Turn off antialiasing
Kiori replied to Ethernaut's topic in Feedback for the V1 Affinity Suite of Products
Hey @MattP if you're looking for things to work on after this feature, try looking here and here, I'm sure there are others that complement workflow of actual content creation. There are other suggestions here and here, that would actually make affinity a competitor to serious art software like clip studio paint, but maybe affinity considers these things outside of their scope. Thanks for caring and adding this feature, I thought this would never happen. 😉👍- 65 replies

Straight tools when holding shift
Kiori replied to shushustorm's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
The current shift+ click solution need a live preview also, like any other tool of it's kind. -

The 2 deal brakers if you are a game artist are the wrap around mode, and the fact that there is no proper, sort of pixel perfect, way to turn off anti-aliasing. Which means you can't use shape tools or anything other than the pencil tool for pixel art. Serif is so short sighted and so anti-artist(real artist, not "designers"), that it's overall appalling at times. Specially considering that the polish of the software. As long as affinity doesn't have these, I might as well use any other art software. Also, keep an eye on this request.

The new AD/AP 1.7 has lots of cool new features, unfortunately this wasn't included. Why? No love for pixel artists?- 65 replies

[AD] Vector shape(mask) from raster(paint)
Kiori replied to Kiori's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
Thanks for the reply. I believe it's the the pixel to vector. What i imagined is i'd draw something, and then have it become a 'shape', that would speed up the creation of complex shapes. So let's say i create an odd 7 point star, with some points larger than others, then i select the figure, click somewhere and my selection becomes a shape on its own right, with proper edges, etc. And I'll 'symbol' it for later use. Or ideally it should just see what's painted vs whats not, say if the figure is black and it's the only thing painted on the canvas. Probably you guys can come up with some genius workflow for this, as you've done before. -

[AD] Vector shape(mask) from raster(paint)
Kiori posted a topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
The idea is to have a feature where a painted area is used as a reference for a closed vector shape to be created. In a sense it's like 'create a mask from selection', but the idea is that the result will be a vector shape a curve, and not just a raster mask. Also, ideally you would have to select anything it would just create the shape based on whats painted on screen vs. whats not painted. This could speed up the creation of complex shapes without needing the pen tool or a vector brush, depending. As far as I'm aware, currently, there is no way to create vector from raster. -
I would be great if when using the brush, as soon as you held shift, it would preview a line leading to the brush tip, in order for you to visualize where the new straight line will be placed, when you click. Ideally helper rulers would also be activated and snapping, this could help when drawing straight connected shapes. Regardless of that, it would a great feature to have. If you want a program that offers this feature as an example, check clip studio paint. I hope to see this in AP also, in the future.

Turn off antialiasing
Kiori replied to Ethernaut's topic in Feedback for the V1 Affinity Suite of Products
For me either on AP or AD, the reason i don't do my pixel art in them is because you cant turn AA off, so for instance if i create a circle shape or a line shape depending. Or any of the other examples people mentioned it will go the AA route and ruin it. Currently i use Clip Studio Paint for Pixel work, which has shape tools and works great all in all. I hope affinity implements a proper pixel toolset/way to draw anything in the software without AA.(or as people noted, with many AA options, including off)- 65 replies

[APh] Frame By Frame Animation
Kiori replied to segovo's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on Desktop
Animation is a great feature to have for an art program. Krita really stands as an example of what features such programs should have. It's great to be able to re-draw a frame and see the results immediately. Affinity Photo However is a Photo editing program, nothing else. I hope one day they do make Affinity Painter, or something of a sort. But the fact is that designers have taken over the content industry and real artists are mostly ignored by major companies these days. Honestly Adobe is mostly to blame since it blatantly favors designers, Photoshop sucks for art.- 15 replies

As further feedback to my own post, the selection brush tool can be used as a much higher end floor select in AD, and I'm getting used to the color picker not having it's own icon.(on alt press) Still think the perspective grids and snapping could be could but have been getting around it the old way, plus using vector tools.

Brush resize and hardness with Ctrl + Alt
Kiori replied to Novak's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
I thought this feature didn't exist, until i found a video on it. There are an awful lot of features that are hard to find for newcomers. Maybe the affinity guys should do a affinity for Photoshop users video. I would have never guessed the right mouse button was ctrl. Also, it would be great if there was a way to change these combo keys.(not hard coded) Now, I have a different solution to this problem, instead of a third party app, i simply used wacom's app to set things in the express keys and the pen. This is my setup currently: deactivating windows ink is fundamental for right click to work. Also, on screen keyboard in the express keys wasn't needed you can replace it for whatnot. The first image is the pen options, I substituted pan/drag for space keystroke. With this setup everything works as intended. Also, I added Photo as a special case in the app instead of modifying the general setup. Thanks guys, love the software! Ps: it seems i can't upload content, I had to use postimage, why is that? -
Most companies that support Linux choose one, namely Ubuntu and stick with it. Also, apps can be distributed in linux-unversal formats, so this is a lot less of a deal than it seems.

Flood select is part of an art workflow, it's a basic tool and could be included in AD. When you press alt in almost every painting program you activate the color picker, it would be good if when you held alt it changed the icon so we knew the color picker is going to be active. In fact maybe pressing alt on it's own should activate the magnifying glass directly, overall alt+ drag is a drag if you pick colors a lot. Also, both AD and AP could use manually(non-horizontal/vertical guides) positioned guides or preferably proper helpers with vanishing points, for architectural art and design.(Perspective tooling for pixel and vector) Last but not least, it would be good if brush strokes(vector and pixel) could snap to anything.(guides, grids, etc) Maybe this could be a on/off option in the snap menu. Currently the only drawing tool that does this is the pen tool.(as far as I'm aware) Btw love the way guides are handled and color picker's zoom!
