Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.5 - RC1)
tiltowait replied to MattP's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
So I'm sure this has been answered before, but in light of the warning that files created in 1.5 can't be opened in 1.4, does this mean that Affinity Photo can no longer open (new) AD files? -
Automatic alignment distances/snapping

Probably. I don't actually know what stacks is, but I saw "alignment" and got excited. -
Automatic alignment distances/snapping
tiltowait replied to tiltowait's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
Sorry to dredge up an old post (of my own!), but I figured it would be better than making a new one. I noticed that the 1.4 updates that just came out today have a line about "Live Stacks - Auto-aligned layers for creating composites". That wouldn't, by any chance, be what I'm looking for, would it? I'm guessing not, but I can dream ... -
Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.1)

Just FYI: The font bug I brought up is present in El Capitan GM just released today. -
Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.1)

Yep. Validates just fine. Also, in an entirely unrelated issue, I opened Designer Beta and it offered to recover a file due to a crash ... yet there had been no crash, and I had previously closed the app without a document open. Sadly, I didn't opt to "recover" it, so I'm not sure how much this report is worth. I was in a bit of a hurry at the time. -
Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.1)

ITC Kabel Std. It comes with several faces: Book, Medium, Demi, Bold, and Ultra. In 10.11, Bold appears to be missing. What's actually happening is that Ultra is missing; selecting Ultra gives the Bold face, and the Ultra face is nowhere to be found. Clicking the "bold" button (instead of selecting it from the drop-down) makes it bold, as well, but under the incorrect Ultra heading. -

I recognize that you can't really prioritize El Capitan yet, but there's still an issue with both apps not showing certain fonts. These fonts do work in other apps and in Yosemite. -
In Photoshop, you can make a selection, hit V, then align the current layer based on that selection. Is there any way to do this in Affinity Photo? I found the Arrange button in the toolbar, but that only aligns based on the entire canvas, even with "selection bounds" selected. I'm dearly hoping that I'm just missing something...

I don't know about the Huion, but I know that many people love tablets using UC Logics digitizers. I'd be really tempted by the Monoprice tablet if the pen had an eraser. (The Huion page on Amazon doesn't mention UC Logics, but the pen looks similar. Could be the same thing.) A Cintiq alternative to look at is the Yiynova. As for the topic at hand, note that neither Affinity app yet works with rotation. Panning and zooming are both much smoother than Photoshop, so I hope this is added soon.

Yosemite requires 64-bit processors. I know you can sometimes get OS X running on unofficially supported hardware, but I'd be really surprised if you could get it running on a 32-bit system.

Watermark

I agree that the GIMP has a poor UI. There used to be a fork that gave it a Photoshop-like UI, but I don't know if that's still a thing. -

Great! -
Automatic alignment distances/snapping

One feature I really like in Pixelmator (and I think Photoshop) is that it has the option to automatically guess that you're laying out elements in equal distances from each other. This would be a really nice feature for Affinity Photo and Designer. Since I don't think I did a good job explaining it, I took a screenshot. (I was moving around the bottom ellipse; the cursor doesn't show up in the screenshot.) If that's still not sufficient, I can record a video. -
Rotate Canvas Tool for Affinity Photo
tiltowait replied to groxo's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
+1 I saw the video from a while back, and it looks great. This feature would be a godsend in both Photo and Designer. -
If you haven't yet, I would check out Scrivener or Ulysses. Scrivener has more features, but Ulysses is nicer to use.

Note: I'm working in Pixel persona. So I know that AD has the button to make a brush pressure-sensitive (first image). However, I want to have pressure alter opacity and/or flow, not size. So I would think that I could change it via the "More" panel (second image), specifically by setting flow jitter to pressure and size to none. However, that doesn't seem to work—pressure only ever affects size. What am I doing wrong? EDIT: I figured it out, but I'm not seeing a way to delete the topic. In case anyone else has trouble, you need to set the flow jitter to 100% and NOT press the pressure button on the main toolbar.
