Bri-Toon started following FRAME TEXT TOOL top align is not working and Purchased but not accessible

Hi AGD, Just to be sure of the possibility, might you have purchased the program for desktop years back, and then hope to open the program on iPad? I ask only because there are different licenses for the different devices. Or, did you purchase the program for iPad originally?

FRAME TEXT TOOL top align is not working
Bri-Toon replied to KCD-branding's topic in Publisher beta on Windows
Just so I understand the goal, KCD-branding, you are trying to have the text on the right side match the one on the left? It looks like the text on the left side is aligned right, and the text on the right side is aligned left. And it looks like there is also a difference in indent between the two. If you right align the second text box, and then increase the indent, does this work for what you need? -

I'm sorry. I totally missed the date. I got an email notification of this thread, which is why I assumed it was active. -

Gradient fade to transparency?
Bri-Toon replied to gumbo23's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I was thinking of suggesting what MEB suggested before he beat me to the punch, but as Walt.farrell pointed out, the goal may not be as clear as I may have thought. I am sorry you are frustrated. If you are still looking into solving the issue, then just to clarify, is this what you are trying to do? You are looking into having the bottom half of the female character smoothly fade out. Something like on a Star Wars cover. Is this correct first of all? -

Where is the auto-scroll feature for Designer for iPad?
Bri-Toon replied to Bri-Toon's topic in Affinity on iPad Questions
Thank you very much! That appeared to do the trick! -

Hi there, I was checking the forums, the online documentation, and official tutorial videos for the answer, but I cannot find the auto-scroll feature. I am looking into disabling auto-scroll, so when I click on an object, the nested layer location is not expanded. I like to have my layers nicely organized, so this is counter-intuitive for my style. Do bare with me, because I am still new to the iPad version, but so far, I think it's great.

Good old smarty pants of the forum. Haha. Nothing wrong with laughter. Well as long as there is no date as to when updates are expected, then we can assume that all are unexpected. And I respect your opinion. For me, when I realized that the latest commercial release did not bring any new features, I did notice that they heavily got involved with bug fixes. And I do recall that the amount of bugs were indeed frustrating. But I'm just telling you what I noticed. It's what ever works for you.

I am certainly interested to see what progress Designer makes in future updates. In my opinion, Photo and Publisher have a lot more developed and seem to be more of a primary focus. And of course, I can understand that the suite as a whole can get piled up with other priorities. I get it. Just saying that as a lover of the first Affinity application, I can agree with the points in the original post, and I look forward to any unexpected surprises.

If not paid careful attention to the settings of Flood Fill Tool before making flood fills, the program can take a long time to respond because of accidentally covering up the whole document. I had to force quit the program about 4 or 5 times. For example, there can be pixels very close together but with gap space you care barely notice. There can be a source setting saying "Current Layer" whereas I may forget to set it to "Layers Beneath." And I can some times be on the wrong layer. So if I overlook one of these options, the program stops responding, and then the next best thing to do is to restart it, and that can really get frustrating. And so an idea that I thought of is to have a dialogue that pops up that can detect how large the flood fill will be after an action is made, and it can say something like, "This action may take a long time for the program to respond. Do you wish to continue?" What do you think of this idea? Joke:

Pencil Tool Feature Requests (iPad and Desktop)
Bri-Toon replied to a topic in Feedback for Affinity Designer on Desktop
My apologies. It appears that I am late to respond to this tag. So at the time of me posting that, that was originally the case. However, Designer 1.7 introduced the "Sculpt" mode for the Pencil Tool. This can do what you are requesting in suggestion 1 and 2. For 3, it is a little tricky since you do not close a path the same way as in Illustrator. You have to kind of redraw both ends as you connect them for them to close properly. And for 4, yes, I agree that can be frustrating. There may not be a way to reduce nodes in a fashion that does not reform the shape too much, but there are two things I can suggest. One: You can start off drawing the shapes with the brush stabilizers. They allow a drawing mode in which you pull on a string to reduce shaky hand movements. It may or may not give you the result you are looking for, but it does give more precision, which I like. Two: After the shapes are drawn, you can use the "Transform Mode" of the Node Tool to transform nodes; not shapes. This means resizing, skewing, repositioning, and rotating. I understand this does not reduce nodes, but what this can do is map out your ideal shape before you start removing them. Seeing how we are talking about the Pencil Tool, I hope it is not invading your topic to explain what I want. Something that I personally want more than anything for that tool is a way to toggle post-correction. I would like a feature that allows the user to decide how much a line is corrected after drawn or even have the ability to toggle it off. -
Oh thanks for the tip. That makes sense. I was assuming that checking off that option would apply to the whole object but apparently each appearance. For some reason, that did not occur to me. Yeah I feel like some default or "Apply to all" feature would benefit in this case. A grouped object can have a lot to uncheck. But hey, I think this gives me an idea of what to request for in another topic for Designer's new "Select Object" and "Select All" feature; since the staff said they are open to requests in that area.
