Ah ok - das ist dann aber doch ganz woanders. Danke.

This is possible in Photoshop

and GIMP. Just saying.

[Point Transform Tool - duplicate + mirror]

Steps are:

1. Make a duplicate

2. Take Point Transform Tool

3. Shift and snap Origin Point with shift key down horizontally

4. Hold Shift key down to scale the copy over to the right till it snaps at 100%

5. mirror vertically ( and horizontally if needed) - done

Zeig doch mal die ausgeklappte Ebenen/Layers Liste. SVG ist nur ein Container Format wie PDF; da kann alles mögliche drin sein.

[Vektorgrafik wird teilweise als Bild exportiert]

Moin.

Achte mal bei den SVG/PDF/EPS Export-Einstellungen, dass dort unter Raster DPI:  "Nichts wird gerastert" oder so steht. Wenn allerdings irgendwelche Filter, Unschärfen oder ähnliches benutzt werden - geht es nicht ohne rastern. Das müsste dann vorher alles ausgeschaltet oder vermieden werden.

Mmh - it kinda works - but you need to flip the result vertically:

 

Maybe upload an example file of your choice.

Ah, so your "just in case" hint to the available smooth option was rather a hint to the Serif developers to remove its auto-smoothing of straight lines from its exports (… or, if needed, offer it as an export option, and maybe as as preflight check for PDF export).

Actually, no - first I was misguided by the title, which should actually be called: "Don´t export to SVG with less nodes than the original"
Then I thought the tip I once figured might be helpful for one or the other, but Affinity Designer´s export should not affect the number of nodes at all, unless it is an option like "Create small file" or "Delete redundant nodes". I don't want to be force-fed. (Ich möchte nicht zwangsgeglückt werden.)

Don´t seems you´re using the "Point Transform Tool" (F).

[Export to SVG with less nodes than original]

I absolutely dig your needs - as I said Affinity Designer is the only SVG editor in my portfolio doing this "unwanted" optimisation.

... the OP want's to keep all nodes on SVG export – not get rid of 'unnecessary' nodes or smooth a curve. Maintain complexity, not simplify it.

What is not available in Affinity Designer and which I´d call a bug because my other 5 SVG editors keep all nodes intact on subdivided straight paths on export as SVG.

Just showing how to reduce amount of nodes without loosing fidelity; though I said "just in case" .....someone needs this.

Just in case:

[Aligning nodes to the curvature of a stroke]

Ah I see: better now for me:

Ok: So the question about the appearance of the nodes in the first video still remains.

[Aligning nodes to the curvature of a stroke]

I know it´s the Node tool but why there are 2? At least I didn´t know and still don´t know we could change it. The upper Toolbar yes - but not the left one.

[Aligning nodes to the curvature of a stroke]

I´m confused by the appearance of the selected nodes and not able to recreate the behaviour from the first video:

@JimmyJack More features?

@jefferis You want to import your image and go Path->Trace Bitmap->Multicolor choose Color from the drop down - Have a good play with the settings.

This one from here:https://inkscape.org/release/1.2.1/mac-os-x/

It works on Mac/Intel or ARM - otherwise I hadn´t suggest it. Inkscape user on Mac since 2003 speaking here.

[Simple subtraction of two shapes doesn't work]

Not sure why you´re not trying by yourself. I´d say it´s working even with parametric shapes:

Inkscape.

[closed vector lines and fills?]

That ain´t gonna work in Affinity Designer. The centreline autotrace looks awful. Better do an autotrace for a color filled shape -then back in Affinity Designer go Layer->Geometry->Separate curves. Send the outer path to the background and color fill the inner shapes to your liking.

[closed vector lines and fills?]

.. or this when no fill-rule will work to fill the whole shape inside its boundaries:

Be aware that the fill between strokes will be straight and can´t be "curvy":
