Here is a "update" to the previous topic. No need to use the vector flood fill and no need to change the afdesign to a jpg. All you need to know is on the video below. Have fun. AffinityD_pattern.mp4

Hello, I've look for a easy way to make pattern for a long time, but the only one I've find where a little awarded. So I decide to try to make my version. The result is an easy and quick process. 45 seconds when you know how to do it (yes I've time it, done judge me). Hope that help someone. 1. Create the document Just create a new document, the size don't matter (here it's true 🙄). You will no need to calculate any size at any stage of the process. 2. Symbol Create a square (or a rectangle, that work too) and create a symbol. 3. Duplication The next step is to duplicate the symbol to finish with 4 of it. 20240727-2051-49.4186730.mp4 4. Finish Technically, It's finish. You can already add and play with your design. All you have to do is add it on the last symbol group. To make it totally usable, you have to group everything on a shape to delimit the visibility. 20240727-2109-21.0377502.mp4 You can save the rectangle as a symbol and duplicate it as much as you want and change the design on the fly. You just have to add your shapes on the last group. 20240727-2117-27.2545096.mp4 Bonus tips (for the ones who read it through) There's for the moment no way to use the vector flood fill tool with a affinity designer file, just a jpg file (the vector part of the name is confusing). So lets Obi-Wan's the program. Save the file has usually. Now, on windows active the extension visibility. Now change the extension of the file from myfile.afdesign to myfile.jpg. The vector flood fill tool will thing it's a jpg, but designer will still see it has a afdesign. If you modify and save it, he will stay a "fake jpg". I hope it will be useful to someone. David

Hello, It's a little awkward to have the TOC style disappeared al the time. Could it be possible to have at least a option on the menu who make theme always visible ? The second think is, would it be possible to not have pre-load style ? I could not talk for other persons, but, it's the first thing I erase when I open a file. Thanks.

Ok, thanks. It's an interesting concept anyway ^^.

This video will show you the problem.

Just download the new version and it's the case. Thanks !

Hello, Wouldn't be good when you create a new document that a new master will be create too ? So users would not have to manually create a master and say " ok, first page is master 1". David

The point is to be able to change the size or position of the frame on the master and that will change on all the pages.

hello, It's just Arial. David

Hello, Thanks, I didn't notice that the is was for group But what I was in mind, was more groups where you could collect different paragraph style and/or character style. David

Hello, Could it be possible to add on option groups on paragraph style, character and colors ? David

A video will help (I hope). 2018-09-28_21-22-31.mp4

Hello, Yes, I'm on window (10), so it's all version apparently. It's not a big bug, but, even when you use style, the size will stay different. David

Heum...the second frame was create after I resize the first.

Hello, When I drawn a text frame and resize it with it's content (for exemple I pass from 18pt to 24pt), the links text frame will used the 18pt text size. David
