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.

placed image is outside frame?
firstdefence replied to paleolith's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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. -
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.

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.

Export SVG or PSD
firstdefence replied to Lustu's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I think you need to do some boolean subtracting to remove the overhang outside of the Canvas/Artboard. -
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?

Intermittent group problem

Happy to have helped you both -
Intermittent group problem
firstdefence replied to Salem1113's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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. -
Intermittent group problem
firstdefence replied to Salem1113's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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? -
Intermittent group problem
firstdefence replied to Salem1113's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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. -
Intermittent group problem

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. -
Intermittent group problem
firstdefence replied to Salem1113's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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 -
Text frame in a weird place
firstdefence replied to Godsgirl's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Turn on Show Special Characters: Text > Show Special Characters to see if that gives an indication of this weird behaviour. -
Intermittent group problem
firstdefence replied to Salem1113's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
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.
