Dear guys, I am still looking forward to using the software in the middle eastern languages too, I hope that you will acquire ALL what Adobe has in detailed manner and transform it in your own way in your software in order to make it compatible FULLY.
I understand that licensing of such technology would increase the price of Affinity Designer, but it also would ad super-powes that Adobe doesn't have in Illustrator.
I think Affinity would get much more clients with this feature built-in Affinity Designer.
Dear guys, there is on Astute Graphics website those plugins that cost really much in order to be added unto Adobe illustrator that lacks those abilities that are super useful, anyways I hope you go and try to reate something similar in a different way. (I mean we already know why Sreif created those apps because they are affordable for students and teachers who are able to buy the software and use it).
thank you in advance for taking into consideration my mail, I hope.

Common Feature Requests index
Below is a list of common requested features for which there is already a thread created. Please avoid to create new ones if your request/feedback fits in one of those threads. We consider all requests no matter if they are common (and listed here) or not. The intend of this list is to avoid unnecessary thread duplicates. If you need to create a new one, please add just ONE request per thread.
There is NOT a vote system in place. Adding +1 to those topics will NOT affect their priority nor imply their implementation. That’s mostly dependent on time and development goals and constraints. Thanks.
