Would be cool when creating invoices to be able to build QR-Codes for Sepa credit Transfers.

Compound mask on top + turning the Grayscale Layer into a Mask is all that is needed. at least that still works with 100% (White) and 0% (Black ) Masks. I use that for Gamedev.

probably this one,from 2021 has a similar zooming included. the magic starts at ~1.58Minutes in.

Yeah it is a bit older (2014 to be precise) but here it is showcasing the 1,000,000 zoom in Affinity Designer 1,000,000 zoom in Affinity Designer #BecauseWeCan.mp4

Here is the relevant part of their trailer. Was quite an intriguing idea/tool. Made with Mischief_trailer-infinite zoom.mp4 Concepts looks interesting.

Yeah, the insides need to be filled or it wont work. I just edited the Stroke settings and used different joins. Align Stroke to Centre, Align Stroke to Outside will break the recognition (tested with Google Lens)

On win 11, I can´t create a category while creating a preset. Styling wise while keeping the QR mode intact (not converting) you can do some subtle changes to the shape.

you linked to the scripting page, this one is the Linux page;

The official Reference Page is relevant for far more people even without them ever directly making movies. For example software makers of 2D Applications like the Affinity Suite. Thankfully last year in August Ocio V2 support was added to the Affinity suite.

Hello Ash and Team, thank you for keeping discussions open! that move sparks confidence. Massive kudos for that even if it gives v2 release flashbacks. The multiple bought licenses where purchased only because of the perpetual licensing. ps: It would be great if we could get offline activateable licenses for V2.

Rule of Thumb; Communications about such a topic should not be done here but anywhere else.

There are incremental x64 app translations as well as fully native ARM builds. Starting as a fully emulated x64 workload After recompiling the most CPU-intensive parts as Arm64EC After continuing to recompile more x64 modules over time Ending result of a fully native Arm64EC app Apparently users can get a glimpse if the applications main executable is partial or fully using ARM64EC by looking into the Task Manager https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/arm/arm64ec

https://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/x264-devel/2010-July/007508.html MPEG-LA's fees are zero for the first 100,000 units, 20 cents per unit until 5 million, and 10 cents beyond that, capping at around $5m per year. and here is a thing; depending on how the user downloads those files, it is completely legal (for you as the developer). Similar distribution and linking rules applies to Blender GPL and plugins.

ah okay,that is of course a valid take I forgot.

If I want to deploy my self written software to various platforms, while using modern development tools, I just select the accompanying export preset and after a compile, it is done... But who knows how Serif works or what tools they use to make their software. FFmpeg has figured that out and reverse engineered those codecs making it 100% legal.

Here this is the official provided paths to learn the programs which are covered by the Affinity V2 Universal License. https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/learn/ Official Certification or Authorized Tutorial Maker are in my opinion Badges of maximum Cringe, similar to bought blue check marks on certain social media.

Thanks for sharing your viewpoint, it is interesting to read it. I wish you well and when you visit a coffee shop to make business decisions on the customers which go there, a good latte. EDIT No sarcasm was meant in the above text. I bought the Steam Deck and was pleasantly surprised to be able to start up many beloved and used programs like Davinci Resolve among a 3D Application and other programs on it. As always depending on the use cases, Linux can be a viable solution.

Two years is a lot in the tech world. Depending on the product and wanted perceived image, you will deliberately do stuff which will be seen as gobsmackingly stupid for the outside world. Aiming for specific target groups is nothing new. According to the Steamsurvey; Windows has over 96% of users (of ~500 Million customers) Serif decided that it would help to cater first to the tiny minuscule less than 2% OSX crowd.

Vectorartwork experiment. Two diamond shapes with just two solid colours,some FX and a couple Live Filters. Moving or recolouring one of those shapes takes a couple seconds for the UI refresh. Edit: here is the used Layerstack.

uhm, why use such old Data when the user statistics can always be taken directly from the source which gives newer data too? https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam steady gains with statistics from one month ago, December 2023: 1.97% for Linux 1.63% for OSX 96.4% for Windows For Games, the market is being build up by Valve/Steam with the sale of its portable PC/Console, the Steam Deck and its newest revision. Quite a neat portable system, Arc Linux running on it. With Proton + Wine, you can besides Linux stuff use quite a lot of Windows based Games and Software on it.

Rebelle has since v5 AI included for upscaling your works (because all those simulations are resource hungry and up-scaling the result with AI is less taxing), its called NanoPixel technology. AI can be helpful if it´s used as an aid to overcome technical mishaps like fixing a too small set canvas or aiding in masking out flying hair etc.

The Treachery of Images a 1929 painting from René Magritte This is not a Pipe is written underneath I upscaled it 4X with AI, It is still not a pipe, you can´t use the image on your end (phone,tablet/pc screen etc) as a pipe. AI upscaling can sometimes fail and distorts results. As with every other technology, to AI it applies too; it is best to be wary of using AI without vetting the results with the original data. I am eager to know what AI systems Serif has vaguely said will come.

I agree, best would be a DAM which keeps the folder/file structure intact and shows "unknown" files as is. only other solution I know of is the file manager XYplorer but thats usually coupled with a lot of scripting and elbow grease to make it do what you need. https://www.xyplorer.com/index.php https://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?t=18442
