Hi First Defence, thank you for the reply but I don't really feel like it has answered my question.
I am already aware of the power duplicate tool but in Adobe Illustrators transform tool all the parameters can be edited and tuned to achieve far more complex geometric patterns, its very fast and efficient. For example editing the circle, see the video. I.e.. number of copies, angles, scaling/moving vertical/horizontal positions.
Far more complex patterns can be achieved in Illustrator with a lot less effort by using there transform tool, its alot different to the power duplicate in Affinity. Every parameter can be easily edited to make a wider range of patterns which are not easy to make with power duplicate alone.
Is there any thing/menu/tool like this in Affinity where I have more control over the duplication or am I just stuck with power duplicate Cmd+J?
I hope my question is a bit clearer this time.
I appreciate your time, thanks again.
