Ah, cool thanks for the help about moving one layer on top of the other. Works perfect! I knew there had to be an easy way, I just couldn't figure out what it was.

I figured it out! It's the "insert inside selection tool".

Hello, I'm a newbie to Affinity designer, and pretty much any vector design, so this may be quite obvious. I have made an object, and want to draw more stuff on that object. However, I want everything I draw to be automatically cut off at the edge of the main object, so that no marks stray out of it's bounds. I have been able to accomplish this by duplicating the object, then making that duplicate a mask for the things inside the main object. Is there a way I can just make the main object a "mask", but also show it? Right now if I make it a mask, it dissapears. Thanks for the help!

Hi The Assurer I uninstalled it and am still getting the same error. I tried to download it from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145but unfortunate this version is below the one used in affinity designer. (It's 14.0.23XXX vs what is needed 14.0.24XXX)

When installing I get this error: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" vc_runtimeMinimum_x64.msi is the name of the file it can't find. I attached the screenshot. I'm on windows 7 with Visual Studio Community installed. I tried manually installing VC++ 2015 and it said it's already installed.
