Can draw/edit hidden layers
Phojoegraphy replied to debraspicher's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
Ugh. I sincerely can't believe this design mistake still exists in V2. -

I know Apple's sandboxing is an issue, but it would have been great to have a few bulk export options from the V1 iPad apps to unload: all custom brushes, all installed fonts, all assets etc. to the files app so we can more easily install them in V2. Doing this one at a time is ridiculously time consuming. And there is no option to export a font.

(Copied my response in a V1 thread here for visibility in V2.) It's very useful for freehand warping, but anything structured, (like for typography when you need symmetry & verticals/horizontals to stay true,) it is a bit of a chore to use. We need more behaviors and tools: 1. The nodes to be able to snap with modifier key like a regular node. Vertical, horizontal, 45 degrees. 2. Have a toggle or modifier for symmetrical node behavior both in same direction and opposite directions. 3. Better presets that are easier to edit. Employing a special node like the shape tools use would be extremely useful for preset use. This way we can make flag, raised edge, and warps that need symmetry with ease. (See Vector Styler). Vector Styler easily remains the gold standard for best implemented vector warping, especially for type, IMO. There are so many options and they take literal seconds to employ. It is still faster to copy from Designer, warp in VS and paste back in Designer than it is to manually move every node for an envelope distort where you need to ensure vertical/horizontal lines stay true, (ex. for a raised edge or flag type effect). I urge the Affinity devs to give it a close look and see about employing similar usability.

After years of begging, pleading and demanding, we finally have vector warping. I'm very happy to finally have it, but I honestly can't say I like it very much for every use.

3. More presets with sliders for different classic envelope distortions - typically those used for typography like; flag, rising side warp, etc. 4. Add modification key to allow symmetrical warping (ex. pull nodes on left and right side toward center at same time). 5. Allow option for node snapping (ex. level with another node,) when editing mesh. 6. Allow options for 45 and 90 degree movement lock when moving nodes or handles while holding SHIFT.

Nice work. I did a double take when I saw Fallon. Didn't expect to see her in the Affinity forums.

Round Brush Edge Problem (AP1.10.1)
Phojoegraphy replied to Phojoegraphy's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
I understand why it happens, hence my post above. It's just mind boggling why someone thought it was a good idea to have it work like that in the first place. In my years of using Photoshop, I never had to look to turn wet edges off on a brush that doesn't invoke it because it inherited it from a previous brush. For as slick as the UI in Affinity apps is, this behavior is baffling. -

Round Brush Edge Problem (AP1.10.1)
Phojoegraphy replied to Phojoegraphy's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
@MEB @Chris B I found the issue/bug that's plaguing me. Let's say for example, I use a basic round brush with no wet edge. If I then select a brush that uses wet edges and then go back to that same basic round brush, wet edges remains selected. The only way to fix this behavior that I can see is to go into the brush settings and change it to "set wet edges off" which is a pain to do if one has potentially dozens or hundreds of brushes. (This is using Photo 1.10.4 on M1 iMac.) -
Round Brush Edge Problem (AP1.10.1)
Phojoegraphy replied to Phojoegraphy's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
Looks like regardless of the brush wet edge settings, if it's checked on the menu bar, it behaves this way. Don't remember it working this way prior to 10.1 -
I noticed a brush issue in 1.10 and 1.10.1 where despite the settings, the basic round brush itself is not 100% opaque at the center and there is a hard opaque ring around the edge at every hardness setting. All brush dynamics are zeroed out. No textures or sub-brushes used. Same results using Mouse or Tablet. Wet edges are zeroed out. It's negatively affecting photo retouching and drawing. (MacOS 11.5.1 M1 iMac)
