There is one exception to this trend. (The first to introduce me to the world of 3D were Autodesk. We know which way they went) A great tool like the open source Blender, however, is still solidly on the creative side. We have to let go of the illusion that for-profit companies are our friends, no matter what charm offensive they stage. They will try to rope us in as franchisees.

Why should I continue to use Affinity Suite for just one more hour if they switch to the subscription model, and everyone knows that this will happen? Then I might as well go to Adobe. It's just not interesting. The champagne corks are popping at Adobe right now. (Translated with DeepL)

When I switch to the Designer Persona in Publisher 2, I cannot select the nodes of a shape by holding down the mouse button. I have to click on them individually. If I open the document directly in Designer 2, it works. I assume that this is a bug in the Publisher. Does anyone have any ideas? Is it the same for others? Thank you very much, Carsten

+1 I love working with Affinity, but I still carry an old Illustrator CS6 on my setups because AF Designer lacks such important features as Adobe's Gradient Mesh. Until now I have avoided the Adobe subscription. But if a comparable function is not included in the next Affinity major release, my next budget will probably go to the competitor again. It's a shame that so little has happened. Mesh gradients are not a nice to have for illustrators in the 21st century, they are essential! Ich arbeite gern mit Affinity, schleppe aber auf meinen Setups noch immer eine alte Illustrator CS6 mit, weil im AF Designer so wichtige Funktionen wie Adobes Gradient Mesh fehlen. Bis jetzt habe ich das Adobe Abo vermieden. Wenn eine vergleichbare Funktion im nächsten Affinity Major-Release nicht dabei ist, geht mein nächstes Budget aber wohl wieder an den Mitbewerber. Es ist schade, dass so wenig passiert ist. Mesh Gradient sind für Illustratoren im 21. Jahrhundert kein Nice to have, sie sind essentiell!

Ich benutze USB. Im Gerätemanager steht ein eigener "Wacom WinUSB Driver". Der müsste mit dem Wacom Update ja aktuell gehalten werden. Ich danke Dir ersteinmal sehr für deine Unterstützung! I use USB. There is a separate "Wacom WinUSB Driver" in the device manager. This should be kept up to date with the Wacom update. Thank you very much for your support!

Bei der Eingabemethode habe ich nur 2 Optionen: "Niedrige Präzision" und "Hohe Präzision". Die Einstellung "Niedrige Präzision" führt aber auch zu keiner Verbesserung. Ein Wechslel auf WARP und wieder zurück auf die NVIDIA Karte hat ebenfalls zu keiner Verbesserung geführt. For the input method, I have only 2 options: "Low precision" and "High precision". However, the Low Precision setting does not lead to any improvement either. Switching to WARP and back to the NVIDIA card did not improve anything either.

I need help with the use of vector lines. If I draw a line quickly, I hardly have any delay. If I draw the same shape slowly, it takes forever to render the line. With the same number of nodes! Tablet drivers (Wacom Intuos-Pro) are up to date. When I draw with the mouse, the effect is not so strong. Graphics brushes in the pixel persona do not cause any problems. Does anyone have experience with this problem? Ich benötige Hilfe bei der Verwendung von Vektorlinien. Zeichne ich eine Linie schnell, habe ich kaum Verzögerung. Zeichne ich die gleiche Form langsam, dauert es ewig, bis die Linie gerendert ist. Bei gleicher Anzahl von Knoten! Tablet-Driver (Wacom Intuos-Pro) sind aktuell. Wenn ich mit der Maus zeichne, ist der Effekt nicht so stark. Grafikpinsel in der Pixelpersona machen keine Probleme. Hat jemand Erfahrungen mit diesem Problem? Delay.mp4

I don't know how reliably this works, but I'm just getting my publisher to work on my Win 7 computer after major problems: (Translated with DeepL, the terms may be different in the English speaking operating system). Windows > Start > Program Icon > right mouse button > Properties > Compatibility > Compatibility Mode -> Windows 7

Hello, how can I downgrade my installation. The 1.10 does not work on my Windows 7 machine. Photo and Designer crash after a short time. Publisher does not start at all. How can I restore the previous version without having to reinstall all the brushes and assets?

Hello. I have a problem understanding the brush settings. Whenever I draw a new stroke with a vector brush, Affinity Designer has forgotten the settings. I have to reapply the settings for each stroke. I want to be able to set the brush pressure once and then use it again and again. Can anyone help me? Brush-Problem.mp4

When using the Intuos 4 tablet under AD 1.8.4, a brush stroke appears far from the cursor. I had to install the previous version 1.8.3 again.

Ah, I missed that. I read and write via deepl translation because my English is so weak. So I quickly miss content-related connections. Many greetings

Why is it that here, under the title "Any future plans for Mesh Tool like in Illustrator" suddenly discussed the escape function? The above topic is much more important, don't you think?

Is there any information from Affinity about this topic? I think AD is quite good, but without a mesh gradient it is just not a full vector program.

When I select text this way, there is no option to convert it to paths. The idea of MickRose has helped

A fine idea, I should have thought of that ☺️ It works. I should like that! Thanks for the help.

Oh, I forgot to specify. Yes, I use the Publisher

Can not select linked text fields across multiple pages together. But if I convert the text to curves only in the first frame, the original text moves to the next text box. How can I convert multiple text boxes (across multiple pages) into paths?

Hi, I'm only getting an approximate result on these settings. Far away from what I know from Photoshop. But no problem, I am glad that Affinity is an alternative!

here you are selection-problem.avi

Ich habe das gleiche Problem. Farbe ist ausgewählt, der Befehl "Ausgewählte Farbe markieren" markiert aber die gesamte Ebene. Gibts hier inzwischen eine Lösung?

Ich kann bei den Ebenen (Layern) keinen Befehl "Sichtbar zusammenführen" finden. Ich habe es jetz anders gelöst: Gruppieren --> Rastern Vielen Dank.

Hallo ich war so naiv mitten in einem Projekt ein Update auf 1.7 zu machen. Jetzt möchte ich im Designer mehrere Ebenen zusammenfügen. Das ging im Ebenenpanel via RTM -> Sichtbare zusammenlegen. Die Funktion scheint aber ersatzlos gestrichen zu sein. Hat jemand eine Idee, wie der neue Workflow aussieht.

Ah, fine then I know. Many thanks and a Merry Christmas!
