I am a cabinet maker and I upgraded to v2 (universal license) solely for the measure tool. The fact that the measure line is non-persistent and not printable is bizarre and pointless. I now have to abandon Designer (after - literally - a few seconds of use) and revert to Graphic Really grateful if you would correct this.

Thank you, Patrick. Is the software identical? Some apps on MAS have some functionality removed to align with Apple's strict requirements. Regards Chris

Hi, further to the title can someone advise where to buy and download. I am a Mac/iOS user and I think I have a choice of either the MAS or direct with Affinity. Are there pros/cons of either option? Thanks Chris

Hi, My experience: Nik plugins are hit and miss (eg, HDR is fine & Define does not work), Portraiture does not work. MacPhun Tonality Pro, brings up attached box and freezes the app - Force Quit required. Chris PS This is on the MAS release app - not the Beta.

Hi Hokusai, Much appreciated - what I was trying to achieve was so basic that I missed it. You've forced me to look a little harder and then it became obvious. I think I'll place myself back in the Newbie category. Regards Chris

Thanks, Hokusai, Symbols would solve a lot! However, for now, I'm happy to manually make the multiple selections myself, but can I then apply a common FILL once I've made the multiple selection. Chris

Dear All, Can I change the fill simultaneously on multiple objects. I can select the objects I need to change, but can't figure out the next step. For background, what I've done is create an object that comprises dozens of copies of the original object. I now need to change the colour of the fill of the original (and hence the new collective objects). See attached pics. Thanks Chris

Many thanks, Andy - you're a hero. I can stop pulling hair now. Interestingly, this app get more powerful the more you use it! Regards Chris

Dear All, I've watched the subject tutorial video, which is only 25s long, a few dozen times; I just can't follow it (some narrative would have been good). It's fascinating that you seem to be able to do the boolean operation (+ or -) in real time. At some point in the process (video) the boolean operation indicator appears in the layers pallet (which you can then change from + to - etc); I can't replicate this also. I just don't get what I'm missing. For simplicity, I create a square vector object and then another object, which I overlap with the first. I select both and then I use the appropriate boolean addition button and the new 'compound' shape is born. I then can't see a way (as appears the case in the video) where I can select one of the original shapes and move it so that the 'compound' shape changes in real time. I hope that makes sense to someone :-) Grateful for any guidance. Regards Chris

Thanks for the quick response, MEB. Regards Chris

Hi, Really thrilled with AD :-) Still discovering its strengths and weaknesses - latter is relative considering the bang for buck :-) Question: Is there a way to import Illustrator brushes? Many thanks Chris

+1; this is important.
