Problem now is that most software is mature and less and less usefull upgrades will be implemented. Best solution for companies is the subscription model.

Installed without problems. Thanks for the update.

Professionally used a lot is Extensis Suitcase. The last perpetual version is Fusion 9. Fusion 10 is unfortunately subscription only. Rightfont also has Auto-activation for the Affinity Suite. The Windows version is in the works. You can sign up for a beta, when its available.

On PC I had to install a dictionary to make auto correct work. My language isn't supported out of the box. You also have to activate this feature. In order to make it work, check the box in edit-preferences-auto-correct for "replace text while typing". Then activate it under Text-spelling-"replace text while typing". My dictionary is working perfectly while typing but under preferences - auto-correct I also don't have a list like seen above.

How long did it take for those companies to implement? This is just a version 1...

Working like a charm here. It's a tab and i can type in search and the images will pop up. I can drag them into the document.

Implementing a feature that doesn't meet the standards is usually not a good thing. People will complain about the quality produced.

Mesh tool was allready on the roadmap. There is no roadmap on the fora anymore but they might be working on it.

A professional using Vector Magic every day will make money by eliminating time and thus cost. In that respect it's not even that expensive. It is priced for pro's not for average users. Just like Photoshop is priced for pro's. If you make money with the tools, cost is relative.

History panel. Here you can select the style you want to remove without removing anything else. If you just used the style, do CTRL-Z. to remove the style used. Effects can be edited, styles not.

Yes, I presume, since no other has this problem.

Don't act like you know more then a developer/designer. Not every workflow is the same and I don't have any problems. Either you change your workflow or deal with it. Not every user fault is a designer/developer flaw.

I can run 3 programs simulataniously without any problems, so? I can comprehend that you got a problem.

Instead of mac, buy a real computer, a Windows computer, no problems...

The lack of response just means they don't comment on roadmaps. We'll see what's next in the 1.9 update. There's a lot of people demanding their features to be includes asap, so what to include next?

The strength of the Affinity trinity is that you can switch from and to all the components with ease. If you need something in Publisher, you can go to publisher and visa versa. I know that a lot of people for instance use Coreldraw for flyers and such(small amount of pages) as it supports multipage...

??? I run the software on Windows but it never maxed out the gpu or cpu. It runs smooth.

Not quite locked. You can remove fonts in Windows out of the fonts folder and they are gone. Also from the Suitcase list. But you have to be careful not to move fonts the system needs.

Not per year...It's not renting...

Hope they sort it out for you real soon.

Consistancy and real world emulation of drawing are two different things. But I agree, consistant results have to be expected.

Serif stated a 2 year cycle for upgrades.

What you find in Adobe products as basic took them at least 14+ years to implement.

If i would draw with a pencil, it would look more like what Designer shows, not what Illustrator shows, it smooths the drawn lines. I am not saying that Designer is optimal though. Corel Painter 2020 is probably way beter then Photoshop/Illustrator for simulating real world media.

Can't you remove the faulty fonts to a folder so the system won't recognize them?
