Hi, is there any news from V2.x regarding the roughening lines function mentioned above?
-
Better late than never: Thank you all.
Your input helped me to understand the "operation method" of AF Designer (1 + 2) and my individual needs when working with sketchy lines.

@NotMyFault Thanks to your method, I am able to create the desired look. Even if it's more time consuming and with less individualisation options than the original function in Illustrator. Thank you!

Dear all,
for architecture presentations and documents it is common to use sketches or sketchy looking drawings. You can find bunches of examples by searching for "architecture hand sketches" in the web.
So far I used Illustrator to produce this type of drawings. To create this specific look you can transform straight lines into sketchy lines just by a simple effect (Effect > Distort & Transform > Roughen). Attached you can find an example. This effect works not only for lines but for vector objects in general. The good thing is that this effect doesn't change the object nodes; no additional nodes will be added. This makes it comfortable to use.
Unfortunately, I did not find a similar effect in AF Designer. Even the web didn't give me any tipp how to do so. Instead of that I just found a topic from another guy asking for sketchy lines in general, but his problem seems also not to be solved yet: forum.affinity.serif.com > Topic 146665 > sketchy-lines-in-af-designer/
Is there an similar effect in AF Designer, which I have not found? If not, what is the chance that a solution will be developed in the near future?
Thank you in advanced.

@loukash Thanks for your response.
What a pitty that this essential tool is still not implemented; even in V2.
