No architectural-ratio drawing scale in Designer? I'm new to Designer and have used Corel for years to draw a number of projects using scaling (Ex. 1/4 inch = 1 foot) to accomplish it in order to print it out on letter sized paper. Besides myself, but how does anyone use this application do any modeling for 3-D printing, sign making, plot drawings for land, etc, etc, - which are a snap to do in Corel?
Maybe I need to go back to Corel?
Am I missing where the feature is, or has Affinity really ignored an important market segment?
I Have Been Waiting Now For 2 Years for This Feature!
I Came From Corel To DrawPlus in 2014, but had to go back to Corel after Affinity Designer came out.
Corel is a magnificent drawing program for architectural scale technical drawing, but they just went to yearly subscription where you cannot buy the product at all -
so I'm back again and sad to see that Affinity isn't interested in increasing their sales market to a niche group: People who vector-draw scale renderings!
I draw artist conceptions for landscape sculpture and architectural features that have to be pretty precise to scale; plus I design a lot of logos, signs and marketing materials - so I prefer to stay in one program for it all.
I really fell in love with the Serif products and dumped Corel when I came upon DrawPlus. For close to 6 years, DrawPlus and PagePlus right next to it gave me everything I wanted.
I wish Affinity would put some time into putting the scale back into Designer. After a lot of searching on the internet for an option to Corel, I'm not finding anything, so back I go - at least for another year! I hope to be back here again.
