  1. I suggest you try it on your own, e.g. by installing Portable Apps and there Gimp. This way it is not intrusive to your computer at all. I did use Gimp in the past occasionally and did not like it. The newer version looks better but doubt that the use of Gimp comes close to what you can do with APh. I do not want to davalue Gimp. I just thing it is still very different to Affinity. d.
  2. Hello @JenOM-1, I support @Komatös' advice, look into masks. There is a good basic tutorial on YouTube (by Affinity) that should you get starting: d.
  3. I said 'not too bad' and not 'is equivalent'. And I agree it is not a simple F4 but it can be useful in many scenarios. And I am aware that the OP asked for a true repeat command. I perhaps first should have stated that this is not possible. d.
  4. Well, hitting ENTER is not too bad 😉 d.
  5. Above procedure should work with seperate images. You also can enter percentages for width and height. I am not aware that there is something like this to rename layers. You always can copy and paste names, though, and edit if there is the need to. d.
  6. Hello @CaroleA, basically yes. It just works different like in Adobe Products. There is no menu entry. First: select an object, hit 'Enter' and you are presented with a dialogue that lets you move, scale, rotate and duplicate this object. Enter your desired values and press OK. There is a preview option, too. Second: select the next object you want to transform the same way. Hit 'Enter' and at the top check 'Previous Stettings'. This will recall the settings from the first transformation and by clicking OK you achieve exactly the same transformation as before. d.
  7. Glad my post was helpful. Thankyou. Have a nice weekend. d.
  8. @Return, thanks. translation German/English may be a source for the confusion. 'Ebene' in German refers to the same two things: 'level' and 'layer'. But I do not understand your second posting. Did you mix up threads? d.
  9. Hello @street79, first off, you are using the term 'level'. Maybe this is a mistake by a translation software or somewhere else. We (I) are speaking of layers. I assume you mean the same? layer with a small 'l' is basically a single vector object in itself. It is not a layer with an object in it. This terminology sometimes causes confusion. layer is just another word for object in the Affinity world. Layer with a capital 'L' is a container that is somewhat similar to a group. But it can be used in a different way. Most importantly you can immediately select an object in a Layer by clicking on it, while by clicking on an object inside a group you will select the entire group. To make things more complicated or flexible - it depends on how you see it - everything can be a child of anything else. You can have unlimited levels of nested layers and Layers and/or groups. This gives you a lot of organisational freedom ... or confusion I hope this makes things a little clearer. d.
  10. Basically every vector object or pixel layer is a layer in the Affinities. Then there are special Layers that are 'empty' and can be used for organizing the structure. They also can be seen as containers. Perhaps 'layers' should better be called objects. See this article that I think explaines it nicely: Understanding groups and layers in Affinity - Affinity Spotlight d.
  11. Hello @Bafi and welcome to the forums. The blue line you see and that does not export is most likely just a technical border indicating the size of the text frame. It also vanishes if you click off the frame. It indicates that this is the object you acutally selected. If you want to give the text frame a border (or filling) you have to open the Text Frame panel. You can find this in the menu under 'Window > Text' (I'm not at my computer right now I might be wrong). There is also an icon on the toolbar. See the help topic here: Affinity Publisher 2 Help At the top of the Text Frame panel you can a stroke colour and its width. d.
  12. Personaly I do not insist. I am interested. Some kind of management of digital assets within Affinity apps themself to me looks more logical than an e.g. video editing app. With asset management and font management inside the apps we already have basic functionality. Content packs can be synchronized online. The missing link is an app or web app that integrates all of these. d.
  13. Hi @KC Honie, may I ask where you get this information from ('made it clear')? From my knowledge there was a DAM development going on some time ago: But I never read a statement by Serif that they will never release a Digital Asset Management (DAM). Of course I may have missed such a statement. I am curious and interested to get more information on this topic. Thanks. d.
  14. Thanks. The joke is a little hidden, but by reading @PaoloT's post again I can see some irony. d.
  15. How can one make lots of money in competition with a free and very powerfull and well developed software like Davinci Resolve? d.
