  1. Hello, 

    I have bought Affinity Photo, Desinger on my Macbook pro, Now i'm on windows. I've purchased Affinity Designer but want to buy Affinity Photo for windows too.. Is there any near future plans for any discount? I"m browsing Affinity store almost trice daily for around a month ... looking for any discount if you guys are offering. 

    I googled and found some promo codes, but I dont' see any place where I can put those promos... 

    Please help me regarding this. 

    Thank you

    If you are on Windows instead of holding ⌃(ctrl), press and hold the right-mouse button (while still keeping the left-mouse down for drawing the selection marquee).

    Thank you MEB.. That works great!. 

    I wish such hidden thing be more obvious!. (never pressed such button combination in any of other graphics software). I doubt how would I press both buttons on my laptop's touch pad!. 

    Well shouldn't it be in Actually "ctrl" button or maybe option/alt button. ? 

     

     

  3. Hello,

    If there are multiple shapes selected, and all are divided all at once, a number of overlapped content is removed and a lot of garbage nodes are left as separate paths. I've experienced on AI too, but there we can easily select them and remove them, but in AD it becomes a headache.  

    Can you please make selection in such a way that..

    if selection started form top left / bottom left then select all shapes touching selection box,

    if selection started form top right / bottom right  then select only shapes, fully under selection box,

    Something same like in Auto-cad (somebody experienced?) 

    Please take a look on this video and see what I mean. 

    vertics, devide tool, shape tool, pen tool, garbage nodes, paths,

  4. Hello, 

    I've been facing this issue for around a year, I was thinking to post it, but may be somebody didn't notice and still exists. 

    If you press space while drawing any shape, that let's you re-position the shape without confirming the shaping with releasing mouse.  This is a great feature in PS and in AD too.. I have seen in AP too but there it has some issue too. 

    Please take a look at video (screen recording) I did it for a quick demo. If i dont' press the  space, I can't relocate my shape before final mouse release, and If do, the shape starts snapping in some angle (0, 45, 90) and so on. I've even turned off snapping.  Kindly disable all snapping when "snapping is turned off" and specially which space bar.. or add it on later moving with mouse with combination of Ctrl, or shift.

     

    Thank you. 

     

  5. Hello sir, 

    I just downloaded the updated version of Affinity. I had been working on Inkscape for some logos. I've a small canvas of 256 x 256 pixels. All referenced stuff is on the page but not on printable area..

    So I thought let's try this on Affinity Publisher.  I opened SVG made in inkscape into Affinity Publisher. So everything out of the printable area was hidden vertically. but visible Only horizontally. 

    May be I am using the wrong apps that Affinity is not for such stuff.. but what if I"m working on small Visiting Cards with small fixed size of canvas and a lot of content on the page. I need to put on the document for references.  Secondly if i'm zoomed out enough that  the whole page is visible, PAN tool doesn't work. For the both issues I've made a screen recording. Please take a look... Am i doing something wrong of it is actually a bug.

    Thank you.

  6. I am using windows 10 with a GPu Nvidia 870 I don’t think there is anything related to fonts settings in the control panel or anywhere.  if this could be the case then why Adobe is showing the fonts  very smooth  but not the affinity. is there any option that could we can change the application level fonts. 

     By the way which font  affinity is using for user interface , maybe my system is missing that specific font so that’s why this pixelation  is appearing ? 

     This is so then this shouldn’t be installed by the application by itself ?

  7. Finally we got it what we've been waiting for.. Thank you Affinity. 

    On the first start I found some visually issues. Like the UI font's are too pixelated in windows 10. I've used both AP and AD on mac, but downloaded this Publisher on Windows as trial. 

    please check the screenshot I attached, the left is Photoshop and on the right Publisher.

    I didn't check any performance or functional thing. this was the first thing I found apparently

  10. I had created in may be 1.5.2 or something. (the app store version)... that worked great even in my last beta.  But now when ...

    1. I open it
    2. edit something.. (even create a new layer)
    3. save it

     

    it crashes showing an error "

    Failed to save document: IMG_3693

    Save failed because access to the file was lost.
    The document must now be closed.

     

    Please see the attached screenshot of error and an animated video showing process.

  11. There's a dropdown list on the Context toolbar, allowing you to choose 'Original Ratio', '1:1' or any of various other options, but unfortunately it resets to the default 'Unconstrained' mode every time you reselect the Crop Tool. :(

    if selection can be controlled proportionally, or from center or origin using "KEYBOARD" by holding "CMD, ALT, SHIFT OR CONTROL" please also enable crop tool with these keyboard shortcuts. Thankyou

  12. is there any way to apply constraints width & height or center in scaling canvas... using keyboard i.e press and hold command/alt  ? 

     

    press "C" and you get canvas scale options.

     

     

    Also please, is it possible to cancel it by pressing "Esc" .. or even if there is any option in keyboard shortcuts to cancel current action by pressing esc instead of "cmd+z/ ctrl+z". because esc terminates the action and ctrl does and undoes the whole calculations. 

  13. scrollbars on layers are also so irritating..

     

     

    please watch following video i uploaded on youtube. 

    https://youtu.be/Nej6vH_zlWs 

     

    I added many layers, now when I scroll them up or down, a scrollbar appears on layers and that takes a second to hide. that also causes interruption what layer we needed to click. because one accident click on scrollbar will move/scroll layers upwards or downwards.
