  1. We don't offer the ability to crop the document using the Crop Tool for Designer at the moment. Affinity Photo's Crop tool does crop the document so we might look at combining these tools to offer both. 

     

    Yes, please combine these.  It's confusing for those of us who move back and forth between Designer and Photo when a tool (unnecessarily) works differently in each.

  2. Since I don't use Illustrator, or Pixelmator, how Affinity's interface stacks up against theirs is of no import to me.  What does matter is how easy it is for older, less-than-perfect eyes to differentiate between black and really dark gray.  For those not having problems, I'm happy for you.  For those of us who are, we mostly don't need advice to change things that we already know are not the source of our problems with a low-contrast interface.  For what it's worth (which isn't a lot) I actually have Pixelmator and I don't use it, and prolly never will, because of the interface.

  3. It's not something I use a lot in my workflow, however the last time I checked I don't believe it's designed to preview afphoto or afdesign files.  I'll double check with the devs to make sure and update.

     

    Thanks

     

    Any information on the inability of Designer and Photo to display their own files in Media Viewer?  And if this was by design, are there any plans to add what would seem like a very basic feature?

  4. I was aware those keys were already assigned; I was just hoping that there would be an Option for the user to reassign them to something useful to the user.  I may be misunderstanding just how user-assignable the shortcuts are.  Can any or all of the others be changed to suit the user or are they all set in stone?  There are a number of other pre-assigned shortcuts that are of less use to me than the ability to open/close individual panels would be.  But that would require shortcuts for the individual panels rather than one command for the whole schmear.  I'm aware that no developer can please everyone but the more Options for user-customization there are, the closer you come.  

  5. It's great to have Custom Keyboard Shortcuts working in Mountain Lion.  Thanks for fixing that, guys.  

     

    Will there ever be Keyboard Shortcuts for the various Panels under Studio?  I've followed Miguel's suggestion and have them arranged in single drawers.  But it would be so much easier, faster, and smoother in terms of workflow to be able to enter a key command with my left hand and toggle the desired panel open full length.  I know that there are a limited number of keystrokes possible but I have 9 panels that I use most often and 9 number keys that I do not use at all. (Cmd/0, I do use.)  I would love the Option to assign those number keys to the Studio Panels that I use.  Any hopes of that?

  6. Miguel, the document was created with a transparent background which I later filled with black.  It got accidentally shifted and I did some painting on it when I couldn't line it up to fill the canvas again.  After fiddling with it for a bit, it seemed easier just to paint the edges in.  Obviously I missed some.  How it got to be a non-rectangular, I don't know.  No shapes or objects were ever near the boundary and the paintbrush should not be able to go beyond the boundaries.  Not important now and I'm just relieved to have it fixed.  So thanks again for the help.  

  7. I have an image with multiple layers, mostly vector but with a couple of pixel layers plus my black background layer is pixel.  I exported to JPG and also to TIF.  Everything looks fine in Affinity Photo but when I look at the JPG or the TIF in the finder or on my iPad...I have a 1 or 2 pixel white line along the right edge.  I'm guessing on the size since the line can't be seen in Photo where it could be measured.  I've tried the export several times, both with everything merged down and with it not.  Still get the line.  What is the problem here?

  8. I was surprised to discover, looking back over the older ones, that I had apparently never submitted a Review.  I'm sure I did Ratings, for both Designer and Photo.  This time I did both for Photo and sort of slid a Designer plug in with it.  For what it's worth, and I'm not sure how representative I am, when I'm considering a purchase I look at both old and new reviews and unless the new reviews are saying the app got worse, I'm as influenced by the old as the new.
