[How to create an infinite sized canvas in AD]

Hello @MiLeung

Go to View -> Show Grid

That only toggles the grid on the object. I am looking for a way to have a grid drawn infinitely in all direction so I am not constrained by canvas size. I'm also trying to create the infinite canvas grid without having to going through the multi step process of creating an object, etc.

[How to create an infinite sized canvas in AD]

I'd like to create a canvas of infinite size where I can just draw anywhere. This would be useful when creating something like a mind map. I found an old post about infinite canvases, and what I had to do was first create a canvas of fixed size, create an object in the canvas, select the object, then "convert object to artboard".

 

This works-ish, but how do you get the grid lines drawn infinitely as well?

[Can you change the way SVG properties are exported]

When I export an svg, the properties on the svg and path tags look like 

style="fill-rule:evenodd;clip-rule:evenodd;stroke-linecap:round;stroke-linejoin:round;"

but I am using SVGs inside React components which require me to manually change these properties to 

fillRule="evenodd"
clipRule="evenodd"
strokeLinecap="round"
strokeLinejoin="round"

Is there a way to do this automagically with AD?

[How do you wrap text without having to manually press return?]

Let's say you have a square that you want to type text into. How do you make the text wrap to a new line when a word reaches the left side of the square?

[How do you make logo guidelines?]

I'm completely new to using Affinity Designer or making logos, so please correct me if I'm using incorrect terminology.

 

I noticed that a lot of company branding resources show how their branding involves variables and math. For example, Twitter and Product Hunt.

 

How do you make designs that use variables and math? For example, making a triangle with A, B, and C degrees or drawing a line from the midpoint of another line. I am coming from Fusion 360 which is very manufacturing oriented (and has very little overlap with AD), so precise angles and lengths are very easy to specify, but AD seems to be a lot more freehand oriented.

[DXF or DWG file import in Affinity Designer]

A lot of times I'll use Fusion 360 to design something because of it's use of constraints and precise measurements and then export a sketch as a dxf. Would be nice to import a dxf file into AD and modify it further.
