Hi.
I have made a Spanish manual of Affinity Designer based on the help of the software.
I hope it helps.
Greetings.
Affinity_Designer_-_Manual_de_Usuario.pdf

For the Isometric studio, you might try starting Designer beta with the Ctrl key held down, and perform the clear operation with the first 3 items checked on the menu. That got it working for me (on Windows 10).

Click here to download the latest beta
 
Status: Customer Beta
Purpose: New features
Requirements: A valid product key, issued when Windows Affinity Designer version 1.5 was purchased.

This is a beta of a substantial change to our codebase and as much as we have tried to ensure the quality of the code, it is considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity that you may be adversely affected by the application failing. In addition it is definitely worth noting that files created in Affinity 1.6 may not open in 1.5 so always make a copy of your important documents before opening them in 1.6 to ensure you do not accidentally overwrite them and are unable to open them in your 1.5 version.

We hope you enjoy the latest build, and as always, if you've got any problems, please don't hesitate to post here and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks once again for your continued feedback.

If you have a general question about the software, please head over to the Questions Forum, or if you have any suggestions, please head over to the Feature Requests forum.

Known Issues (that did not affect earlier betas)
Brush Editor dialog sliders are laggy (fixed in next beta)

Hi, this is a known issue and will be fixed in the next beta.
 
You don't actually need to restart the computer, you can just do End Task via the Task Manager (press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC, then right-click on Designer to End Task).

Fixes
First and foremost, the 1.6 version is mainly about: Light UI! (go to Preferences->User Interface) Improved view pan/zoom performance and new pixel-differencing pixel shader Improved performance with large documents New font chooser dropdown with recents, used fonts and favourites (Not available in Windows version yet)  New Glyph browser Stroke stabiliser for all pencil and brush tools Align to key items (first/last selected) Text frame vertical alignment options Fit frame to text (double-click on bottom centre handle). Transform panel uses the rotation centre (Not available in Windows version yet)  Scale/shear can now be performed about rotation centre (Not available in Windows version yet)  Double-click now resets shape handles and rotate/shear handles Many PDF export improvements including vector export of multi-stop gradients Numerous bug fixes and stability improvements

After drawing with a "stabilized" pencil, the cursor gets lost when it's over the toolbars. It doesn't happen without stabilizer. It doesn't return after painting and then deactivating the stabilizer.
 
 
 

Hey folks, it's time for some new tutorials! (And an updated one)
 
Had a heavy focus on doing light painting and astrophotography recently, so the videos reflect this:
 
Stacking: Star Trail Effect (Updated) Pin Sharp Stars Light Painting Compositing Tone Mapping Portraits  
Hope you find them useful! Even if you're not into light painting or shooting the stars, there are some useful techniques explored in these videos that you could apply to other types of imagery.

Congratulations for the launch!
I've just bought my copy. Awesome software. Greetings from Argentina!

Fantastic App. Purchased today  (.. and the book too)
