I am accustomed to working in Photoshop CS6, and when working with text at 150% zoom the text is smooth without any pixelization. So yesterday when I worked with Affinity text for the 1st time, at 150% zoom, the text was pizelized and looks terrible. See attached comparisons of Affinity Text at 150% without anti-aliasing (because it doesn't exist), compared to Photoshop text at 150% zoom with anti-alias set to Smooth, and Photoshop text at 150% zoom with Anti-Alias set to None. There is a big difference in Quality. You say that Affinity Text at 100% zoom looks acceptable, but it is inferior to Photoshop text quality with anti-alias. I don't know why Affinity developers are satisfied with much inferior text quality without anti-alias, and have not improved it for at least 4 years.

I didn't mean to repost this a 2nd time. It was in my browser in edit mode when I opened Firefox, and when trying to clear, it was posted again - please delete and when I My typed text is very rough and looks terrible. I have spent an hour googling, searching the forum, and trying the Gamma Blend options, and it still is rough and looks terrible. This makes Affinity useless for my needs. A new user should not have to spend hour searching for hours to find a the solution for typing Smooth Text. There needs to be easy option like those in Photoshop - drop down menu - Noner - Sharp - Crisp - Strong - Smooth. I see that this issue has

My typed text is very rough and looks terrible. I have spent an hour googling, searching the forum, and trying the Gamma Blend options, and it still is rough and looks terrible. This makes Affinity useless for my needs. A new user should not have to spend hours searching for a solution for typing decent looking Text. I couldn't even find a Video Tutorial on the Text Tool. There needs to be easy option like those in Photoshop - a drop down menu with presets, None - Sharp - Crisp - Strong - Smooth. I see that this anti-aliasing issue has been active, and Anti-Aliasing presets requested for 4 years, since 2015, without any action by Serif to add this much needed improvement . I guess I'll have to go back to using Photoshop and request a Refund for this Affinity program purchased yesterday. DO THE PROGRAMMERS / DEVELOPMENT DEPT. EVEN SEE THIS FEEDBACK IN THE FORUM & THE IMPROVEMENT REQUESTS?
