I think some of the people answering this post are simply missing the point. I could, if I wanted to, export my document to PDF and look at the result in another program. That kind of defeats the purpose. I usually have guide lines all over the place and most of my objects are side by side so it can get confusing to the eye. In Corel Draw I'd punch F9 and I'd get a full screen display showing me what Corel "sees", without the UI, the guidelines and all the other symbols aimed at giving information to the designer. I got a final result, on demand. It makes catching design errors so much easier. And no, Toggle UI is not the same thing. While it's not a crucial must-have, being able to quickly preview a design is - at least to me - damn useful and I find myself hitting F9 all the time because of my time with Corel. I'm sure I can get a similar result by manually deactivating everything I don't want to see in Affinity designer / photo / publisher but it's not the same as a "one button does it all". Also, suggesting we use another piece of software instead of using Affinity designer / photo / publisher is not the best way to proceed IMHO.
