  1. I'm on the latest version of affinity photo. I have not been able to create any text without it defaulting to have strike through text.
  2. I noticed in the latest version of the Affinity Photo for windows that the Strike-through option found in the Character panel is broken. What i mean exactly is, once you turn this feature on, Affinity photo will forever default all newly created Text to include a strikethrough. As you may have guess this can be very cumbersome. Attached a video to demonstrate the issue as well. I hope you can please fix this, it kinda drives me crazy. To reproduce: - create a new text - enable strikethrough - disable strikethrough - create a brand new document - create new text in the new document (it will default to have strikethrough) - now every text layer you create it will default to have a strikethrough even if you restart affinity or uninstall and reinstall it. strikethrough.mp4
  3. CAN WE PLEASE!!!!!! Fix the selection to add when the user holds SHIFT. It's a pain in the ass trying to do this with a mouse and a wacom pen with this right-click idea....it's driving me nuts.
  4. Why don't they add some options to allow users to use mod keys instead of the corky mouse click combinations to do such a common task. I feel like the current implementation makes such a common task more cumbersome than it needs to be.
  5. Is there any options or ways I can change the selection marquee (rectangle) to append to the existing selection when holding shift on the keyboard? ideally: 'press Shift and click and hold left mouse button and then drag' to add to selection I believe most applications as far back as I can remember work this way. For example photoshop, gimp, google drives drawing...etc. I have had affinity for over two years now and still have no idea how to append to the (drag rectangle selection) I've tried so many combinations. I feel like at this point whatever the solution is, it's not what would be expected based on common applications. Any help would be great. Just a bit frustrated that it's sometimes difficult to figure out basic commands like this. Could we also please make it possible to create guides when in Pen mode?
  6. Any updates regarding and python or C# api for affinity photo/designer?
  7. It's certainly a bit of a bumpy road each time i try to add to my selection in the photo. In every photo editing software available to date, when users click on the canvas and drag out the selection rectangle, it adds to the existing one if the user is holding SHIFT. How come in Affinity photo they decided to break this decade long convention? I still have no clue how to add to a selection in affinity photo. Could someone help me out. Whatever the solution is, it's not what one would expect after a decade or working with applications like this. Any help is appreciated.
  8. You can not create Guides easily. You have to be in a specific tool. Guides are only creatable under specific situations which is very annoying when trying to draw shapes or brush strokes. In photoshop it doesn't matter what tool you are using, you can create guides by dragging out from the ruler.
  9. I would like a bitmap tracing feature in Designer. The feature would create a vector path based on the contrast of an image.
  10. How can I place an black/white image as a mask onto a group. Masking is some confusing compared to what I'm used to doing in Photoshop. In this case i drug the black and white pixel layer ontop of the group thumbnail and it appears to apply it as a mask but doesn't do anything? The workflow appears very unpredictable at times like this where I spend 30 minutes trying to figure out something so trivial. I'm going to guess the solution is not as straight forward as this.... In this sample I should be seeing a red background however I'm still seeing the black background that's part of the original image which should be masked out. Any help please?
  11. What i don't understand is why the Tools panel doesn't work the same as all the other window panels which are dockable everywhere.
  12. Will there every be a day where we can move and dock the tools on the right side of the application? I find it cumbersome to have to move my cursor from one side of the monitor to the other just to change/select a new tool. I know there are keyboard shortcuts, however this isn't the most ideal with on a wacom tablet. Thanks
  13. I'll gladly pay you guys to add this feature. It something I so commonly use in photoshop that it's become a bit difficult at times to create certain shapes and vectors in AD versus photoshop. Here is a list of the processes it breaks by not having this feature Without the ability to snap guides user's can NOT do the following Snap guides to sub parts of nodes Snap guides to control handles on shapes Snap guides to edges of shapes which are parts of larger shapes Snap guides to Text characters Snap guides to selected shape points These are all critical and rather basic uses for Guides and the reasons people use them. I noticed this topic was brought up back in 2014. I hope you guys could maybe supply some information on whether or not we will ever see this feature. Otherwise I may sadly have to find some alternative solutions to this.
  14. Why is it not possible to create Guides when the Node Tool is active. It seems like a commonly desired affect. Currently every time I want to create a guide line i have to place a marker on the screen of my monitor and then switch to the Move Tool in order to create a Guide by dragging from the documents Ruler. It would be great if we could great guides regardless of which tool is active. Hope you guys can fix this. Thanks
  15. Hey MEB and other Affinity Developers, I'm a technical developer myself, for a video game company called Ubisoft. However I'm a huge fan and user of Affinity's products. I found myself wanting some additional shapes which currently don't exist in Affinity Photo and I was wondering if there was a way I could develop these and use them myself or even give them to you guys to implement into the application? I'd be more than glad to help out if possible. If at all possible, can I extend my local version with shapes I want? Thanks
  16. Life save!!! Thank you Very much. I was going crazy trying to solve this.
  17. Well this shouldn't be the case but I've been messing with a simple layer mask for 30 minutes now and still haven't been able to successfully mask a simple layer. This clearly is more complicated than it needs to be. What I'm trying to do. I have 2 images in separate layers. How can I use the black/white image as a mask on the other image? I've tried a dozen of things neither which worked. I tried selecting the layer i want to mask, adding a mask to it, then control clicking the mask and clicking paste, but it pastes the mask from the clipboard into a new layer, not into the mask. Secondly i tried dragging the black and white image onto the image until the blue vertical bar appears but this doesn't do anything. Why is this so complicated to do something so simple....very frustrating.
  18. Are there any updates to exporting with more control like Photoshops Save for Web feature, stripping meta data and previewing the optimizations?
  19. Congrats on the release guys. I'm a huge advocate for Affinity Designer/Photo. I'm an employee here at Ubisoft (game studio) and I've been talking about this application for over a month now. I've convinced everyone in my surrounding room, at work, to get rid of their Adobe subscriptions and change over to Affinity! So your consumer base is growing. Keep it going guys. Great stuff.
  20. I was curious to know if there are any hopes that down the road a python or some sort of scripting API will be available for Affinity Applications like Designer/Photo. Working in the film/vfx/games industry for over 10 years now, one of the biggest headaches is developing pipeline tools for Adobe applications due to their constraints and poor choice of Java implementation for API. I would love to see a modern API like python supported in Affinity applications. Thanks guys, keep up the great work!
  21. Where or how can I get a copy of the Library items seen in the demo video for Affinity Photo. I would love to test and play around with the various library filters seen in the demo video here: http://cgpress.org/archives/affinity-photo-for-windows-is-released.html
