Pixel and Poly

The Asset Pack contains 80 clean vector assets. Almost all of the assets are set up for easy tiling. They are all solid objects with no stroke so you can easily apply any fills, gradients or fx to the objects. The PDF has some more info and lists all of the individual assets. https://gum.co/screentone The assets are broken into six sub groups: 100mm screentone blends (7 assets) 60mm screentone dot tints (19 assets) 300mm screentone blends (6 assets) 300mm screentone dot tints (19 assets) 300mm screentone reverse dot tints (10 assets) 300mm screentone line tints (19 assets) Screentone Information Document.pdf

Thanks for that answer. Was just about to ask the same question. I wonder if the default node toolbar icon should be the one with the pullout for the point transform instead of the original one.

Cheers guys! I purchased Publisher but this is for a live product so I'll wait for the final release to come out before using it on a job.

Is there a way to add a hyperlink to text in Designer so when we export as a PDF the link will stay live? I see the hyperlink option in the PDF export dialog box but I don't see anywhere to actually add the link data to text (or an object). Cheers!

I agree that this would be useful. Many times I like to keep the darkened area very dark. It would be great to have a % option next to the check box.

Agreed! A print job with 3 spot colors plus black will be pricey. If they are looking to save costs I would probably have one version of the logo that can be done in 1 color and then you could also provide a full color logo for 4-color printing or if they want to use it on the web.

I would probably just have one artboard for all the bills and then have all of the elements that are the same between them at the bottom in one (or a few) layers. Then I would have a separate layer for each of the denominations where you can have the specific $ amounts and any specific pictures. If you need to change any of the base features you just need to adjust them once. If you really want separate art boards using Symbols like @Alfred suggested is probably the way to go. There are some video tutorials on symbols on their YT/Vimeo channel.

I was able to come up with this solution by expanding the stroke and then layering two blurred smaller stroke versions inside. gradient-curve.afdesign

I'm on Win10 and when I merge or flatten the file the lines stay the same and have the bolder look. Everything works as expected on my end.

What do you mean flattening destroys the upper layer. When you flatten a file all the layers get merged into a single one. When you save as a jpg it will flatten the file as well. Are you expecting different behavior?

Can you share the photo file with us so we can look it over? or post some images of before and after of the problem area and the layer settings?

@GHS I think they were recommending you going to this page: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/5-affinity-on-desktop-questions-mac-and-windows/ And click on the START NEW TOPIC button so you can ask your question in a new thread so you might be able to get the help you need. It's hard for people to help you when your question is buried inside someone else's questions.

Glad it worked out! I usually like to keep copies of the unmerged layers just in case I need to go back to them for any reason. Good luck!

If you needed to do that I would make a copy of that group and make a copy of the orange blend background so you have them if needed. Turn off those copied layers so you don't see them. Then select the all the tower layers and also the orange blend background that are visible and merge selected on all of those.

If needed you could merge those layers AND include the background blend and it will work. But you won't be able to move them around or adjust. I would just keep them separate.
