Sorry can't import your brush pack in my software affinity designer
Hi, since you've already sent this message to our support email address, someone from our support team has already got back to you several minutes ago. Please, check your email inbox, since we don't offer support over the Affinity forum.
Thank you,
Enrique

I'm getting this pop up in Publisher saying Designer and Photo aren't installed for the link up. They are both installed and both are the 1.7 versions, not betas.
What's the workaround for this?
Was about to post the same here. Maybe that's caused from purchasing Designer and Photo from the Apple App Store and Publisher from Affinity's website.

Hello there! I can confirm the app gets unbearably unstable (freezing, unable to zoom/move) when using specifically the Clone Tool too much. I mean, if you’re just going to clone certain part of a photo, it makes no difference; but, if you’re doing some serious cloning for more than 5-10 minutes, the app just freezes and prevents you from selecting other tools. It also affects panning and zooming using gestures.
It happens 95% of the times to me. I’m using a 12” iPad Pro 2018.

Hi! Sorry for the delayed reply. As Madame points out, this was offered as a free pack back in 2017, to FX Monkey email subscribers. Now this pack it's $2.99 USD. You can find it at the FX Monkey Store.
However, we're offering a new eBook/Macros combo for free, if you subscribe to the FX Monkey mailing list (you can opt out immediately after getting the free files if you wish): FX Monkey
You'll find the subscription form at the bottom of the page.
Cheers,
Enrique

Apparently this is more difficult to sort out than expected. Hopefully Matt and the guys look up on this, since it's really defeating the purpose of having such a great feature as custom wet edges.

Hello there,
As much as I'm loving the new Brush Editor features, there's a bug that's been around since the current stable Designer and Photo versions. I've reported it a couple of times already and I hope this issue gets addressed, because it really ruins the experience when using advanced features from the brush panel.
When you add the Wet Edges option to a brush (from the editor), this option gets deactivated or non-recognized back when switching tools using the brush command key (B) and many times, when selecting the brush manually from the brushes panel. Let's say I need to erase something; I switch to the Eraser using (E), then I want to go back to my brush using (B) and when I do that, Wet Edges are switched off automatically, unless I double-select that brush... then, Wet Edges are back on. It totally ignores the stored brush settings.
This affects dramatically the way brushes were originally designed.
Thank you!

Hello there,
I've just found a tiny error when attempting to open a previously closed file through the Open Recent menu. It always returns this message: "Failed to open file... The file is already open by another application", even if it's not. What I do is to close Publisher and once opened again, the file loads normally through the same Open Recent menu.
Bests,
Enrique

@Cealcrest This looks fantastic, love the line weights you've achieved here!
I'm sorry I didn't see this before, haven't had much time to browse the forum lately.

Hello there!
This request may sound stupid, because the least thing you'd want to happen when working on a file is being unable to go back to a previous color adjustment/setting. And in that regard, Affinity Photo is a beast! I've files with literally dozens of Adjustment Layers stacked upon each other...
UNLESS... you're working on a schedule, being TIME your most relentless enemy when you're hired per hour. Last week I helped on a matte-painting project for a gaming company and (I haven't noticed this workflow issue until then), creating an Adjustment Layer whenever you need to make a quick Levels, Curves, HSL, etc. tweak and keep painting over, can become your worst nightmare when having just 8 hours to deliver 4 on-set paintings. I know you can merge that layer immediately after you've made the adjustment (even with a shortcut), but BELIEVE ME, having to:
1. Create the Adjustment Layer.
2. Nesting it to the specific layer you need to apply the tweak (if not, it affects all layers)
3. Merging it down
4. Repeat for the next one...
It's a very tiring set of tasks you need to do, only to make the shadows of a single tree more intense (I.E.), inside a dozens-of-layers scene.
Hope this request makes sense, because it's directly related with money and delivery times and will improve A LOT certain type of work pipelines.
Cheers,
Enrique

This is a nice suggestion. I was a color-layer junkie back when I used Photoshop everyday. It may seem like a trivial thing, but when you've been sitting for 8 straight hours a day working on several files, marking layers with colors are a BIG visual aid.
Cheers.

I would love to have this feature.

Hey Enrique,
Another user has reported something similar here. I've only been able to reproduce it with a Wacom tablet and stylus. I've passed this over to development. I'll let you know when I get feedback.Hi Chris!
Yeah, I just noticed that other post. I'm using a Wacom Bamboo Stylus indeed.
Thanks a lot, you're very kind.

Hi Enrique
Have you tried the brush stabilisation feature in 1.6? It's available to pixel brushes too and should go some what to alleviating this
Cheers
Hi Chris,
I did it, I forgot to mention. It doesn't fix the issue though. However I don't use stabilizers at all when sketching.
Thanks anyway Chris!

Hello guys!
First of all. Nice job on the latest Beta! Love how things are coming out with every release. However, there's a problem regarding Pixel brushes, which is happening since the first release of Designer and doesn't appear in the roadmap yet. It's this 'polygon-like' strokes when drawing with Pixel Brushes (attachment). Would be nice to have this fixed, since in my opinion, ruins a little bit the whole sketching experience. Thanks guys and keep up the amazing work you're doing!
Cheers,
Enrique

You might as well use the same images that are shown on your website, and link them here ;)
Yeah, I could, but I'm used to have a generic hosting service apart from our websites just to link images... it has to do with my own OCD I think haha :)
-
BTW...
I want to apologize for the Photobucket's disaster, they've just slapped in the face even their PAID MEMBERS (me included). So all of our images in the forum aren't being displayed correctly as you may tell by looking at this very thread. Obviously I won't pay $400 for the right to 3rd party hosting...
We're working on a better solution that will be buying (ASAP) our own hosting with the sole purpose of store and hot linking promo images and such...
