Microsoft Windows Developer Awards 2018
Alfred replied to Mark Ingram's topic in News and Information
Eight hours ago Affinity Designer was in the lead with 42% and the other contenders' shares of the vote were 37%, 15% and 6%. The gap has widened considerably since then: it's now 53% against 29%, 12% and 6%. -
I think you must have misunderstood me. I'm not disputing your claim that you have received notifications at the email address associated with your forum username "American": all I'm saying is that you will have received Affinity Store notifications at an email address (at Yahoo, or Gmail, or whatever) rather than at your "American" username as such. Apologies for any confusion caused by my pedantry!

LOL. I understood the "Yasss", which is clearly just a corruption of an emphatic "Yes", and I understood the "woohoo", but what I didn't understand was the "developer access granted" part of your post. We already had developer access before @Ben created this thread, and we've had developer access specifically in relation to Ben's "sneak peeks" ever since he created it, so his saying that he would have to talk to @MattP about some things doesn't mean we now have developer access which we didn't have before.

I hope they have some nice swimming pools in Seattle! -
I don’t understand that remark. Please explain!

What age marks? Are you referring to the wonderful wood-grain effect, or is there something I’ve overlooked??

We can already convert an ordinary path into a selection marquee (but not the other way around). We don’t have cutting paths yet, of course.

Nicely done, as usual, Dan! It should probably come with a ‘flashing images’ warning, but it’s only six seconds long. -

Voted. Being me, I couldn’t help noticing the apostrophe missing from the contraction of the words “it is” in the description (“... whether its for marketing materials ...”) but I wasn’t going to let that stop me. Besides, there’s a much worse error in the description of a rival product, a writing tool which “includes a variety of stationary”! At the time of writing, Affinity Designer is in the lead with 42%, with the other contenders at 37%, 15% and 6%. -
I haven’t tried this, Dylan, but from your description it looks to me as though each circle must be centred on a vertex of a smaller, similar triangle which itself is centred on the original one. Duplicate the existing triangle, shrink it while holding down Shift to maintain its aspect ratio, and then also hold down Ctrl to resize it from the centre; I think you should find that snapping the centres of the circles to the vertices of the new triangle will give you the result that you want.

Happy birthday, @MattP!! -
One trick you can use for alignment of overlapping edges when manually creating a panorama is to set the blend mode of the upper layer to ‘Screen’. I don’t see why the same trick wouldn’t work for aligning a stack of images, but I haven’t actually tried it! (Don’t forget to change the blend mode back to ‘Normal’ when you’ve finished.)
-
As noted above, ‘Add’ is the closest available. For opaque images the effect should be the same as ‘Linear Dodge’, but if there are any semi-transparent regions in the image a different kind of alpha-blending is used and therefore the result will differ.

Fantastic work, Daz. Although the storyline and illustration style are very different, the story has echoes of Chris Van Allsburg’s wonderful book ‘The Polar Express’.
