Seems like this software is dead. We cant get a simple way to edit alpha channels. Id pay for a new version if features like this are added and the font/icons beome larger and better to read. Endless discounts wont make much of a proper funding.

Not willing to return it. Id pay double if the software developers can start to implement important features that are needed. So far i currently dont use it anymore. Uninstalling Affinity wasnt possible, needed a tool from Microsoft. Afterwards i wanted to install the latest version to check back on the new features. Well, the installer said its "updateing" instead of installing, so i cant chose the installation path anymore, which leaves Affinity photo on my tiny bloated 120 GB SSD with Windows installed. I cant scarifice anymore space of the 15 GB that are left, so Affinity had to go again 😞 Lucky me my PS cs 5 purchase from second hand was all transferd to my account and is thereby legal. Still wish i could check the new Affinity features.

Gave up for now on Affinity. For the price theres nothing you can complain. Theres no viable freeware alternative. To sad some features take years to implement. Alpha channel editing, bmp export, better color range selection, artistic filters, brush dithering. Was lucky to buy a used license from PS that some nice user was willing to transfer me. Not going subscription.Id pay 100, 200$ for a programm like Affinity, if this could help them speed up the Project. For now, i have to go back to PS....

I think a checkbox for Anti Aliasing of the UI font, plus the ability to change the font and the size is not changeing the whole interface. In Blender you can fully customize font and aa etc. Many 3d applications allow many interface customizations. I tried to load all those xml files and looked into them but nothing refers to font or font rendering.

Hello there I made a screenshot and enlarged the picture to 200% without interpolation You can see that the font on my desktop is much more clear to read than Affinitys font. I tried to regedit, turned off cleartype etc. I run Win 7 at home and have set it to max performance (This way all anti aliasing will be turned off) In the Office we recently purchased Affinity Photo and Designer and playn to replace Adobe with it. My Computer in the Office has Win 10 installed, its much more unasy to turn off all Anti Aliasing and Sub Pixel Anti Aliasing for the Win 10 System, change the system font? Need regedit to use Tahoma. I found no backdoor way to disable AA in Affinity, there seems no config file whatsoever in the install folder, only alot of dll.

Hi can i bump this topic up? Please Serif Team can you guys respond? I know a small team is very busy with many things, and this seems a minor problem. I find it great we designers finally get an seriouse alternative to the big A. Never liked GIMP. I dont want endless features, i need ease of use / usability. Tight time schedules dont allow me to hassle with overcomplicated quirks .Dont like subscriptions either. To the topic, i have the same issues reading anti aliased fonts or cleartype( even worse). I have seriouse issues with my diopters so anything in between screen pixels appears like unsharp for me and causing headache. I already have problems turning off all font AA on win 10. Seems MS doesnt care this problem either. My first LCD screen was such a relief to finally read binary fonts clear. Now with the advent of new win 10 and other modern applications i feel back to those horrible times of CRT screens that allways caused me issues. I hope the developers read this and can make it possible to deactivate all font AA withing their programms, and maybe even make it possible to choose a font. I prefer Tahoma since its a font you can already ready quite good at 12 pt. Kep the good work going guys!
