do a lot of clothing design and really miss having Illustrator's pattern tool... A LOT. Not being able to easily make repeating patterns is a major bummer. And yes I know how to make symbols and tile them, but it's clunky and not an intuitive method. Plus I think it's far more processor intensive to do it that way than a smart pattern interface would be.
With the addition of something like that, I could certainly move my whole art department over!
