    I do not use global sources, yet I get a blurred result in the latest Affinity Photo in 2021: Update: Seems to be related if you managed to click on the source close to a floating point coordinate or not... which seems bad to me.

    So apparently, this thread informs me that there's a new "contour tool", but it doesn't make the workflow faster! You still loose your initial curve You still get a double offset, even if you only want one direction You still have to epxand and clean up afterwards Quite disappointed, honestly.

    Had to use this at work today... and once again had to go back to Illustrator. Wow, and this thread is even older than the huge one asking for vector brushes and vector patterns? Affinity still has a long way to go until I can start recommending it to coworkers!
  4. eobet
    Does this massive thread encompass true vector brushes as well or patterns along paths? It's very difficult to search for answers because there's so many questions about this on this forum and a lot of what I'm getting is all the way back from 2015.

    I tried that, but lost all the internal layers. I had to detatch the document window from the application window, and then drag everything over. Very cumbersome workaround. I expected just to be able to right-click and choose "explode embedded" or something like that.
  6. eobet
    Then I'm editing the embedded file. I still don't get the actual objects in the document where I dropped it.

    I dropped an SVG into a Designer document and positioned it where I want it, and now I want to edit it, but I can't figure out which option converts it from "embedded" to actual objects...

    I can't easily make the boundaries in that tool straight/linear, so if you have a quick method for that I'm interested.
  9. eobet
    You can only grab the corners of the border that appears with the perspective tool. Sometimes, I'd like to grab the edges too to move an entire side. Procreate on the iPad did this very well with the distort tool. Affinity should take som inspiration from that, because right now, the perspective tool is a bit cumbersome to use.

    ...but if I import the AI file directly, things look fine. Very weird. (Can't share the SVG, as it is a customer file, but it looks fine in Edge.)

    This is the largest thread for this, so perhaps a moderator could merge these two in here as well? Interesting reflection that users have been asking for five years about this feature now... Also, this is in the desktop section, but naturally the iPad should get it too (I was using the iPad when I needed it). Plus, it should be easy to modify a curve after you've applied the perspective... that's what's missing from the workarounds currently, I suspect.

    "Transform studio"!? Why the heck is that necessary when on the desktop you have flip button right in the top menu bar and the flyout menu bar on the iPad has lots of room? I had to search this forum just to figure out how do perform this on the iPad. I've said it before, but Affinity on the desktop is quite nice to use, but the iPad UI is convoluted and unintuitive and I avoid using it as much as possible. 🤬

    The creator of that database has said that he does not have time to maintain it anymore. You are a commercial entity using that database, and apparently it is open source as well. Why don't you put some effort back into the community and update it yourselves?

    Unless I misclicked it, it shouldn't have been. I tried the wet edge effect but doesn't look 100% the same as in that screenshot above... but again, today the strokes are normal and no amount of clicking in the toolbar can make me replicate what I saw that made me post this thread.
  15. eobet
    No settings, it's a built-in basic brush. It worked the day before yesterday, then yesterday it was like that all day, and today it's back to normal. Not really stable. 🙁
  16. eobet
    Why has this happened? Why are there outlines around where the brush crosses an old stroke? Also, if I start drawing inside a stroke, I can no longer draw outside of it.

    I think this thick line with a butt cap behaves as if it had a square cap when it doesn't:
  18. eobet
    Is this still true in 2021? (I was also surprised by the default Publisher behavior, and for my internet search, this thread was the top result.) EDIT: The answer is no, linked documents now reduce the file size of the publisher file, which is very nice! 👍

    I can't see if I posted in this thread yet or not, but again I was surprised that Affinity doesn't support DXF when I tried today. Zero chance that anyone where I work will even consider Affinity without this as well (but granted, there are other showstoppers in Affinity too).

    I also have the flickering issue. 1440p 144hz monitor using the latest Nvidia drivers. Apparently, Unreal Engine is also affected (several people in their Discord have acknowledged it). I hope Nvidia are aware of this, but there has been two driver releases with this problem in now already.
  23. eobet
    Thank you from 2021! 😀 Is there an easy way to scale the effect?
  24. eobet
    After I enable the "force pixel alignment" and "move by whole pixels" buttons in the toolbar, I expect all my copy, paste and move operations, regardless of shortcuts or tool combinations used, to be pixel aligned. And it looks like it is... until you press Ctrl-E to merge... then all of the sudden, things get super blurry. I hope this gets fixed soon!
  25. eobet
    That's great. One person is like, ooh, artboards are so flexible and can do pretty much anything, and the second person is like, no, they're very different. Talk about a UI that leaves confusing impressions on people! 😂 I'm half joking, but Affinity could do well to make the Ux more consistent and clear in this area, I think.
