The system load caused by Affinity Photo RAW is simply extremely high!

I cannot make the pictures available to you. Try opening any pictures at the same time. No matter which ones, Photo crashes. I have Affinity Photo from Windows Store, use Windows 11. There are free apps that offer much better RAW development. And DxO, for example, is miles better and more powerful than Affinity Photo.

I tried to open 3 RAW files in Affinity Photo at the same time to develop them. Affinity Photo crashed immediately!

Where is this button?

How can I set text frames to white in Affinity Designer? In my case the text frame is suddenly in pink color.

Genau, bei mir gibt es keinen Eintrag Textrahmen. Affinity Designer aus Microsoft Store.

Hello, has the panel "Text frame" disappeared? There is no entry in View Studio. https://affinity.help/publisher/de.lproj/index.html?page=pages/Panels/textFramePanel.html?title=Das "Text frame" panel How can I change background color for text? Thanks.

Unfortunately, even free Inkscape can export better PNG, JPG than Affinity Designer. I would like to refer to this discussion:

Here is an example of how free Inkscape can export the PNG. The quality of the export is much better than with Affinity Designer. In this respect, Affinity should really improve this.

I tried the new version of Inkscape, it offers a very good vectorisation of PNG. Inkscape is a very good and free software.

It's horrible !!! Really disillusioned and disappointed !!!

I don't currently plan to use Illustrator. There are an extensive number of vector brushes for Illustrator on the internet. These are vector graphics. It's really bad that in Affinity Designer the vector brushes don't make real vectors that you can export as a vector file. A very big disadvantage.

I don't currently use Illustrator either.

You can try Adobe Illustrator for 7 days for free.

The best way is to try for yourself.

This is really an embarrassment for Affinity Designer. Yes, in Illustrator the real vectors are brushes.

That is not a solution. I meant just the possibilities in Affinity Designer. These are vector brushes. So it's absolutely incomprehensible why you can't convert them as a vector object and export them.

@walt.farrell Is it possible to convert this brush outline into a vector object?

This is very bad if they cannot then be exported as vector graphics. Is there no possibility?

@NotMyFault @Alex M Can an outline designed with a vector brush be exported as an EPS vector graphic? It did not work for me. This is just one example.

Thank you for this information. I hope the export quality will be improved. I use Affinity from Windows Store. Otherwise Affinity Designer is a great software.

Affinity Designer does not export PNG satisfactorily. For design in advertising agencies exported quality is not good, for hobby design possibly still goes. You are free to compare themselves.

@MEB I can send Serif support these files. What email does Serif support have? You are also welcome to send to Serif Support. Support For questions, reporting bugs and requesting features please post on our forums. https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/contact/

The word Open is aligned in the same way in the middle of the A4. The colour is the same and so is the font size. In addition, it must be said that it is CorelDRAW from 2013.

First is from CorelDRAW, second from Affinity Designer. Open Sans, 144pt. RGB black.
