But what about us buying them out ???
Half an hour ago I thought the same. Serif bought Adobe and now, the Serif of Nothingem is in charge to decide -- which Adobe apps will be executed and which will be spared.

I think switching to a subscription only model would break their neck.
Usually, companies that have no new ideas to offer, accept the subscription model.

Place a 1bit tiff image.
As said long time ago Affinity do not plan to do it. So, the work arround, until they add bitmap trace, is to trace it in Inkscape and use it as a vector object.

Aren't they integrated enough? You can even open one of the apps inside another of the apps. And the file format is the same for all of them.
The integration can be even better if they:
- make Preferences common for all 3 apps with separate sections for apps specific preferences;
- if you can drag & drop objects between apps;
- allow common swatches, object styles, text styles...
- Boldlinedesign, saradhi and PaulEC

And shouldn't it be in the iPad related forum and not for desktop?

Well, all Affinity apps or on iPad too, as you know. So, this is just an info for potential new buyers of iPad M2 to decide whether to buy it or not.

Also, Affinity is fully packaged and supports multiple languages. The help system embedded in Affinity Photo 1.10.5 on macOS is 130.6 MB, double the size of the entire PhotoLine app. I think it's more important to have a great help system that is available offline than it is to reduce the file size.
I developed software in the old days and we had to keep things small because we distributed it on floppies and the app had to run in very limited memory. If I was building those apps now I wouldn't worry at all about file size.
Hey, I didn't say anything against Affinity. All of this was about the apps sizes.

There is still a good reason for Affinity to define more default shortcuts for frequently used toggles/operations
It will be even better if they offer ID and QXP shortcuts for the users familiar with these apps.

Hi,
One of the most awful things in InDesign is how style names are changed in a book made of multiple documents: one by one, per each document.
It would be great if Publisher allowed a faster way to do this on a book basis. Keep the styles in sync in all the documents/chapters making a book, and allow batch-renaming of a style in all the documents/chapter with a single command.

Lets first see if Affinity will offer this feature in v.2. There is not such a feature in v.1, yet.

And costs twice as much as Affinity Designer (last time I checked), and where the purchase fee covers only 1 year of maintenance.
No, you are wrong. It is even cheaper than Designer because for $100 you get 2 licences -- for Windows and Mac.

XDP, in part due to the speed it affords for the simple illustrations I make.
A long time ago XDP was cumbersome with CMYK files. Is there anything new in that field?
I, also, thought you will mention Vector Styler.

I prefer any of the other 3 vector design applications I use daily.
And they are (and why)?

There is also Viva Designer
They are very long on v.10. Maybe they are dead not Affinity?

Affinity will be alive untill they resist something like this:

As it is I will try Walt's idea of three different stylings for three different lengths of quote.
Why don't you try using a table to see if it is a right way to you?

The real resolution of the image is its size in pixels, not the DPI value.

Does it work then? Have you tried and can show a result?
I know how I would use it if there is such an option.

I would not do that.
At least, we agree that something like this is need it and how you will use it is up to your liking.

–> But now quotation, the next paragraph/style, pulls chapter down by its baseline grid if chapter is set to respect baseline (where actually none should exist in the frame according this grid start setting) …:Well, you'll have to do some math and adjustments, as well.

I wonder how this might work independently, guess it would require a different concept of leading where paragraphs do not depend on / refer to others but the frame only?
Let say, something like this:
Heading -- space from top margin = 0 mm
Subheading -- space from top margin = 15 mm
QuoteSubheading -- space from top margin = 40 mm
Body Text - no indent -- space from top margin = 70 mm
Body Text -- space from top margin = 0 mm (means it starts immediately after the previous paragraph which is in this case Body text - no indent)and after that everything works as it works now.
