Here is an archived version of the article before it got paywalled https://archive.is/tpn6p so everyone can read it. Exactly what's on my mind. Also it's exactly the reason why artists are mad and starting to ai-poison their artworks. EU just started talking about control of ai and its usage, let's hope they will take us in account. Hollywood lobby got their way around video piracy, we should want to do the same to protect us. Especially for those who use LAION-5B dataset for their commercial ai models. Well, I personally am not fan of the takeover and worry that Affinity as we know it will cease to exist and will be turned into something different. I switched back to Adobe CC for my business needs when I saw no real progress in V2, yet I still use sometimes for some small personal projects, just because I'm sorry to let the money I've spent on it and the many add-ons burn. We'll see if the pledge is true and Canva will help Serif to grow Affinity to a better suite.

Sadly, not at all. Thank you for mentioning this, @v_kyr, what a shame you posted this into Feedback section instead of bug section though. Also, severity of this bug is so serious that Serif should issue an update to the whole V1 line as well... Honorable mention: @Patrick Connor

Batch Job, persistant settings
CLC replied to K2021's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on Desktop
I have to completely agree. Also ability to drag and drop files from finder/explorer directly to the batch job dialog would be ux-wise decision. -

CLC replied to MikeTO's topic in [ARCHIVE] Photo beta on Windows threads
Hi @MikeTO - oops, there's something wrong with the table, since my username is attributed to a Macbook Pro 13 early 2015 - I should be named one row above with my Macbook Pro 15 2019 -

Frequency Separation
CLC replied to BiteMe's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi @BiteMe, welcome to the forums. You first have to click the DEVELOP button to develop the photo, then you'll be taken from the develop persona to the photo persona where you can use rest of the tools like mentioned frequency separation and/or other tools within other AP personas. Hope this helps. -
+1 and also for desktop versions of the apps

Hi @15cv88, welcome to the forums. Yes indeed. If you want to use Photo or Designer personas (aka Studio Link) in Affinity Publisher, you need to have corresponding applications installed.

"Select same" objects within Artboard
CLC replied to Subclavius's topic in Feedback for Affinity Designer V1 on Desktop
Many people requested this (and more) back in September 2020, when @MattP asked users to post optional extra requests for the feature that was just in beta back then. No response, I guess the requests weren't interesting enough ๐ -
I think you're missing the point here, @Mithferion ๐ The way AI handles overprint is object (property) based while in Affinity it's colour-based. The object oriented system is imo way more logical, you could easily want to overprint the same colour at one place of the document, while having it knocked-out in other part. Overprint preview is a must also, without any doubts... Also, it's not that easy to handle colour swatches in Affinity compared to AI - you can't work with multiple colour swatches at once, and you also can't switch Spot color checkbox anymore, once you've created a Spot color swatch, you can't turn it back to CMYK (or other colour model). The only, and very counter-intuitive way is to create a new swatch, then Select > Same Colour, then change the swatch, later deleting the spot-colour swatch. What a UX I'd say...

[AP/Win+Mac] Tool handles resize (just Mesh Warp Tool)
CLC replied to CLC's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
@Chris B Hi, the issue still present in 1.10.x. It happens when Preferences > Tools > Smallest is set. The worst thing is that if you want to use the handles while zoomed in, you have to hit the precise pixel in the middle of the handle (and that's nearly impossible). Also, may I ask you to move this thread back to https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/78-photo-bugs-found-on-windows/? so it's not easily missed, as it still affects the current version, and not just pre-1.9 versions? Thanks in advance for looking at it. -

Affinity Publisher Customer Beta - 1.9.2.998
CLC replied to AdamW's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
@AdamW @Jon P Same goes for Replacing placed PDF files via Resource Manager. They don't keep the size, nor position. Also when replacing a resource that is placed multiple times, only one is replaced, the rest of placed images vanish and Publisher displays only empty frames. When replacing with Replace Image button in the context toolbar, all the images are replaced, however they change the size (keeping the position though). Been like that since 1.9 release. It's a pretty nasty bug for a DTP software ๐. Bug Report (reported for Windows but the same issue occurs on macOS). -
