You can just ignore the error. I was able to open it.
Only thing missing in the opened document is the thin border of buttons.
Otherwise it's mostly the same as in Photoshop.
On the other hand, many things are not properly shown in Gimp. -
Are you talking about masking to a group?

In Designer, go to Preferences -> General and set Clipboard -> Copy Elements as SVG.
I'm talking about pasting, not about coping.

Do you know of any other programs or methods that I can open the EPS file in and convert to SVG preserving the layers? I would like to upgrade my Macs but then I will lose Illustrator.
Adobe XD(free) can open .ai file.
So rename the file extension to .ai in order to open eps in XD.Then save the file as SVG.

It's not so simple, would be a huge task to develop.
I assume it will happen in v2.0 which would be at least 2 years from now. -
Would be nice if you could add an option to reset the number of copies every time I print.
Remembering the number is often annoying.

Here is a more or less random test on AI (non-PDF based) features imported in a selection of graphic design apps:
Would you provide the sample file?
Or would you test the file in Adobe XD?
I noticed XD has improved ai compatibility compared to a old version.
I can open an ai file with proper layout that was kinda broken in old version. -
It's already mentioned by others before, adapting to Harfbuzz may be the only solution to make Affinity true multilingual.
Adobe, Scribus, Inkscape or LibreOffice uses Harfbuzz.

How many are in the feature request forum where the developers say they look for such things?
Not sure but some are in the feature request section.

There are more topics similar to this...

Of course I won't use RGB image in Affintiy as well.
I use only a grayscale or a 1bit image because a color image won't be needed for this purpose.
Like I mentioned "document" color format is the key. not a placed image. -

Alright, I've figured it out:
In AI CS5 the technique is… wait for it… basically the same as in Affinity per my example above, except more complicated because first you have to add a clipping path to the placed image, then convert it back to regular path while keeping it grouped with the image, then you can apply multiple fills to the path which is now same size as the image below. Of course, you can do the same workflow in Affinity as well, but why should you, when you can do everything with just layer effects directly on the image layer?I think you can colorize the image in RGB mode if it's 1 bit or grayscale.

Somehow it's not possible to paste SVG data from XD.
I confirmed that there's SVG data inside the clipboard when coping objects in XD.
When I paste SVG in Affinity, nothing happens.
Though I can paste the bitmap data.
-
Thank you.
Though Illustrator can just apply a color to the image using the fill regardless of which color mode.
This would be quicker and intuitive.

Really? it's different on my side.
The image layer without K only will be monotone-ish(total white and total black part will remain as is) when apply a color.
but it's not exactly the same color as specified.It seems that once the K only is enabled in CMYK mode, it will be inherited even if the document is converted to RGB mode.
But the color can not be applied to the image just placed. (you see thin red border around the logo, that's the color I applied)

Thing is, there is no "K" in "RGB". Only "R", "G", and "B"… (And the invisible "A".)
Yes, I know. I mean I'm asking Serif to make colorizing the image possible in the same way as in CMYK document.
Illustrator can do that. -

That is already possible. If you open a raster image file (JPG, TIFF, PNG) and make changes that do not result in adding layers (that is, the file remains a flat image file) then you can use File > Save (or Ctrl/Cmd+S) and overwrite the original. But you cannot use Save As; that would give you a native format file (.afphoto, etc.).
If you do add layers, and try to Save, you will be prompted to Flatten the file. If you flatten, it will overwrite the original file; otherwise it will create a native format file.
Yes, I'm aware of it including the override option for PSD.
-
Would be nice if you could enable K Only option for RGB mode as well.

I agree with you (in my applications I divided into Save/SaveAs and Export many years ago), but I will add for completeness.
https://affinity.help/photo/English.lproj/pages/GetStarted/save.html
Yes, saving JPG>JPG/PNG>PNG would be ok I think since the user must be aware of that it's a non-native format.
-
Yes, SVG is the only way to keep the layer hierarchy.
EPS/PDF don't keep it. -
Dissolve creates noise-ish transparency evenly throughout entire layer and the edge of layer/canvas/artboard does not affect to it.
So alternative methods mentioned above can not be used in some cases. -
Pasting SVG from Adobe XD

I see, I used normal copy command and then used paste special in Designer.
As I mentioned there was SVG data inside the clipboard so I thought normal copy would work.
