You can try to create a Style, or you can do a Master document, and copy the prepaired text from it. https://affinity.help/designer/English.lproj/pages/ObjectControl/styles.html

Yes, it is "number one" :-) I think, Serif should disable this option by default, and let an experienced user turn it on. There are plenty of "Features" to default shutdowns (for beginners). A mode for beginners and professionals would also be useful.

AD/AP vs APub is inconsistent. To ADe and APh, which are also frequently used, I would add APu. P.S. Affinity Developer? :-)

Try clipping.

Etc. from search: "designer gold text site:forum.affinity.serif.com".

Reset Selection Box—after reshaping, rotating, or shearing the shape, this option resets the selection box to vertical. https://affinity.help/designer/English.lproj/pages/Tools/tools_move.html

Add New Pixel Layer, set your opacity to 50%, and draw red lines with 100% opacity.

So you will live for many years in fear - honest condolences :-)

Maybe you'll find something interesting.

Please, unify the color settings in Colour palette. For example in Sliders mode each slider has its own box for direct value entry, but there is no cursor (circle) in the color field with the selected color (even though you can adjust the color by dragging). While in Boxes mode, the cursor (circle) is, but you cannot enter a value (direct value entry is often useful). Tint mode direct value entry has, but again it has no color field. Personally, I think that instead of specific Tint mode, it would be preferable to give Tint as one item in Boxes mode, or/and in Sliders mode.

You need the Close Curve? Close Curve joins the start and end nodes to create an enclosed shape.
