In this beginner tutorial I'll show you how to draw a parking disk with various tools and techniques in Affinity Designer 1.6.0. Although this tutorial is only available in German, you can hopefully follow the course of the video. The detailed table of contents in English inside the video description is hopefully a good guide for the single steps. Keep on drawin' Norbert -

In this tutorial I will demonstrate the option Copy items as SVG in Affinity Designer 1.6.0. I use this function often to animate SVG with CSS keyframe animations and some JS in HTML. Just like this example which is a GIF (SVG is not allowed because of it's security issue). You can watch the original SVG file here. Keep on drawin' Norbert

Thank you for your supplement to this tutorial. I know the Polygon Tool It's just a demonstration how you can draw the triangle with a different technique. I've used the Polygon Tool in other tutorials like this to draw this kind of a triangle.

In this user request I will demonstrate how to work with cut lines and the overprint function of Affinity Designer 1.6.0. You need this functions for printing and cutting stickers with custom shapes. You can download the Affinity Designer project file of the tutorial here: https://goo.gl/JT7yQh Keep on drawin' Norbert

It would be nice if you offer custom shortcuts for all operations that Affinity Designer offers through the different bars like the symbol bar at the top or the context bar. I miss especially the options to switch between node types and all actions, not only open and join curve. That would make my workflow a lot faster.

Thank you for you reply @Gnobelix! If you've learned something new, then creating the tutorial has been well worth it. Keep on drawin' Norbert

Hey @Kiarian, thanks for you comment. Symbols are really very useful and offers a lot of possibilities in your drawings and design. I've created some other tutorials where I demonstrate the use of symbols. You'll find them on my YT channel. Keep on drawin' Norbert

Hi @gkulka, AFAIK Affinity Photo can't read and operate with any values like width or height yet. -

Hi @gkulka! May be this tutorial in German will help you Makro aufzeichnen a bit. Norbert -
Thanks for your replies @carl123 and @dutchshader! I've just tested the Perspective Filter. Thanks for the hint to Live Filter Layer @carl123! Works fine if you work in Affinity Photo like in the gif of @WaveF - thank you @dutchshader. If I switch back to Affinity Designer and open the original AD file the program says: Can't wait to see a real perspective tool in AD.

Hi community, I'm working on a new tutorial and would like to know if it's possible to use the perspective tool of Affinity Photo non-destructively. Background of my question I use Affinity Designer symbols to project an image from a flat view (for printing purposes) to a perspective view in a mockup. In my last tutorial I use a parallel projection with the shear and rotate tool in the transformation panel. Now I would like to use the Perspective Tool of Affinity Photo. Wish Affinity Designer had a perspective tool. I just want to change the image in the flat view without touching the perspective view again. Any suggestions/ ideas? Norbert
-
I got it! Thx again work your approximate. In my next tutorial I will use/show this method.
-
Thank you very much @owenr! Works fine for the front panel. For the spine I've additionally to reduce the height but thats okay for me. Using the transform panel is a lot easier than doing it with the mouse.
