  1. Nice tutorial of artboards for Affinity V1 but should be very similar to Affinity Designer v2
  2. https://affinity.help/designer2/English.lproj/pages/Artboards/artboards_about.html
  3. Open the image Select the Colour Picker tool (i) and Select radius; I got the same selection using 1 point or average of 65, it makes no difference as the colour is even. Now use Select > Select Sampled Colour... leave tolerance set at 15% and click Apply Press Delete/backspace on mac Deselect selection (cmd + D on mac) Add Black and white adjustment layer and click merge (you don't have to move the sliders. To erase the white border simply select the erase tool (E) select a basic brush 64px and erase away. Then add the outer glow FX
  4. You can do it by using the pixel persona, it's a smidge more complex but doable nonetheless, I'll do a crib sheet.
  5. In Affinity Photo Add a black and white adjustment layer and move the red slider all the way to the right (300%) and then click Merge Now use Filters > Colours > Erase White Paper To get the green outline add an Outer Glow FX
  6. Glad you got it sorted @Adas50 Well done on the dogged determination to find the cause, really surprised it was an ICC profile, never heard of that before but thanks for coming back with the solution.
  7. Ok you can make a macro to get a mask in an adjust layer. Try this very simple macro: Add Mask to Adjustment Layer.afmacro All you need to do is select the adjustment layer and run the macro. Yet another workaround: No 4598
  8. As far as Im aware, it's not possible without having to handle the mask layer and drag it onto the adjustment layers icon. You can create a keyboard shortcut to create a mask, which will appear as a same level layer that you click and drag onto the adjustemnt layers icon. but if you could keyboard shortcut Mask to below you could do it in two keystrokes.
  9. I generally do a bit of ground work first in so much as, I create lines with the pen tool to give a point of reference for height and width. Before perspective After perspective but prior to scaling the photographer back to match the green lines After perspective, using the green lines to scale the photographer back.
  10. No, unfortunately they are nonexistent, there is no way to change the symmetry line colours. By all means make a suggestion in the feedback area: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/52-feature-requests-feedback/
  11. Hi, Ive just worked out how to get round this. I have homebrew installed and installed/updated python via the terminal brew install python ...it updated my python, which I believe is already installed with MacOS but I still got the clipboard error. I opened terminal up and ran this code. pip install clipboard so now I get past the clipboard error and now get the PIL error (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PIL') so I used this command in terminal to get past the PIL error, after this I got the GUI. pip install pillow
  12. Just wanted to say thank you and I really appreciate all your efforts @v_kyr on this forum.
  13. Create the paths/curves and then add them together using Layer > Geometry > Add or the top menu option With the subsequent paths/curves layer and the pen tool selected, you can create a selection from the paths/curves. Another option is to fill the curves with a colour and Command + Click on the layer to make a selection. Replace Command with Ctrl on windows. Doing it this way will keep the paths/curves so you can go back and modify them if the selection is not quite right.
  14. Paths are called Curves in Affinity Apps, not sure what you mean by a "path palette" maybe show the equivalent in Photoshop. Do you mean this from Photoshop... If so, Affinity doesn't have a path/curve panel. Give us a step by step on what you are doing.
  15. On Mac I can drag and drop, webP, Heif and Heic files into Affinity, no crash. Considering AVIF is similar to Heif, wouldn't it be fairly easy to add to the list of supported file types. Workaround 2,045 : Gimp supports Avif files so you could simply export to a file format Affinity supports for now.
  16. Hi, interesting problem, shadows can have a range that the eye doesn't readily perceive but is there nonetheless. Only when you mismatch that area does the range become apparent. I think we also need to know how you are making the pattern for seamless tiling? It will be better if you could upload one of your pattern tiles for us to look at.
  17. So symbols are kind of document specific as in, they are self contained within the document and cannot affect other documents but can be transferred via assets to other documents where they will operate independently of the original symbol in another document, got it.
  18. So what happens if you edit a symbol, will it change symbols in another document on open or do they become independent and only relate to that document?
  19. Symbols are document specific. With regard to your video, have you considered it may also be the effects of layers above the symbol?
