  1. https://help.printful.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014066999-What-are-resolution-DPI-and-actual-print-file-size
  2. You can quite easily make a flag font effect in Photo or Designer. USA Flag Font.afdesign
  3. OpenCL 3.0 is supported : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/237330/intel-core-ultra-5-processor-125u-12m-cache-up-to-4-30-ghz/specifications.html look under the GPU Specifications heading.
  4. Make sure you have a stroke defined with the pen tool invariably it is set to zero, by defining a stroke above zero you can also define a colour. What you are seeing in the image is the bounding lines, like a default colour when no colour is set and which cannot be changed, at least not yet, you can also add a request to have that as a feature. Another option is to drop the opacity of the product image by about 30-40% to make the pen tools bounding line or stroke stand out more.
  5. Click on the white mask layer icon and drag it onto ther FN1.png layer icon.
  6. So each rectangle is a unique size? Maybe the OP needs to post a more accurate description of what they are laying out and what they want.
  7. You can make the first shape a symbol and any duplicates will reflect changes. https://affinity.help/designer2/English.lproj/pages/SymbolsAssets/symbols.html
  8. The centre object is called the Arrowed Pan Control or Pan Controller and as you know enables you to position the image within the frame.
  9. I said the look, i.e. with the centred dock, I use mac because it's less problematic than windows, I like the UI and how stable it runs, never said apple made the windowed system. Never touched solaris.
  10. I think all these multi-page posts on Linux and Affinity is the exact reason Serif do not do a Linux version, it's way too much hassle. Don't get me wrong I like Linux, Kali and Tails. I run both from my Dell Vostro. I love how Windows 11 is trying to emulate the look of mac.
  11. Have you tried holding down the Option/Alt key when you click the subtract geometry icon, this creates a compound shape, export and see if the shape maintains the hole.
  12. You will have to process the Raw files (16bit linear) in The Expert RAW app can be downloaded from the Galaxy Store until support for the S24 is added to Affinity's Serif RAW. Just out of curiosity can you take a Expert RAW image and add it to the post.
  13. Rendering has always been slow for me using FF regardless of version.
  14. I think you need to do some boolean subtracting to remove the overhang outside of the Canvas/Artboard.
  15. If Affinity have a propcol file for all affinity associated brushes and any abr brushes can be located in an imported brushes folder, maybe this way you have the best of both worlds. Not sure how having a proprietary file that has to compress and decompress files is space saving when it has to copy the files into that propcol file, wouldn't it make sense to simply target a brushes folder like they do with plugins?
  16. I'm not sure to be honest it was a curiosity find, I was trying reasons why the grey rectangle distorted so much so I rotated it back to zero when I had the node tool selected and it worked. I'll compare code between exported SVG's when rotated by the move tool, which still distorts and the node tool that corrects the issue. Up to yet I haven't had a vanishing line, although it may simply be that the line has it's stroke removed, the only way to look at that is to see if the line layer still exists. A good habit to get into is to describe the layers with meaningful names, certainly helps with diagnosing issues.
  17. Ok a bit more testing for curiosity. The issue appears to be because it's been rotated 90º if I rotate the rectangle (using the node tool) anticlockwise 90º it imports correctly... oddly, if I rotate the rectangle using the move tool it imports incorrectly but not as bad as if I did nothing. Try it for yourself. Select the rectangle Select the node tool Rotate the rectangle with the stick up handle 90º (sorry can't remember the name of it lol!) You can also simply rotate it from the transform panel and type 0 in the R: box (you still need to have the node tool selected, not the move tool) This could be a bug with how Affinity writes the SVG code, any coders want to take a look and see what you all think?
  18. I did it several ways, by simply dragging out a rectangle and sizing it to 7x10, drawing with the pen tool and sizing to 7x10 (did this twice once without a fill and once with) both times imported ok, also drew the rectangle with the pen tool and left the curve open, again, it imported fine. I'm not sure why CCS corrupted the original rectangle, I'll have a look at the SVG code to see if there is something there that CCS interprets poorly. Re the FAQ I pinched a few settings for SVG export but the rest I ignored and just tried to simply the file for testing purposes. Now I know what I can do, I'll go back to the original file and edit it frugally to see how little needed to be done to get it into CCS.
  19. Also, creating a rectangle and a pen drawn curve that spans the centre of the rectangle, then grouping them within an Artboard imports fine into CCS for me.
  20. Back in Gotham City... Ok, a few issues here... I deleted Artboard 2 because I consider that unnecessary duplication when all those elements exist in Artboard 1 Because part of the graphics overhang the bounds of Artboard 1, Cricut Create Space (CCS) sees that as a clipping mask and you get a warning to that end, so those objects need to be moved within the bounds of Artboard 1 and that warning will go away. You need to delete the 7 x 10 inch rectangle and simply recreate it, for some reason the original rectangle isn't liked by CCS, once I had done steps 2 and 3 I could successfully upload to CCS without corrupt of graphics. Screen of document simplified Imported into Cricut. Added to CCS canvas You will also have to delete the Artboard frame as CSS imports it as a rectangle. These were the SVG settings I used
  21. Turn on Show Special Characters: Text > Show Special Characters to see if that gives an indication of this weird behaviour.
  22. If the program the file is being uploaded to is misinterpreting the files data and moving the pen drawn line over outside of the 11.5 bounds, this could be something like a cricut or a cad app.
