Hi!Coming from Figma and Sketch, I need to be able to organize my Symbols using Folders. In Sketch / Figma, this is done by inputing a forward slash "/" inside a name, like this: "Control / Button" It would help A LOT to work faster. Thank you very much!

Hi!Coming from Figma and Sketch, I need to have my Symbols organized. After creating more than 30 Symbols, it really is a mess to find the one you need since it is ordered in order of creation, rather than alphabetically. Could you please organize the Symbols alphabetically by default, please? Thank you very much!

Hi! Coming from Figma and Sketch, I litterally can’t work without Symbols. Now, I have like 30 symbols to create… and I cannot believe I have to use the mouse to select an create each one of them. Can you add a keyboard shortcut for Create Symbol command? Like Cmd + K… While at it, it would be nice if we could add multiple Symbols at once with another keyboard shortcut: Cmd + Alt + K Thank you very much!

7 years later… this feature is still nowhere to be found… so we still have to rely on Photoshop to open older files. 🤦‍♂️

Also agree on this! Would be very nice to see this feature spread across Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo as well! :)

Or I would rather say, anything Astute Graphics are making! I really miss their plug-ins...

It’s been almost 4 years now for what I would consider a basic but essential feature. Any update on this topic?

I was also thinking that at first. However, there are about 3-5 ways of doing the same things in Photoshop. Affinity Photo shouldn’t force the user to a single way of doing these things. Maybe Affinity Photo team should hire heavy Photoshop users, let them test thoroughly, listen carefully to their feedback then adjust AP accordingly.

I agree this is an essential feature. I was swearing a tiny bit this afternoon while trying to retouch a simple picture which would have taken about 1/3 of the time in Photoshop. Please Affinity Photo team: this feature has been requested since 2016. 4 years ago. Thanks.

Hi Affinity Team, I also have the same problem! I was about to submit that as a bug: But well, since you acknowledged, it’s all good. Hope you can fix that soon, this is almost a roadblock for working correctly. Thanks!

Hi Affinity Team, I also agree with this. I still have many clients that are using Photoshop and having the possibility to import Layer Comps (or translate them to Snapshots?) would greatly help them transition over Affinity Photo. Any chance it might be doable? Thanks!

Hi Affinity Design team, I’ve been a long time user of Adobe Illustrator and the Astute Graphics plug-in suite for AI. As seen in their video (https://astutegraphics.com/tech/), it suggest you guys started integrating their tech in Affinity Designer. So I would like to ask: to what extend do you envision going forward with their technology? If that can be helpful to know, my wishes for Affinity Designer would be to have these features integrated in order of preference (first being most important): - VectorScribe - SubScribe - MirrorMe - InkScribe - ColliderScribe Thanks!

Hi Affinity Team, Coming from Illustrator and InDesign, I very often place reference guides outside the canvas. I tried unchecking Clip to Canvas but the Guides still cannot be shown. I also noticed Clip to Canvas is useless when at least a single Artboard is present. Would it be possible to fix that? It’s pretty annoying. Thanks.

Hello Affinity Team, Would it be possible to add Dithering Modes to the Export Persona when exporting PNG-8 or GIF ? Right now it's impossible to use something else than Diffusion. It would be nice if those options were available: - Diffusion - Pattern - Noise - None Also, it would be nice if there was an Export Preview with final file size to see the results before exporting. Right now, it's pretty tedious to blindly export, check the file in the Finder, then go back to Affinity Designer to adjust and repeat the process. Thank you very much, Philippe Côté

It would be nice if it was done earlier than Affinity Publisher's release. This is a pretty basic layout feature. :) Thanks.
