That's a way off at the moment but I certainly wouldn't discount it in the future.

Another way is to use the grid set to 7mm and snapping set to 'snap to grid.'
- Copy: Press CMD (⌘) + C on Mac, Ctrl + C On Windows)
- Paste: Press CMD (⌘) + V on Mac, Ctrl + V On Windows)
- Hold: Shift (⇧) + CMD (⌘) on Mac, Shift + Ctrl on Windows) to keep the circles aspect. and resize to the next grid point/line.

Are these documents downloaded Templated docs or created by you?
It would be easy to make these files in Affinity Designer, the horizontal lines can be created and added as an asset, the numbers can also be made into symbols so that you edit one and all replicated symbols will change. You can also save the symbol as an asset so that they are independently available for other documents you create.

Affinity has misinterpreted the information, changing the stroke parameters on the number '6' curves to those set in Inkscape will get you the correct stroke.
You can change the stroke parameters on one of the '6' shaped curves and create a style from it, then apply that style to all of the other '6' shaped curves.

Affinity files, can be opened by all affinity apps whether they are afdesigner, afphoto or afpub.

Upload the SVG for us to look at.

I had no idea that “The Tingler” was a film; I just came up with “The Tinglers” off the top of my head.
Thanks for pointing that out.Yours is plural so I'd count that as a sequel lol!
I reckon it's a dark carry on film that was never released. Eccentric twins who look a bit like the Mad Hatter with one each of these devices...
...running around the dark streets of Upper and Lower Slaughter; a more picturesque place one could not imagine, inducing excruciating follicular pleasure to unsuspecting people with heads. Inspector Spakmearder head of The Birmingham Ultimate Municipal Squad (BUMS) a crack group of elite investigators were hot on the tails of the sinister twins, where will the twins heinous crime spree be next, what happened to Mrs Baps, who removed the danger sign "don't stick your finger in the plug socket" and where have all the daffodildos gone?
Diabolical crimes indeed.

Ah so you know about 'Project Blue Beam'.
Yes and more besides, just one of the many critical thinkers cutting through the BS and seeking the truth.

IMHO the technology is verging on scary! Its great to be able to do this kind of thing as an artistic pursuit but unfortunately this will used to create a false impression of reality to that point where, used in the wrong hands, we can be duped into believing anything 'THEY' choose. Videos of UFOs and aliens would be a good example. Hollywood has been doing this for years. However if a government gets into it then...
Agreed, Project Blue Beam is just one of the flags, and anything like this is always used by nefarious agencies.

If you want to see where Ai is going, have a play on this website: https://playgroundai.com/create

Been there, done that, the magic runs out very quickly lol!
Can't wait for Affinity Ai, where you just sit back and watch the Mac create a work of art by picking up on your brainwaves, unfortunately for most men that will result in scenes from PornHub

You can remove the flow link between text frames, click once to select and twice to disconnect.

If you want to remove a shortcut simply click on the small circled x to the right.

I don't think there is a way to find a font family in Affinity Designer, it may be possible in Affinity Publisher but I'm not up on RegEx searching but others will be able to tell you more.

Not necessarily, modifier keys like CMD, Shift, ALT can be used if other menu items already use that key, it normally flags up if there is a clash with a warning yellow exclamation triangle, mousing over that triangle will give you a hint to the clash.
"K" is currently being used by the Knife tool in Affinity Designer v2
Also, using a modifier key can prevent accidental selection of shortcut.

Hi @jackamus
Go to Preferences > Shortcuts
Select the action you wish to make a shortcut for and press the key and if needed the modifier key to input them.
See screenshot below for example.
I set the Break Curve to CMD + K

1. Is there a shortcut in Designer to increase/decrease Kerning by 1%?
Yes just click in the input box and use the up and down arrows on the keyboard and it will increase or decrease the kerning by 1% increments.
45 minutes ago, DGee said:2. Is there a way to hide the text box and the pulsating vertical line while kerning? This is really distracting.
Not that I'm aware of.

Or do you mean like this? Each row is grouped and each row has it's own gradient, so in the top example the first row has a gradient from Red (Left) to Pink (Right) (255, 150, 255) The second row has a separate gradient going from Pink Right (255, 150, 255) through to Grey (Left) (127, 127, 127) and finally the third row is Grey (Left) (127, 127, 127) to Blue (Right) (50, 200, 255)
To get the bottom example you can simply reverse the gradient for the middle row

Symbols on a circular text path don't align correctly
in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Posted
The problem with the stars inline with the text happens if you then try to scale the circle text path, the stars go all over the place and is likely a bug.
Before scaling
After scaling
Scaling with the text node bottom right below the bounding box node, scales without distortion.
