I know this has been rehashed multiple times, but I am desperate for a contour/offset tool. Working in the print industry, I need to be able to show bleeds around a die cut and unfortunately a bleed set up for an art board just won't work for customer approval layouts. Granted it can be done manually and there are ways to work around it, but training artists in a work around just isn't practical. In reality, this one tool is keeping me from migrating our art department to Using Affinity Designer as our primary layout software. I would love to move away from other applications (and their monthly payments - you know who I mean :) completely.
Additionally, when placing an object, Affinity Designer automatically embeds the artwork. I can't seem to find a way to make it stay a linked object. Am I missing something? With a step and repeat linked object, I'd like to modify one piece of artwork, not every instance as it is stepped through an imposition set up.
