  1. A swipe up or down on the Layers Studio Icon to reorder the selected layer(s) would be incredibly useful.

  3. I bought Photo on iPad, current version 1.10.5. There’s still no Move modifier. It’s an odd omission, given how well implemented it is on Designer for iPad and Designer/Photo Desktop. The Transform Origin and Transform Objects are powerful tools. But for Illustration and matte painting, the Hide Selection While Dragging is cruelly missing.
  4. I was about to tell you to de-activate Metal—it slows down performances on 1.7.x— but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the issue here. Affinity apps use the main processor intensely. CPU is the main performance factor here, more than the GPU. I'm afraid that a 2012 Core i5, with its limited amount of threads, might be in cause.
  5. Now that's exciting news! Looking forward to it.
  6. Update: Following the topic below, I deactivated Metal Compute. Even if my laptop supports it. And the problems are gone. Back to 1.6.x performances.
  7. Same here. I had massive slowdowns since 1.7, and up to 30 seconds freezes on some operations. I turned Metal compute off, and it's all gone. Back to 1.6.x better performances.
  8. Same here. Terrible performance issue on large documents, that I didn't have on 1.6.x. (OSX Mojave, MBPro 2015. Integrated GPU + Metal activated). Moving a group of layers can cause freezes for seconds. Saving a 190Mb document can take up to 10 minutes. I can't currently use it for production. Unfortunately I have to revert to 1.6.x
  9. Photo 1.7 on Desktop is also slower. I get important lags on large illustrations, that I didn't have on 1.6.x.
  10. Thx Limas. They're not on the wall—yet! It's in the making.
  11. Appreciate your feedbacks. I'll keep posting. I have a couple of making-of's that it might be interesting to share with the community. Any idea how to embed a video in a post—instead of a link to a third-party?
  12. The Save History with Document is a brilliant function, that allows to screencast and build clean making-ofs. I noticed though that there's a cap around the hundreds or so; the first steps in the list disappear progressively. On purpose?
  13. NIce one. I think you could get a better zoom-out animation, centered on your character, by going Z then ALT-click. Or even Z and drag-right.
  14. Following up with some excerpts of my collage work. It might be more abstract than the rest of this thread I'm afraid. Glad to share here. This one is enroute to screenprinting. P.
  15. Hi guys, Illustration from a summer screenprint serie. Half Affinity Designer, half Photo. The capture was made afterward, rolling the saved history backward (neat function!). Best, P. > Video Making-of Final
  16. +1 to paste in place. The most useful feature when it comes to UI design, where repetition is key.
  17. Suggestion: As the wireframe mode is going to be more useful and prevalent, I would assign the default shortcut to Y (instead of CMD-Y). And change the Transparency tool shortcut to not T, but let say O. I (color picker) and O (opacity/transparency) being close on the keyboard and close in function.
  18. The choice to make locked items selectable in wireframe mode is neat.
  19. Yes, and the shortcuts manager is very handy. ⌘⇧O not being currently assigned, we could have it pre-installed, thus aligning to the industry standard.
  20. A ⌘⇧O shortcut assigned by default to expand strokes would be neat :)
  21. Rebound on Jeff's request. In production environment, manipulations on the layers panel happen a hundred times a day. A standard layer show-up would save a lot of hassle.
  22. One have to dig into the layers panel to find the selected one, or right-click 'Reveal in layers panel' to make it show up. Why not automatizing it! Manipulations in the layers panel can be frequent. It would be a huge time saver.
