[New Icons]

Lame indeed

 

[Affinity Publisher - Sneak Preview]

I can't wait, this is awesome. But is it me or is bleed (view) also here missing out?

[Tone Mapping Presets [FREE]]

Thanks a lot! Great presets!

[1.6.x mac beta?]

Finally ... visible bleed

[Adobe Photoshop & InDesign Alternatives]

I just find it very hopeful Affinity Publisher is IN development. I've fallen in love with both Designer and Photo, even though I do have to get used to it after decades of Adobe's software.

 

Next step ... Affinity PDF

[indicate arrow asset for UI design]

It is, thanks for this!

[Setup Bleed in Create/New dialog]

In that case this will almost certainly will make an entrance soon ...

[Designer: Step & Repeat]

PowerDuplicate doesn't seem to work when holding the keys Alt+Shift while dragging in order to go straight (down). It's only possible when Alt-dragging the object.

[Affinity PDF Creator]

Well, expanding the current settings will get you something similar.

 

Next to include the bleed area to the created PDF, it would be a great idea to add media settings as well. Currently you can apply (custom) bleed. This is awesome and I can't wait for it to be actually visible on your document, but it would be great to also being able to define media dimensions, like for instance 10 mm that also can be activated when creating the PDF.

 

That way, when creating a A4 leaflet, 210 x 297 mm, you apply 3 mm bleed, and 10 mm media. When exporting to PDF you end up with a PDF file with a media(box) of 230 x 317 mm, a bleed box of 216 x 303 mm and a trim box of 210 x 297 mm.

[Affinity Designer 1.6.5 - Dimm inactive artboards]

Would it be an idea to (optional) dim 'inactive' artboards? So as soon as you work on artboard 2, artboard 1 wil be somewhat dimmed, depending on your app settings?

[Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.6 - Beta 10)]

Thank you Patrick, being new here I indeed am still trying to find my way around here

[Setup Bleed in Create/New dialog]

When creating a new document, you should be able to (already) set all dimensions, bleed, etc. you now can do at 'Document setup'. It seems a bit strange that you have to create a document first, open the document setup, and then apply stuff like bleed ... this is the long way home.

 

When creating a document I'd like to apply bleed directly.

[Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.6 - Beta 10)]

Currently the absence of bleed view is a major pet peeve for me. This is something that really, really needs to be fixed/added.
