When I export a file with no background to .png format, why do I end up with a png that has a bright blue background? The AP file has an imported vector image with transparent background. I've attached the AFP file.

Have some 6pt line segments about 5" long that I'd like to 'bevel' the ends (about 1" from end) from 6pt down to about 1pt towards the end of each line on one end. Is this doable with Affinity? I know I can do in Illustrator with help of Astute plugin, but I'd like to be able to use Affinity... (much easier to use than Ily IMO). ???

New to AD... and really luvit. Lost my layers panel... can't find anywhere nor an option to display in the view menu. Bag this request.... just found out how to...

How come none of my PS plugins work? They're viewable in the dropdown menu bar, but none seem to work. Alien Skin does nothing; Versus does nothing; Topaz gives me a message to contact them... ??? Thanks!

Is it possible to mask backgrounds of images in Affinity Designer? If so, is there a tutorial available?

Need to mask out a background that has a hue very close to edge of foreground object. Any 'easy' way to do this? Are there any tut's on background masking? Fairly easy with PS, so I'm assuming it's easier with Affinity? Thanks in advance.
