Hmm, i am not convinced about animations, or more precisely vfx. What i know, there is definitely a opportunity to make a animation software for using in mobile devices. There is literally no SW obtain in high-fidelity mobile animation. You have to use AE with Lottie or projects like Haiku.ai to do that. Or i dont know any other AE competitors at least. This could be a way to sell another software solution (or Persona) filling the hole in the market and expand the workflow of existing SW to another trendy way.

Sry, i went through that very quickly. I ve thought you suggest add this features into Personas. Probably mb. Btw, my english is terrible so...

My personal bet is they will try to get closer to Ai as much as possible instead of focusing on webdesign features. There is simply less high quality competitors in vector graphics than in webdesign/prototype branch. Design/Prototype is too much competitive field to play right now (XD, Sketch, Figma, Framer, Invision Studio, Axure, UXpin, Justinmind, Supernova Studio, ProtoPie and many others).

I guess its too feature heave weight to add into an AD. If they gonna do that (i highly doubt about it), they will create standalone app for it.

Affinity Designer wasnt meant as a webdesign solution. It should replace Illustrator, so it implies a software for creating vector graphics, not a competitor to Sketch/AdobeXD/Figma. I usually use Figma/XD for layout/content/prototyping and AD for creating illustrations etc..

This version of AD crashes more often then previous one i guess. Its usually down when i try to pick a color by color picker. Unfortunatelly, i am not able to reproduce this when i want to capture it. But its little bit annoying. Luckily i havent lost any progress due to autosave, so its not a critical issue for me. If i experience this again, i will send you that naughty .afdesign for sure

Guys, calm down. I have never said that feature with most votes should be mandatory to implement. Its a hint what community most starve for. I think the flag system i mentioned shows that the final choice is always on developers because they could flag any feature as "not planned". Are we ok?

Hi Affinity, due the huge amount of feature requests, i think it would be nice to have some voting platform like guys from webflow (https://wishlist.webflow.com/?sort=popular) or many others to give a some sort of awareness of what features community starve for the most. I think the vote system and ability to see the most wanted features could bring a little bit more clarity for community as well as developers. If you add flags like (planned, not planned, considering, in dev etc.), it could work as a kind of roadmap as well. What do you think? Tomas

It´s obvious, but why i need a template file or create it? Only difference between Photo and Designer is a checkbox "Use artboards" in creating new project and a tool in toolbar. Everything else Photo can do, so i ask: What is the reason to not have this feature allowed natively in Photo if it knows how to work with artboards? It´s absurd.I have bought both Photo and Designer, but Photo only owners needs to make a research on google how to allow artboards and find forum where is artboard teamplate or someone can say "There is no way to use artboards in Photo so fck off i will stay with Ps". Just add the checkbox to Photo and you will save a lot of time to users and you can promote this modern feature as well.

I understand you designed Photo to be one image bitmap editor, but i would definitely like to have artboards even in Photo, because i often create banner groups for ad systems like adwords andn sklik.cz (czech republic only), which means i have to make about 15 different banner compositions and i have to do them in PsCC. Affinity Designer is not a good enviroment due to lack of bitmap tools, masking etc. In case i postprocess some photo, i use artboards as well - i have 2 or 3 of them with same image but different effects and there i am able to easily compare which way is better etc. Artboards are definitely useful even in Photo. Pls, try to rethink the possibility to add them there. EDIT: I know i can create artboard file in Designer, but it´s still a workaround and people who dont need Designer needs to purchase it to be able to use artboards. Kinda weird.

It should be done for sure, as a high priority feature. Look at Blender, it´s a good piece of software but community made Blender a masterpiece thanks awesome plugins.

I would appreciate it as well since the Adobe XD is under subscription.

Oh, they have already 1.6.0 retail? Ok, i didn´t know

1.6.1.90 is a unexpected big jump in versions. Shouldn´t be this new one 1.6.0.90?

I was able to reproduce this issue only in pixel persona. If you need to move the viewport, use middle mouse + drag, its faster imo.
