I think it looks already pretty good:
Do know a good method to add a bit of light on the top and on the side:
I have tried to add a second fill to that 2 shapes, but it changed the whole color and not only the edge
-
How can I use the black shape to make the same area of another shape transparent like @Old Bruce did in his example?

Hello again
thank you for your input. I have tried to do the same (duplicating the lines, merging to a closed curve). But when I apply the Fill tool, it doesn't fill the inside. There are two red dots. What I am doing wrong?:
Thank you,
Thomas
/Edit:
I got it, I need to use the tool "join curves" after selecting the merged curves. 🙂

Hi guys!
Only a solution FROM AutoCAD DXF TO Affinity Designer!!
I have tested some workflows (also the suggested workflows here in the forum thread with inscape, eps, etc all bad results), but finally I have found a useful solution:
not sure if you have tested this, for me it was the best way from a Revit 3D Model to a 2D Vector in Affinity Designer:
- Place the 3D Revit View on a sheet
- export the sheet as dxf 2013 (check keep overlapping lines in the export options)
- open the dxf with AutoCAD and delete what you don't need
- select all lines you want to have in Affinity Designer and make CTRL+C
- open Affinity Designer and CTRL+V
- changed the stroke color of all lines to black
I have merged all layers in AutoCAD to Layer 0, but I think that is not necessary.
I have attached the result as SVG file. Pretty good, mh? 🙂
Best,
Thomas

Hi all,
I am a new Affinity Design user. I try to recreate a logo with vectors for a website (no pixel - I want to export as SVG). I have managed to draw all strokes and it worked pretty well. Now I try to fill the single shapes with different linear gradient fills.
Something like this is the goal for the blue gradient fills:
At the moment I have this (I know the areas have no closed curves, but some areas sharing a single curve):
How can I create single areas to apply the gradient fills?
Thank you,
Thomas
