This solves my current problem very well. Although it always requires a few more steps than being able to drag and drop directly into the document for editing in the future, it is more convenient than having to double-click the icon every time to open it for editing in another canvas. That's a lot. thank you so much for your suggestion.

Yes, thank you for your suggestion, but this is the same logic as dragging in an svg image and double-clicking it to open it. This is very inconvenient since we usually process many similar image files in succession.

I'm sorry to question these because I didn't set the resolution of the CAD, so the curves didn't look very smooth. However, the conversion of text information is indeed a problem. It is all displayed in the curve form of characters in CAD, which is not very convenient to edit.

How can I import an svg image so that it can be directly recognized as a vector image instead of embedded? When working in batches or importing svg images, you need to double-click to open the document and edit it. It is very inconvenient. Does anyone have a way to solve this problem?

Yes, thank you for the reminder, I really appreciate it.

Yes, it has been requested many times. I have not seen improvements to this project in the new beta version. Can you reveal the progress of this project? Immediately, I have to fill in the dimensions manually every time using the straight arrow tool. If you are developing similar functions, be sure to consider not using the spacing option between annotations or text size, arrow size (shape), if possible. It is best to manually modify or add prefixes or other information after obtaining the dimensions. You can even combine the dimension annotation and the arrow annotation into one. You can not only measure the dimension, but also use arrows to mark some key point information.

This function still needs to be improved. When I tried to use it again, I found that it did not export PDF. After using the able2extract conversion CAD tool, the effect of importing into CAD was better, because after exporting to DWG format, it lost a lot of text content, and vector graphics were not visible in CAD. The edges are also simplified and cannot be used. I often use affinity to export PDF and convert it to DWG or other formats that are convenient for screen printing. In the industry, Affinity is generally used by our Chinese designers to make printing files and CMF. I think Affinity’s future should have basic dimensions or information annotations (this is annotations rather than simple measurements, it should have various arrow options similar to the current line head and tail options), and have excellent dimensional accuracy, and can also add commonly used Color management systems similar to PANTONE and ral allow designers to flexibly call and optimize the accuracy of graphic exports. Add an export scale option to PDF export, because we sometimes process files with very large canvases and let him export an A4 paper. The size of the PDF file can be fully opened in Adobe PDF, narrowing the gap between it and AI or CDR.

I think since there is already a measurement tool in version 2.3, measurement and labeling issues should be a feature that needs to be added, because we have many designers using affinity to edit printing files, and they need to convey size information to customers so that they can be used at different times. There is a clear size reference when converting formats between suppliers, so I suggest that the dimensioning function can be added and the dimensions can be displayed in real time as the size of the graphics changes.

The affinity designer and affinity photo have significant hysteresis when dragging or editing vector patterns.

Hello everyone, I am from China, I love affinity design very much, I have a problem is how to change the color scheme of the gradient transversely.Can someone help me with this problem.
