TanBrae started following Power Duplicate and Quick Grids - Tutorial for Affinity Designer , Weight of strokes in shapes tool? , New Object Selection Tool? and 1 other

I'm creating my own compass rose in Affinity Photo. So far, so good! Got it figured out that I could create a star, in white, with a black stroke, then delete the white, and leave just the stroke. YAY! However, I have the stroke set as a dashed line. I would like to know how I can make the weight of the stroke dashes lighter/finer. Is it possible?

New Object Selection Tool?
TanBrae replied to TanBrae's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I did the start holding Ctrl down, and that worked! THANK YOU!!! -
New Object Selection Tool?
TanBrae replied to TanBrae's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I saw that, thank you. Not worth worrying about, because AP is WORTH re-loading. ;) -

Thanks again. I'll give your suggestions a try tomorrow, and let you (all) know if it worked, or not. -
New Object Selection Tool?
TanBrae replied to TanBrae's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Thanks! No to Rosetta. None of my Affinity apps were set to open with that. What if... what if I uninstall all the apps, then reinstall? I first purchased AP, from the App Store, then purchased the bundle directly from the Affinity site. Would any of that make a difference? -

I don't know what Rosetta is, so I'm fairly certain I don't have it. But, if it's in my Mac, some how (I'm not finding it), how do I check the Affinity apps??? I am running a Mac Studio with M2 Max. -

I'm running a Mac Studio with the M2 Max, so no Intel. And, I don't know what Rosetta is, so am fairly certain I don't have that. -

New Object Selection Tool?
TanBrae replied to TanBrae's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
As I've said, I've done that. Twice. I installed almost immediately after upgrading, and didn't see either, so closed AP, then reopened. Still no show. So, I uninstalled, closed AP, opened AP, reinstalled, and still no show. -

Thank you, dominik. I've tried that, too, but it isn't showing up there, either. Weird. And, just FYI, my Studio does have a silicon chip, so that shouldn't be the issue. -
I just downloaded 2.6 AP, and am watching the YT video on what's new. The narrator mentions the new Object Selection Tool, and how to download it. I have done that download, restarted AP, but do not see the icon for the tool. How do I find it? I'm running AP on Mac OS 15.3.1.

Errors saving since 2.5.7 update
TanBrae replied to Bryce's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Adding another possible issue: When using the eraser, for some reason the opacity, while showing 100%, is, in fact, lighter than that. I have to switch the brush to one in the Basic brush set (one that comes with AP), then switch back to the brush I was originally using, and sometimes that works to put the opacity at 100%. This happens to most any brushes I use. All brush settings can be at 100%, but still getting a lighter opacity, which means I have to make several strokes to make the object completely disappear. Using AP 2.5.7 on Mac Studio. -

Yes, issues here, too: Color profile has gone wonky - it defaulted to grayscale. NOT what I want, as I work mainly in color. For some reason, it doesn't always stay in a color profile. .abr files fail to open. Color picker - eye droppers are not working in multiple tools. Hoping I don't come across more. This is as of 12/14 in U.S. How do I go back to previous version for Mac, please? Annnd, update. I was/am still working on an image, and Affinity Photo quit. No warning. MOST of my work saved, thank goodness, but still... -
AWEsome, thank you! But,,, I want to design my own doily for laser cutting. Can I make a shape (for instance, a maple leaf) into a symbol so I can make duplicates as you did in your tutorial? So far, I have created a teardrop/dot design that I want to put on a scalloped edge of the doily. I just used they circle/dot symbol, and the teardrop symbol. How do I merge those but keep them editable to duplicate to go around the scalloped edge? I forgot to add that I'm working in Designer 2.5.5.

Because we are afraid! I, for one, don't make enough money off my new business to afford expensive software TO run my business.
