Thanks, corrected

Just had the developer come back raising about why the PSDs don't contain font information, I'm afraid to ask but is there anything firm on when this will be resolved? It's frankly a little embarassing to have to break dev's regular workflow because AD rasterizes it's fonts in the PSDs it creates.
-
Could you kindly elaborate on your answer? Did you mean you found a workaround to make the PSD text actually editable?
-
Thank you both.

Hi MEB, thanks, but no it's still not working. My steps are Click MOVE tool Open LAYERS panel Click CMD Select ARTBOARD I wish to duplicate Drag ARTBOARD to CANVAS Result: No instance created.
-
OK tried this several times, and CMD + drag doesn't create an new instance. CTRL J does copy artboard but doesn't include the guides. Please can you give some guidance here. Thanks
-
Is duplicating artboards with guides intact something that is pencilled to be done? Somewhat daunting to have to copy artboards and redo all guides (

Collapse Layer Group (layers panel)
jamesholden replied to aekorps's topic in Feedback for the V1 Affinity Suite of Products
Agree with a fair bit here, especially about thst AD should automatically collapse and automatically close layers. -
Thanks, that helps.

Guys is 1.7.1 considered a stable release or better to hold off? Can I run it alongside 1.6 or go back to 1.6? I'm using it for production.
-
OK, thank you
-
Can someone please show me some examples of the 'striking creative effects' that the manual speaks of? Trying to make sense of the crdativeuse for this panel.

Welcome Rocco, yes a strong case could be made for the implementation of niche requests like these. In part a strong challenge to Illustrator could be good for us all, but to be frank, as stated elsewhere, Serif have a firm roadmap in place and though extensions (plug-ins) generally were slated to be actioned they may not appear any time soon in AD— think 2020 with betas possibly Q4 2019 — and I should know, I too wanted this passionately. N.B. Add to this that your particular plug-in is not listed at all, and so honestly their are no guarantees as to when it might appear, barring some 3rd party providing it it's down to Serif.
-
Nope, this apparently is it. Several may indeed agree, but sadly there is not anything more sophisticated elsewhere.
-
PS I am not familiar with Serif's style of roadmaps, but hopefully this is what you meant
-
I cannot answer on the ease of integration but as stated Serif have a roadmap, and appear to be quite dogged about it's implementation. It's likely therefore that the implementation of this and/or other highly requested features are dependent only on their place in Serif's vision for Designer, as opposed to the feature's relative complexity and even level of demand (as this thread may highlight).
-
I think we may need to face up to the realisation this, and some other, highly requested features may not appear in any 2019 release much less in 1.8— it's a request dating back ~5 years and still has no fixed ETA, so best go with your plan B on this one. Seeing the posts here makes me feel that many may be holding out in hope above reason, as it's apparent Serif, as is their right, clearly have different priorities or focus. That being said, still rooting for AD, IMO Illustrator needs an equal in the marketplace.
-
Plug-ins are a biggie for me as stated before, they have raised it may/will come in some form, but haven't given any firm dates and it's very possible a stable version may only be 2020

Thanks Gear Maker.

Control handles
jamesholden replied to Angelos58's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on iPad Questions
I think I can possibly can. As raised elsewhere, when trying to draw line + curved shapes and needing price curve shapes being able to determine exactly how much the cotrol points are extend or moved could help no end in. Surprising how much I need this. -
Has anything been actioned here? Not the OP's specific request but I too simply want to create line + curve vectors but precisely. i.e. create a line with the pen tool and completely control curves made from it.
-
Hello, has anything been confirmed on this? It's somewhat time consiming to have to collapse so many layers individually.
