[Affinity Designer Beta Public 1.5.0.24 version]

You are wrong. The OS only crashed after installing 1.5.0.24 and opening the software.

 

I had installed others softwares: LibreOffice, Netbeans, WinRar, Adobe Acrobat Reader and Skype. None of them caused the crash. AD did. I assume that. Not only once, but twice.

[Affinity Designer Beta Public 1.5.0.24 version]

I had some crashes in prior versions, but not major issues.

 

Now, this one has really sucked me.

 

I updated from 1.5.0.23 yesterday and I had a bad error that caused my Windows 10 to crash. I had to reinstall the system.

 

Today, I installed some programmes and nothing happened. I hadn't even updated the system at all. HOWEVER, as soon as I installed AD 1.5.0.24 again, the OS crashed and disappeared.

 

I have to install EVERYTHING again.

 

Thanks for everything but I'm done with your product for long.

Did what? Using the "Bevel join"?

 

Yes. I tried but I have no idea still how to use that painel looool

[Redcross]

Thanks @R C-R and @Ben. I even didn't realise there was a square star tool looool

 

@PixelPest Would you mind creating a gif to show me how exactly you did that, please? 

[Redcross]

I know that already - but then tell him not to add a stroke, which will add rounded corners by default. (just here to mention the stroke properties/styles  :D )

Maybe he is counting points like I do polygon counting in 3d.

I got lost here lol

[Redcross]

I used the star tool to draw this object with only 4 points. If you see, the corners are rounded and that's not what I want. 

 

I tried to drag through node tool but I couldn't go all way.

 

Is there any other tool to fix those corner into square shape?

 

Thanks in advance

[Half-round object]

Thank you

 

Although, my object sucks and I have no idea how to fit in others lol

[Half-round object]

I don't see any red point

[Half-round object]

How did you cut the parts?

[Half-round object]

I just drew an ugly raw half-round object on Paint lol

 

I'm trying to figure out if there is any tool to create such one.

[Stroke painel]

I see. Thanks

[Stroke painel]

Hello guys, I tried sometimes to use that tool but I have no idea how to.

 

What are all those features like Cap, Join and Align besides that Miter and Pressure? How do they work and how to use them?

 

Any example?

 

Thanks in advance

[License]

I couldn't find any topic related to this, if there is one, please forgive me.

 

So, Affinity Designer is available to acquisition in 1.5 version. 

 

I will get a new laptop next Black Friday and I was wondering if I'll be able to use my license on it and uninstall from this laptop, or will I have to get other license?

[Irregular Object Form]

Thank you very much, guys. I appreciate all you effort and time to help me

[Irregular Object Form]

Please see the attached screenshot.

 

I see. I still have some difficult to deal with that. When selecting the Node Tool, I don't see any way to cut the line. How did you do that exactly?

[Irregular Object Form]

I know you said you tried using the Pen tool, but did you try using it in "Polygon Mode"? In that mode, with "Snap" enabled (in the Context toolbar) you can easily draw rectilinear (right angle) paths. If you also turn on Snapping (in the main toolbar) after making a ] shaped path, you can start a new one that snaps to the midpoint of the last one's vertical segment.

 

You can also use guides or grids to keep everything nicely rectilinear if you enable snapping to them.

 

Polygon Mode? I don't get how it would be possible. Would you mind creating an example, please?

[Irregular Object Form]

If you select the rectangle and 'Convert to Curves', you can choose the Node Tool and break the curve in two places to go from this

to this

You can then simply delete the detached line.

 

Node Tool?

[Irregular Object Form]

I'm still an amateur utilising AD and I have no idea if it's possible to design such thing, as you a bracket.

 

The only thing I got to perform that brack was shaping through Pen Tool. Maybe, it's ridiculous but I have no idea any other way.

 

I even tried to use the rectangle tool, however I'm not sure if it is possible to cut one those lines.

 

Any tip, please? 

[Grouping Layers]

Thank you

[Grouping Layers]

I don't know if this tool is available, if so, how to do that? 

[Affinity Publisher]

Most of people in THE WORLD have Windows no Macrappy, ok? So, if they should priorise anything, that should be softwares for WINDOWS

[iPad Version of Affinity Designer]

I want an app on Android

[Centralise Text (center text vertically inside text frame)]

I used convert into curves tool, but it's not what I was looking for. I hope you can add it soon.

 

Would you mind requesting this feature, please?

[Change default ruler?]

Hi MikeMoyle,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

Affinity will display the rulers in the units you set for your document. So if you change you document units to inches the rulers will also display in inches. You can change the document units in the context toolbar when the View Tool is selected (Photo and Designer) or in the Document Setup dialog in Designer (menu File ▸ Document Setup...).

 

I was wondering that DPI tool. I still don't understand very well how that modify my work. Would you mind defining what happen to document when changing it?

[Centralise Text (center text vertically inside text frame)]

When clicking on Text Tool, the writing is always placed on top of board.

 

Is there any way to centralise the text?
