When will the next beta version be released?
clem replied to deepblue's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
I also waiting a tool like shape builder… i tried the vectornator tool… and he is not able to work with line. You need to have closed spline. so I hope it AD have a shape builder, he will be more like illustrator than vectornator. -
When will the next beta version be released?
clem replied to deepblue's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Whether it's 1.11 or 2.0... I don't think that's the issue. I mean, we don't know what's going on. We think there might be some big changes... or not. Or if some problems will finally be solved (bounding box, expand stroke and the other...). I'm kind of joining the grumblers. It's hard to project yourself in a workflow knowing that there are functions that are really missing to be efficient. I'd like to get rid of adobe products... but today, it's still complicated to use serif products in a workflow that uses a lot of other apps like rhino or c4d. I think that paying is not a problem. But the lack of visibility towards the future of the products. Because in the end we never know what is really planned. -

From what I read version 2.0 seems to be a great advance! Support of DXF will be very useful ! -

Hi, To promote our honeycomb panel : Beelite. I develop a candy dispenser with two different thickness 10 and 16mm. I used affinity Photo iPad for the basic sketch and develop the mechanism (basic). And the rest was made with Affinity designer Die and print. 3DD10 3DD16 I have to use ArtiosCad (no for the design) to make it produceable on a plotter and make a 3D Previz. All pieces have to stitch each other (especially for the V-Notch 45°). Final product :150x150x150mm.

Undo by tapping two fingers on screen
clem replied to JensLundin's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on iPad
i'm agree.. there are very goods ideas in procreate. -
Better ergonomic layout for common needs
clem replied to kloveridge's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on iPad
Yes it's a good idea. it should be very useful. I got another idea. Pressing the screen with 3 fingers (or 2 ...) to show up a circular menu with different shortcuts (like procreate or Cinema 4D). It's can customizable in an option menu. It's very frustrating to use the small pop-up with only copy-paste's option ... -
Thanks ! I hope it's going to possible in the future update.

Thanks for the answers. Is it possible to move the topic to features requests (to keep the history of our short conversation) ?

Hello, i’m using affinity photo since 2 weeks. It’s an fantastic apps, we can really work with it. The vector are so incredible and better than other graphics apps ( I can’t wait for affinity designer for sure). But i don’t know if it’s a bug. When I’m working in mm, the units are still in pixel ( I use each time de unit picker and I lose a lot of time). I would like to know, if there are an option to put mm in default unit ? Thanks for the answer.

Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.6 - Beta 4)
clem replied to MattP's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Hello, I would like to know if you plan to add in this version (1.6) : selection by type. I ask because you feature like : Added 'Lock'/'Unlock'/'Unlock All' and 'Hide'/'Show'/'Show All' menu items with shortcuts Thanks -
Ik vind het mooi ! misschien donker blauw in plaats van zwart ! (zoals ING logo) !

Hello everybody. I share you my last project. i work in one printing house, and all of my notepads are full ! and you know, how cost one moleskine ! So I got the cheaper idea : create and print for myself at lowest prize ! I choose 10x15mm. Pantone 012, 032, 072U. For the paper i take 320 Rives textured for the cover and inside 150 Offset paper ! i also have the idea to create hole for my business cards ( i lose them every time !) on the last pages ! I use Affinity Designer to create it ! i use the last beta for the Pantone support. I wanted to have best CMYK reproduction, because my Digital press can make a conversion (better dan if AD make the conversion). Thanks for watching ! and thank for sharing your opinion ! Clém

Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.4)
clem replied to MattP's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Hi, I print some example with pantone. One file with Illustrator, one file with Affinity. I use a Digital press, with In-Rip pantone color conversion. Exactly the same conversion. for the first beta, it's perfect ! i have an request, it's possible to add a search tool (like for pantone) for every swatches we create ? because sometime, it's very hard to find an color ! -
Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.4)
clem replied to MattP's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
So first. i create a new swatch with a new color. but i can't rename it to a custom name ( like a swatch's name). i can acces to renamor's windows… set the name… and it's doesn't work. there is a another thing, when i put a pantone color (Yellow 012C)… and i go back to color's panel. it's give me a CMYK values (but in acrobat it's a pantone). it's very confusing ! did you plan to change it ? -

Affinity Designer Customer Beta (1.3.5.4)
clem replied to MattP's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Pantone support gonna so useful to create polish in 5e colors ! I make some test, and its appears good in separation tools (acrobat). Tommorow morning, i will make some test with the digital press (xerox color 1000) for the CMYK convertion. i will use a same fill with a same pantone generated with AD and AI. Maybe to rip it with apogee prepress (if i got time) So AD begin to be usable for print design. it's so good ! PS. it is poosible to make spot color ? for example, for die cut ? -
Thanks for Typewolf. very useful ! i keep it in my signets. I'm agree with you all about dafont (and co). But sometimes when you need a special font and you want to customize it… it's work. When you go on dafont en his friends. this is your last resort ! ;-) And don't forget, everybody can't buy fonts on linotype or font.com. If you want Helvetica Complete Collection or full Gotham, it's very expensive.

Good ideas ! i will add my free fonts collection's website ! Dafont - everybody know this website Font-squirrel - Good font for web. Google Font - Good font for web too ! lost type - Really good font for decoration and title. It's free but you can paid for commercial use. freetypography.com - An selection of free font. Adduzeedo -Friday Fresh Free Font - Every friday you can download an selection of free font. Creative Blog - Good selection of free font !

hi there, happy to help you. i coming back to upgrade the ressource ! because with the Affinity designer 1.3.2, we can use the navigator( in the previous version, AD doesn't keep the transparency). Download this .ZIP with the ressources before to start: Crop mark 1 - Add 10mm on your document for the bleed. (like in the first step of my tuto) 2 - Press shitf+CMD+M to show the media navigator. 3 - Right click, add folder and select the folder that you download previously. 4 - Drag and drop at right place and this done ! thank
