  1. Oh my god! Will that work?? I am at work but will try that when I get home. I will be so grateful if it does!
  2. I love macros. I used to really enjoy writing them on Photoshop but the ones in Affinity Photo have major functionality options missing and I like to list them here and hope Might be possible to get some or all of them added. Firstly I wish I could add keyboard shortcuts to run macros. There are many macros that I create I would like to be able to run very quickly via the keyboard. The ability to add menu items to a macro as it is running. This is a fantastic feature in Photoshop that really broadens the scope of writing abilities for macros. The ability to stop a macro while it is running and ask for a user input. This is the least urgent in my opinion. If we can get the first two it would broaden the usability incredibly. Thanks and let me know if I missing something and if any of these are already possible. Phil
  3. Ah, that's interesting. I also discovered that, if I create my curves adjustment layer then select all and hit Delete that works too. If I don't select all it deletes the adjustment layer.
  4. Unless I'm doing something wrong that seems to take a lot longer. My workflow tends to go along the lines of – choose a curves adjustment layer, adjust it, flood the adjustment layer mask with black to make it all disappear and then paint in the areas that I want to be lighter or darker with white. When I hit shift and F5 it comes up with the fill dialogue box but it's always set to white so then I have to go and change that. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks very much, Phil
  5. Just noticed how pixelated the coluds are. Will need to create them in a vector way…
  6. Jut a first attempt using some of your elements…
  7. Hi all, on Photoshop, if I hit Ctrl+Del it will fill the whole canvas with the foreground color, Alt+del fills with the bg color. This is a feature I used all the time but now flood filling with a color is a relatively time consuming effort. The reason I use it is that I create an adjustment layer that I want to affect only a small area so then I have to check that my swatches are correctly set, get the fill tool and fill it with black. Am I missing something or is this just a feature I need to be requesting? Thanks, Phil
  8. You're very welcojme. Thank you for inspiring me. I nly wish I could draw. It would sure make this whole thing easier!
  9. oOO, i LIKE THE ADDITION OF BLUE. lOOKS ALMOST LIKE selenium (excuse the caps lock. I had it on and can't be bothered to go back and correct it!)
  10. Why oh why do so many people feel the need to be so aggressive and threatening in their requests demands for features? I very much doubt that being so unpleasant to what is a very responsive company which sells its really good products at amazing prices is going to cause them to drop everything and add your requested demanded feature. What was that saying about honey and vinegar?
  11. Here's a first attempt. It's not easy but it is fun! Also a good way to learn all the shortcuts and techniques. Thanks for the inspiration. Have you considered exhibiting these? You might find you have a market. They're very unusual!
  12. This one is magical too. I want to steal your idea and see if I can do something similar but inverted as in based on a white theme. Inspiring work!
  13. Ooh, I like this one very much. Looks like a water droplet upside down or something.
  14. There are some in this country though I guess they are more bars that serve coffee!
  15. These are very interesting. Really nice work. One thing, are they really 'lightning Exploration' or did you mean lighting?
  16. JUST who I was thinking of though, to be fair, I am pretty much always thinking of David Mitchell!
  17. Really? That's very interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks for the knowledge! I just see Americans doing it all the time and it has bugged me no end (or 'to' no end, as they would say!) but now I will have to become someone who couldn't care less (or could care less as Americans WRONGLY put it!!!)
  18. I think a client would pick you up on putting the $ sign after the number when it should be before. Other than that I love the layout. I love the flow of the colored boxes!
  19. Cor blimey. I can't wait for Affinity Designer to catch up to DP in these ways. In so many ways AD is so much better but damn, we need those too! I still use PagePlus as I have since 1994 and can't wait for Publisher to come out!
  20. They did? I had the last edition of DrawPlus and I don't remember that. Interesting. Maybe I need to reinstall!
  21. That's basically what I was going to say but more elegantly put! One of the main things I miss from using Corel Draw is a fill tool which works exactly like a fill tool in Photoshop or some other raster program but creates a vector shape. You would still have to close (or at least overlap) those lines to create a closed space but Corel does not need it to be an actual single item. You just click inside and it fills it with a shape with a fill. I really wish that serif could implement this for us.
