Photoshop 1 and Photoshop 2023 are not the same application. In addition, there is also photoshop for ipad. Therefore you are in a similar situation photoshop for macOS, windows and ipad. Photoshop did not change the name. You do. But don't be offended, Serif workers. Adobe does too.

It is the same application made from scratch. In fact, 90% of the new features (not all) are already in Draw plus. And the new ones that come will be AutoTrace, and others that are already in draw plus. But it's okay drawplus was very good. If anyone doesn't believe me, download drawplus and you'll feel at home. Thanks for defending that they have done it since 0. Don't bother man (from now on I will no longer name DrawPlus). Versions of Illustrator and Photoshop changed engine and code and had to be made from scratch, but they needed the same developers to make the change. There must be a reason. I leave it there. I also say that they are making a great effort.

Of course, they will have to adapt it and write it in the appropriate language. Also improving it, removing centralized stuff, using proprietary framework libraries that your current core obviously uses, among other things... it's not free. Don't loop, leave it.

without the draw plus base that they have been working on since the 90s or so, it would be impossible to have built affinity. The same as adobe that they have been working on since a few years before. They could not have had the versions that they currently have.

I'm not saying it's simple I know. There are features that come over the years. No hurry.

before adobe xd was inside photoshop and then they decided to put it in another application. It was free, no. They reused some of their code: yes. They had to adapt it: of course they did.

Photoshop made much more drastic changes in terms of technology, code, interface and it was an evolution. Just don't change the name. You could say that the current version has nothing to do with it, but it is still Photoshop and they were adapting their code. Of course you have to do it gentlemen analysts and developers. You don't want forum users to do it, many spend hours submitting bug reports.

all of us who had draw plus know that it works under windows. Some Adobe applications also changed the rendering engine in some of its versions and it was still called Illustrator and Photoshop. Serif wouldn't have gotten where it is without the Draw plus code. In 5 years it is impossible to do that. Those who have not had Draw plus install it and see what I say (uncommon hahahaha). We already know that it now works for 2 more platforms, it puts it on its website (we know how to read). Well let's leave the news from Wikipedia. Let's focus, can you add an animation panel or something else to make animations?: Yes, if Serif decides they want to add it. And then they will review the code that they already have implemented in Draw plus, and they will adapt-modify it for the languages and paradigms they use. Sure developers could not be copy and paste. Note that I am not criticizing the company, it seems very intelligent not to have to reinvent the wheel. I use your software daily.

I know, changing algorithms and code to different languages is tedious and takes a lot of work. But nothing happens, we are patient.

You already have it done in Draw plus, you just need to refactor the code to incorporate it in Designer. Draw plus continues to be even more advanced. They are gradually incorporating these tools. If you look closely, it's the same application, but they made it multi-device and with a more pleasant and up-to-date interface.

Photoshop makes it perfectly simple. Draw plus even simpler (but does not export to gif but to a format not supported by current browsers) d3a12192-a47f-47aa-a833-deeda51b4708_1686843941.854x480at800_h264.mp4

After so many years Draw plus is still even more advanced. Hopefully the code refactoring will make the ability to create gifs using the animation panel available to us. We will attract many more users like animators and banner designers,...

It would be great to implement it in Designer. Before we had it in Draw plus.

Affinity keeps adding new features. This makes the performance problem increasingly difficult to detect. I would stop adding functions to the application and urgently solve this error (at least it works as well as V1)
