Tourmaline

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.

Something like this?
Astute Graphics plug-ins:
Dynamic Measure
Hover measure closed path area Measure anywhere on your artwork Toggle following information: distance/ angle/ change in horizontal/vertical distance/ distance along path Scaling factor Units of measurement Hover-measure information including: distance along path/ tangent angles/ radius of curve at any point Draw curve normals Extensive customisation through preferences Use standard Illustrator arrow-heads instead of fixed

Yes, but only for Illustrator.
It's a plug-in for Illustrator from Astute Graphics.
 
They make a bunch of really good Illustrator plug-ins wich will enhance functionality.

Probably not in the near future...

There you go.
Sorry, maybe it's just me but I don't get all the people "demanding" tools in a first edition that other developers took years to implement.
Yes, it's nice to have but understand that implementing tools well costs a lot time and effort.
You get a lot for the price the software costs and a lot of features are added for free. Some other developers will only "fix" things in a payed update/upgrade.
 
There's so many people "demanding" new features that the problem is what to implement first. Everybody thinks their requested tool has priority...
 
Just be reasonable...

People on this forum are smart enough to figure out what you mean in English. I mean, they are smart enough to use Affinity software...

Most professionals will do a manual trace for logo's as it yields best results. I can image It might save time but with relatively complex logo's doing it yourself is always better then any trace program.

Not only books, also a lot of magazines are made with DTP programs. And they don't need that feature.

It has been requested for many times over and over  and it will probably be included in a version 2.0
Serif stated that they will only include this function if it works the way they think it should work, as in effective tracing.
 
For now you can use the tracing engine of Inkscape. It's quite good.

AD = Affinity Designer.

Would like support for the Astute Graphics line of plug-ins!
They enhance Illustrator greatly.

Not only that, you don't have to come up with passwords either, it is automatically generated with given specifications.

Adobe killed that one off just fine...

Log in to your serif account and go to downloads and license keys. here you'll find the downalods and if need be the registration keys.
Also the fonts etc. to download.

This link: Live should work for the live Affinity Publisher launch...

Congratulations Serif on launching Affinity Publisher!
The Studiolink works great.
For people using the beta's. For the Studiolink to work you must install the retail versions from your download page, then the link works.

The buttons for Designer and Photo will ONLY work in the release version of Publisher and with officially purchased copies of Designer and Photo and with CUSTOMER beta's. It will NOT work in PUBLIC beta's...
Quote from Patrick Connor:
"be aware I said customer betas, those released after we launch to preview fixes and more new features. The PUBLIC betas 1.7.0.376 won't ever show those personas, indeed it will stop working."

Confirmed. It's fixed.
 

No problem here, installed just fine.

Now, that's cool.
I need to explore isometric for sure...
