[Pen tool and vector brushes on strokes]

Hi NathanC, Thank you for your answer.
It would be a nice addition in the future though! Especially for illustrator/designers like me who like to work with vector from the start. It would save me a lot of time!

[Pen tool and vector brushes on strokes]

I make a lot of vector illustrations on my iPad and on desktop. I also like to use a nice brushstroke to the illustration. So I'm happy that I can use vector brushes in Affinity Designer. Only problem is that when I draw something by pen tool, it always starts in a default setting with no brush applied to it. But if I'm drawing I'd like to see the brushstroke I use straight away, not change every item I draw afterwards (which is a lot of extra work). Does any of you know a way that you can assign a brushstroke (temporarily) as the default to a pen stroke?

Thanks in advance!

[Affinity publisher on Ipad]

Yes! I definitely need an iPad version of Publisher! I'm desperate to know when a version is comming!
I'm currently using both Affinity and Adobe apps (especially because of inDesign, which is still the standard over here), but if Affinity would offer a version of Publisher on iPad pro. I would probably switch over completely. Right now, the only thing coming close to desktop publishing on iPad is Adobe Comp. But that is a very simple app and doesn't have all the typographic features I need.

So please great people at Affinity, give us Publisher for iPad pro! It's what professional graphic designers need and it will probably get you a lot of new customers.
