Hi Andy, What does that mean/do? cheers, Sven

Hi Chris, sorry to bother you again. I delivered my first couple of commercial illustration jobs using AD. Unfortunately I have run into more issues related to this problem, like super-saturated edges when working over a transparent background. This means I need to spend quite a bit of time closely inspecting the output and manual cleanup of the files. :( Will this issue be addressed in the near future? thanks, Sven

Hi Chris, thanks for the feedback — hope this will be fixed in a future release. cheers, Sven

Hi, not sure this has been mentioned before or if known to the devs. I have some problems with the output at shape borders. 1. On the first file, i placed 2 green triangles next to each other. The view in AD shows a darker line (probably from the background) between the two. All nodes are snapped & aligned properly. Also I get a dark 1 pixel line on export. 2. On the second image, the the white shape overlaps (& is snapped) the pink one. This looks fine in AD, but I get pink AA bleed on export. cheers, Sven

Thanks for the quick response, sent you a PM!

Hi, sorry for posting this to the forums, but I have been trying to contact Affinity Customer Service for about 3 weeks now (via affinityorders@ser...), but nobody is replying to my emails. What should I do? thanks, Sven

Hi Sean, thanks for your explanation — I actually understood you correctly the first time. My point was just, that the combination of the bug and the way you arranged the shortcuts under different personas leaves open multiple interpretations of what exactly the problem is. It could have been the case (though I understand it isn't), that you'd list all 3 persona shortcuts in every one of the 3 panels. If that were the case, then it would also be missing from the Draw Persona shortcuts.

Hi Sean, apologies — my report was not clear enough. I failed to mention that the shortcut is missing in Pixel and Export Persona. I do not know about your shortcut pref panel conventions, so I could not be sure it was missing in the Draw Persona Prefs by design (especially in combination with the not updating list bug). I also didn't know the bug is already known. Is there a public "known issues" list?

Hi Sean, will do. Already posted one, if I'm able to reproduce the others I will list them as well. cheers, Sven

The Personas -> Draw shortcut seems to be missing from the list of available shortcuts.

Hi Sean, thanks for the quick reply. I have noticed a few other glitches in the Shortcut Preferences panel. cheers, Sven

Hi, I'm trying to reassign the D key to the pen tool, but I get the yellow triangle telling me the key is bound to the key is assigned to "Reset Fill Context". I found the entry in Pixel Persona > Misc and deleted it, but still get the same error message. I have been hunting through all the menus multiple times, but can't find another "Reset Fill Context" to reset. Is this a bug or am I blind to some obvious solution? thanks, Sven

@Leigh: a way to delete nodes in the way you described would be much appreciated. Most users work with one hand one the keybaord (usually at the left side) and one on the mouse. Not needing to move the left hand across the entire keyboard (and thus losing the hovering position on the left side) or having to take the right hand off the mouse helps to increase operating speed and is also less tiring. It's those little UI/UX things that are preventing pro users from working comfortably in AD.

I am sorely missing this feature as well, it makes up for a big part of working speed. I can tweak everything with the tools provided, it just take a lot longer. Hopefully the devs will reconsider ...
