Can you help me: how do I import a text in Photo?

How do I make the text like this?

Thank you both, I'll try it out.

Take a square but instead of filling the square with black, I want to fill it with dots. I must be able to choose the size of the dots. I think that is named rasterize. How can I do this in AD? Thanks for helping me

Good, fine, thank you both, it works perfect!!!

I made this drawing but I forgot to click 'Scale with object'. Do I have to do it line by line or can I click on the whole drawing and do it all in one click? Your help please.

good idea, interesting. Thank you!

indeed P. Thank you. Affinity Designer, great program!

All right! Is it that easy! Many thanks verysame for your help!

see the attached file. How easy is it to make the star, well, it's not a star. I don't know how to call it. Your help please. Luc

I thank you all for helping me. The solution is simple now that you all helped me. Thank you all Luc

Before I had 'Character' and 'Layers' and 'Transform' all in a separate window. Now I have to click on one to see the window 'Character' etc. How can I change it back? Please help.

Indeed, thank you!!!

as you can see, there is a circle of dots. How do I do this in A.D.?

I re-installed the OS (recovery). It seems the problem is solved. 44" to start up the SSD with OS X 10.11.4 Hope it's solved.

Thank you for your reply. In fact the problem occures on 10.11.4, on an external SSD. The internal HD is only for testing 10.11.5. Affinity is working perfect on the testing OS. But the OS on the SSD became worse. Starting up became impossible. For the moment I am re-installing 10.11.4 on the SSD. I hope the problem will be solved.

Thanks Collum, I posted it on a Mac forum. Hope to get an answer.

Well, I don't know because I didn't open any other app. Fact is, after restarting it took too long to start up. As I said, normally it takes seconds to start up the SSD and now it took several minutes. I was afraid I should have lost data. And when starting up Affinity from the internal HD, I had no problem. Can something be wrong with the (6 months old) SSD?

Thank you Callum, but I don't know if Affinity is the problem. I posted this on a Apple group: "This started today. Nothing had changed, not a new OS, nothing. And suddenly, I was making a drawing in Affinity design, the wheel started turning. I couldn't stop it, I had to force quit the iMac. Started again (my drawing was lost), made the drawing with te pen tool, and again the turning wheel. 3 times. I work in 10.11.4. This happens on an external SSD drive ( I keep my internal HD for 10.11.5 tests) Normaly when I switch on the iMac from the SSD it takes maybe 10" to start, that's why I have this SSD. But now it takes 3 or 4 minutes to start up the SSD. Not normal! What 's the reason? I have the SSD for 6 months. Should I re-install the OS? And if so, how do I do that? All advice is welcome" What do you think?

This started today. Nothing changed, not a new OS, nothing. And suddenly, I was making a drawing (pen tool, a certain line) I stopped with the pen tool, then the wheel started turning. I couldn't stop it, I had to force quit the iMac. Started again (my drawing was lost), made the drawing with te pen tool, and again the turning wheel. 3 times, and now it's impossible to work with AD on 10.11.4 from today. On an other partition I have 10.11.5, no problem with AD. Who can help me?

perfect!

I have Affinity Photo too. That is the best solution I think. Many thanks DWright!!!

indeed there are several possibilities. The result is not 100% because the first letters must be higher then the last ones, but is already an improvement. Hopefully - as MEB says - that will be solved in the next update.

you mean like this:

sorry Darren, what is the 'scew option'? Where do I find it?
