I Have the same Problem. I seems that it works with a solid (pencil) stroke, but only on a new path! When I switch a path from brush to solid, the stroke expansion is still broken. I attached a test file with some variants (also played around with size variance besides pressure) Expand-Stroke-Bug?.afdesign

Just came here to complain abou that, too 😭 Exactly the problem with the bleed. Any hints when this might be resolved? PS: Since I'm here - it would be nice to be able to edit the document settings from the Pixel Persona, too! Bildschirmaufnahme 2022-09-16 um 17.19.29.mov

Hi, I am not sure if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything about that. Also I have no comparison to Adobe right now - no subscription. Why is the mask in CMYK not really „alpha-masking“ the magenta layer but turning the edges grayish? How can I avoid that? thanks and cheers, Steffen CMYK: RBG:

Uhm, this is not (yet) implemented right? +1 from my side

Hi, I made a tiny screencast - this is in a code editor. So I don't have bold - but I set some text into quotes which could be any inline format in designer/publisher. Furthermore I could add some punctuation if the text needs some structuring. This should roughly apply to any list-like / table-like texts. I can select multiple parts of text by selecting lines while pressing alt Or I can add a cursor a line below/above by pressing alt+cmd+up/dowm One thing though: Here—in code—I edit multiple lines. In Texts it would make sense to set cursors at the beginnings of paragraphs. I didn't know I'd miss it until I actually got used to it by code editing. Then back in InDesign I stumbled upon it a couple of times while editing this magazine. mc.mov

@A_B_C Nice! Thanks for the hint! Haven't researched properly before. That's awesome. Regarding multiple cursors: I was editing a rather long list of paragraphs the other day which align about to that pattern: “bold-word em-space normal-text” But I received them as “normal-text space normal-text”. With multiple cursors all along on each parapgraph I could format every paragraph in one take. Other example: Another Text consists of a mix of paragraphs and consecutive lists - it would be nice to set a cursor on every next paragraph via a hotkey. So one could easily format like the next 4 paragraphs in one go .... ... mh, ok - given you don't want to move your hands to the mouse. to select the text. Maybe I that was a bit too much coding lately ...

Hi, I am just editing a magazine in InDesign and I thought: Hey! I'd like to have multiple cursors like in common code editors and - it would be nice to be able to set custom hotkeys to paragraph and inline text-styles. Thats it. Would be nice if this could be considered cheers Steffen

Hi, I am using https://imageoptim.com/macto further compress images for the web without loss of quality. It would be nice to have the options of the tools used in this program in Affinity Designer, too - they are open source - I hope their license would allow this. ... Otherwise I'd have to wait for scripting capabilities of AD ;) cheers Steffen

hej, to be more precise: you have to click on that text "namen eingeben" - in english probably "enter name". it is hardly readable though here at my place - but i don't know whats going on with the beta, whether that function might not work - but maybe have a look again for that hint where to click actually - sorry if I was imprecise! cheers edit: ah! just saw in your screenshot that there is nothing like "enter name" ... .... :( probably a beta issue!?

Hej, it would be nice to be able to remove the doctype quatsch when exporting SVG files. I regularly embed them directly in HTML and there shall not be more than one doctype in an html file ... apart from that it is not necessary anyway when embedding in html ... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> please! :) cheers

Ah, aha - ok - i only found the popup when you click on the button in the red circle: "path component" in english. the screenshot above refers to the popup related to the button in the green circle - that one is new to me. well, basically i understand what you can do there - for example: i was putting a path description into the path component " ./subfolder/" which automatically exported that slice in that "subfolder" in the export folder. then you can also add "variables" which modify that path - or filename. for example the "slicename" variable will output the name of the slice. you could do: "/weirdexports/[slicename]/" - and your exports will be put in a subfolder "weirdexports/slice1" ... in the other popup you can modify the filename in the same manner. (@mattb5906) and I just found out that you just have to click or doubleclick right below "name" in the list to be able to add your own variable. there you can enter a name - and on the right side a value. you are able to reuse snippets then ... (i guess in all documents) but ---- ! I'd like to see more variables. For example, I don't like it to navigate to the correct export folder every single time again when I am editing another document. There could be a variable "document root" which will contain the path to the document. so you can setup a neat export ..... setup ... mh.

Hej, I would enjoy this: When selecting a export profile and changing some settings, the profile name in the export profile selection/display at the top would not vanish. Instead it could change the color (it would indicate that the current setting differ from the last selection) - also the settings which differ from the last selection would also be indicated. Then - I could choose to update the profile or save as new one. Of course system profiles could not be updated. How about that? : ) cheers Steffen

I don't have this field? (Affinity Designer 1.5.1) Yet, I was also wondering how "path components" become useable and would like to see a short documentation about that. I couldn't find anything ... It annoys me that export paths are not saved per document - I tried dragging a folder into that window ... would be handy. Didn't work though.

Whats off for me is that the radio and the shopping cart have a thinner outline. I think you should use the same thicknes / proportions throughout the illustration. Not that every line has to be the same thickness - but it looks like the radio is scaled down including the thickness of the stroke. Maybe the outer lines should be like the thicker outlines of the girl and some inner strokes may be like those two little hairs of hers there ... And the bubbles could be closer to her, maybe overlapping each other a bit. Apart from that, nice work! cheers!

Hi, I noticed the same today. I think something should be done there. My problem was that I placed a CMYK picture into a RGB document. Then copy pasted that picture in the same document and affinity designer fittet it to the RGB colors / or removed the original profile? I think Affinity Designer / Photo should be clearer about different color profiles / modes and show some warnings. Or the placed image should be converted to the document profile directly - with a notice. Pretty confusing. ... I hate that color stuff ...

Hej, I'm used to double click on the magnifier in Adobes programs to switch to the 100% view - would be cool to have it also in Photo and Designer. Tiny but nice. :) cheers, Steffen
