It's bumping time!
Can we please have a:
I've started mentioning this feature back in 2016!
Without it we're still stuck using Photoshop for many types of mockups. There's already a perspective filter, and the whole Liquify persona as a live filter!
Thanks!

adi_cataleya reacted to Greyfox in Designer b-splines and arc tool
Nice as Affinity Designer is, after years of working with DrawPlus, I'm finding it hard to make the change to the newer Affinity product.
Today a simple task, to change an old bitmap logo to a vector based one. Right from the outset, I couldn't find a b-spline tool . Spent some time on line searching, and it seems some of the coding for it has been in the product for a few years, but it has never been activated. Each year people have asked about when a b-spline tool would be available, but as far as I can see, there has never been a positive commitment. So here in 2021, I'll ask the question again "when can we expect a b-spline tool?"
I spent some time with the pen tool smart mode, but the amount of re-work necessary to get decent curves was just way too daunting.
Next issue, I couldn't find an arc tool. What I needed was a simple quadrant. Was able to produce one by drawing a circle, then subtracting two rectangles to cut off the unwanted bits. Surely there must be a less clunky way?
In the end it was taking too much time so I took the easy way out and went back and did the job in DrawPlus X8.

adi_cataleya reacted to Nico Heinrich in Letter Shape Idea
Hey guys,
I sent this idea in via FB and they directed me here. So, here it is ... (see attachment!)
The idea: You have the letter I with serifs, that you can customize to your needs in order to use it as a building block to design your own serif letters.
Cheers!

Instead of locking layers by selecting layer and clicking the lock button above, just put a lock pad button on every layer.

adi_cataleya reacted to DarkClown in Aligning Object on Outside/Inside Brush stroke size
I wonder if there is a way to align an object not only on the wireframe but also on the outside/inside of the (brush) stroke size?
This is the standard:
This is what I need:

adi_cataleya reacted to Sean P in [Bug] Regression in build 815 - Snap to object geometry does not work
Thanks for that reproduced it here - it just seems to be the intersection element of that Snapping option to be broken. I am still able to snap nodes to curve paths and other nodes, just unable to find an intersection.

adi_cataleya reacted to Jonopen in Studio presets
These presets are a great feature. Should they also be able to hide/unhide things like rulers and left/right studio panels too?
Thanks 😁

adi_cataleya reacted to Nemesis Frontier in Animation Feature
Hello,
I would suggest putting an animation feature into Affinity Designer. This would work well with the tools already found in Designer. Then Affinity could rival Adobe Animate and that would convince many, including me to fully switch from adobe to Affinity. This would also mean its one of the professional products on the market as I have noticed there not being a lot of competition.

Would be nice if you could add this.
I know I can achieve it by closing open curve, but Illustrator does it and it's useful.

Hi adi_cataleya,
Thanks for the file - it looks like it is importing the gradient position in the wrong place. I'll get this passed on to development.

adi_cataleya reacted to John Mevis in Update 1.8 is worst update | damn Publisher spoils the entire line of Affinity
update 1.8 worst update that came out. With this damn publisher you completely stopped improving your main products Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer. They need so many general tool for comfortable work without using third-party tools. And you decided to forces on development of a Publisher. Thank you for it. You have great applications but you develop them terribly. Of course, what I wrote is complete nonsense and who I am to tell you what to do. But I wrote it for some reason. Thanks for attention. Peace and Love
