Hi, on the desktop you can do this to hold Option/alt key and move 1 handle to change the curve from that node.
How to do this on the iPad?
Thanks,
Olaf

Hi,
My export files seems like they have jpeg compression, they are not sharp.
First I tought it was Instagram who did extra compression or gmail.
But the original files on the HD are not good.
So something goes wrong with the export.
It's vector fom Designer.
And I need an export for web.
What are the best PNG settings?
are what's going wrong?
Thnx.

Hi,
I'm going from AI to Designer.
In Illustrator you press SHIFT to get 100% horizontal & vertical handels when dragging .
Is this possible in Designer?
Thnx for the help.

Hi Olaf,
There's already plans to implement a offset tool later, meanwhile one way to get a similar effect is to use the stroke width of a duplicate object to create the offset. To do this duplicate the object you want to offset and give the duplicate a large stroke (this "defines" the offset value).
If you want/need to convert the boundaries of the stroke (of the duplicate) into separate shapes, select the stroke, go to menu Layer ▸ Expand Stroke (currently this command adds superfluous nodes - this should also be improved later), then Layer ▸ Geometry ▸ Divide.
Hi
thnx!!

Hi Olaf Rubens,
Select the Node Tool, click on one of the nodes, go to the context toolbar and press the Break Curve button (you can assign a custom shortcut to this action in the Preferences). Do the same for the other node. Now you can select just the segment and delete it.
thank you :-)

Hi Olaf Rubens,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
There's no easy way to solve this in Designer yet. If you were working only with fills, i would say to change the Layer ▸ Fill Mode to Winding (Non Zero), but it will not work for strokes.
So what i suggest is to duplicate the object, delete all nodes of the duplicate around the overlapping areas keeping just a section covering the "hole" (the yellow area in my example below), then perform an add boolean operation between the original and the duplicate.
and on the same letter, what's the fastest way to remove/cut a line between nodes?
thanks.

Hi thanks!
This will do the trick for now, and for the lines I can duplicate and move to back.
I hope you guys do a "unite pathfinder" that's a lifesaver :-)
