Great stuff, thank you R C-R!

Now that's a very good idea! I did that now. Is there a quicker way to find a keyboard shortcut than scrolling through all of them or doing a google search? In other software, there is a search for keystroke and search for command ...

Typing the text manually is much quicker. This convert-to-curve thing happened multiple times, so I thought I better understand it so I can prevent and undo it. As carl123 suggested: I'll remove the keyboard shortcut for convert to curve now ... 🙃 Thank you so much for helping a newbie with this trivial stuff!

Thank you, Garry, that makes sense! The History Panel, as with most other panels, can be shown via the Window menu, e.g. menu “Window → History”. Great, thank you!

Thank you for your reply, Walt! I know about the undo command, but that's not available anymore once the program was closed and restarted. My idea was that if it's possible to turn the Frame Text into curves, there must be a way to turn the curves back into a frame text ... Another question: Where can I find that history panel that you mentioned? In my Affinity Photo 2.3.1 there is only undo and redo under the edit tab, but no history.

I didn't know about these two different kinds of text, and I was using Artistic Text because it was chosen automatically. I just needed to use Frame Text. 😊 Thank you!

Accidentally I turned a text layer (Frame Text) into curves, that is each single letter is on it's own. How can I undo this (turn the text into one single text layer again)? Oh, and how did I actually do this (so I can prevent it from happening in the future ... 🙃)? I just clicked or double-clicked somewhere in the layer to change the text ... Thank you!

Yes, that's the solution! Thank you!

How can the auto warp text (is that the name of the function?) in Affinity Photo be turned off? I only want to resize the layer size to fit in more text, not distort the text. See image below. Thank you! 🙂

@David in Яuislip @Dan C @h_d Thanks again to everybody! I had to fiddle with the opacity in the Gradient Map, now I am really satisfied with the result! 🙂 Final question: Where can I fine tune the saturation? I didn't find that knob / option.

Hi there, I have 3 branding colors (1 main accent, one near white and one near black). In my video editor I found an option to set a different color for the light and the dark tone independently. So I set 2 of my colors, set the saturation and the intensity each to 50% - voila, loved the result. Now I want to do the same to my photos for branding reasons. So I tried all the options I could find (including the colorize function with the 2 sepia presets) but didn't get really close. How can I do this in Affinity Photo? Thanky ou for your help, Andi PS: My exact colors are vintage white: #FCF9F2 / 252 249 242 (instead of plain white) beige: #DEB887 / 222 184 135 dark brown (instead of plain black): #35211D / 53 33 29.

Thank you so much, Joachim! I already found that option, set it as standard for the first two RGBA things, didn't work. Now I changed it for all 6 and there it is, my own color palette. 😎 Thanks again, Andi

Hi Affinity fellows, I found out how to create my own color palette and added my 5 most used colors to it. How do I set this color palette as standard so that everytime I open or create a new document it is already selected? Thank you for your help, Andi

@Patrick Connor Thank you, Patrick. Now it's working!
