nice to know as I would also totally dig it, I switched my Laptpo to Linux (Kubuntu) last august and it works pretty decently (win10 is ugly and the driver situation of 8.1 which I use as main on my other machines is, well, not pretty), and there are many things which work so much better after some setup which dont work as nice or not at all in windows (like for example having a german layout without the "dead" keys, or NOT forcing a US-Keyboard onto me while writing japanese or the pretty neat circular scrolling feature which doesnt work on all touchpads in windows etc etc) honestly Linux in my opinion has only 2 things that are actually hard: 1) the setup (drivers and stuff) 2) programs (obvious) and yeah I would totally dig affinity on Linux one way or another. also I think the idea to have your purchase count as Linux instead of win/mac outlined in that one post pretty awesome:

I generally would love if both icons would be accessible somehow so ppl can choose between the old and new style, but probably other things are more important.

(originally from https://twitter.com/My1xT/status/1093096365532549120 ) how about making it so the beta has a version numbering available where one can see what version is active. both on the publisher download page https://store.serif.com/de/update/windows/publisher-beta/1/ and in the customer panel you see only "1.7.0" ever since the start of the beta, which isnt really great and kinda confusing, might it not be better to show a version number which makes sense like for example 1.7.0-beta5 or showing the date of the last beta or whatever so one doesnt have to guess which is the recent version?

I personally have to say I like the previous logos a LOT more, especially since the triangle shape made it easy to see the affinity software in between all the circles and rectangles most other icons have, and I personally dislike flat design.

while at least something, it would be nice to also have a global option like one can do in gimp.

sorry for necroing this (but there's no reason to create a new topic for something regarding it), but are there any plans for adding this feature someday? that would REALLY help in enough situations.

but we would also need help for inkscape or a similar vector tool.

and you can stack artboards on top of each other or what? the export eye is only partially helpful as one would need to toggle it on an off all the time, which is what I do right now. if the eye settings would work per slice it probably migvht help.

is it somehow possile to create multiple slices of the same area but with different active layers? would make creating multiple things that overlay each other (and some dynamic stuff so cant go with affinity for that last part) a LOT easier.

I also hope it makes its way into designer.

I also support this feature.

The Idea is simple. it is a pretty sad thing that the most awesome brushes are pixel brushes, a fact which obviously gets annoying when working with Affinity Designer because pixels dont really scale well, when you create big and want to go small you are gonna have artifacts and in the other direction obviously as well. so my Idea would be that when a pixel layer is created in Designer and Brushes are used, keep a log of what happened where, how etc., and allow for re-creating these with the proper parameters when exporting with different resolutions than the original. depending on the needs of each respective layer or project this could be a setting that could be set globally, per document or per layer. another simpler way would just be to always do these although for projects which are saved without history this would obviously increase the size at least a bit. (if saved with history the Brush tracing could just leave pointers to the history, which obviously would reduce the file size for that part.

The FAQ says Affinity Photo and designer is only available in the affinity store. This is no longer true as they also are in the MS store.

well while I have no Idea about brazil and stuff, apple stuff is getting more expensive in the euro zone as well and windows is becoming worse and worse. isnt it possible to have affinity be a cross-platform sw that works with basically anything as long as serif would compile for it?

okay sorry, I was googling and this thread came. well the eyedropper is not bad but it only shows the composite, I'd rather have an ARGB data of the layer/group I am working with so I can tell whether and by how much there's any color left at the edge.

sorry for nero but I prefer to revive relevant posts rather than cluttering the forum with threads about the same thing. as far as I can see, this menu doesnt exist.

Why in hell would one beed a file then close Action? There's iirc a close icon in mac, and for keyboard users, if mac doesn't ha e something like alt+f4 on windows it's really retarded

by the way any chance we may get deltas someday? especially when the internet connection gets slow as f it gets annoying.

okay, intresting, I would have thought that all the versions would have the version number in sync.

by the way is there a reason why the mac version is higher than windows? does mac have something windows doesnt, or did mac just need more bugfixes?

I would say that is the problem. we are working in a vector space in designer and it is an advantage when we can so as much as possible in vector space. also another reason why it's sad that many awesome things like texturizer come as pixel-brushes.

another thing I want to have is the ability to make the pressure window larger for more control of any lines I like to control.

any chance this can get added to non-explicit layers like groups or symbols and whatnot?

Importing brushes apparently has recieved the blessing of this but apparently other kinds of files, in this case the macros from the affinity photo bonus stuff macros cannot be imported by just drag/dropping them on affinity photo. so my suggestion basically is that it would be suprt awesome if you could just drag and drop all of these meta-files (aka non-document files like macros, color swatches and whatever) onto both affinity designer and photos and that should then just nicely import those files instead of saying that this isnt an affinity document, essentially making it more consistent because as it already does work for brushes and is really helpful for mass-importing stuff. because importing each file one by one isnt really a nice workflow of things.

you can just PM him over his profile, or if you didnt delete your order email, the DL link should be there. also if you used a gumroad account, you can just check your library.
