I open an image and it's automatically locked. Is there quicker way to unlock it than opening (then closing) the Layers panel?

Decided to do this without blurs again whilst trying to keep it realistic. It made some things trickier but saved the time in not having to set a million blurs. Used AD v2 for the warped text.

This has been a problem in V1 and unfortunately there has been little improvement in this area. The problem is that Designer (other Affinity apps too) frequently crashes when working with styles. Crashes and hangups often occur when I open another category, which gives me the spinning beach ball, and most of the time I have to force quit the app. Creating, re-ordering, deleting and re-naming styles is also very slow and buggy, and causes frequent crashes as well. It seems to me this part of Designer is just not very well developed and too buggy. Plus it is lacking features, like the ability to edit a style. I hope that there will be improvement in this area soon, as it has been an annoyance for years and has in fact cost me time and work as well.

the font I have problem with is: Seravek It was the default font on my mac. Once upon a time I've updated macos and found that they delete the font from the system, so I reinstalled it to my mac manually but anyway affinity designer doesn't see the font (other apps see) I need that font, how to make it work? -
I tried posting this problem in another support category previously and got no responses, so hopefully I will get someone in customer support to help me figure out this problem. Whenever I try to use most of the vector brushes in designer, they are very sluggish and will bog down my processor to the point that it crashes designer. It was worse when I had hardware acceleration enabled, but it still doesn't work without hardware acceleration to the point that I can't really use vector brushes. I have a fairly new HP All in One PC with the following specs. Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700T CPU @ 2.00GHz 2.00 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable) System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch Pen and touch support with 10 touch points Intel UHD Graphics 630 renderer I am using a Wacom Inuos pen tablet. Please help!

I've had an intermittent problem with Designer V2 not saving on the iPad. I noticed shortly after V2 came out that auto-save didn't always work, so I've been manually saving my files every 20 to 30 minutes. I lost 3+ hours of work on an illustration today that I saved manually probably half a dozen times. When I opened it again all of my work was gone. I looked at the file in the folder and it said that the last time it was saved was several hours before, which was the first time I saved after creating the file. So frustrating! I've found V2 much buggier than V1. I hope this gets fixed or I'm going to have to stop using it and I really don't want to do that.

Forgot to share this one, but still happy with it The graphics were fully designed using Affinity Designer and animated using Moho Pro. The music I made using Ableton Live. Hope you like it!

Since (one of the last versions of?) v2 I often see myself searching for the currently selected layer and need to open each and every layer group just to find the layer I'm in, because it doesn't highlight where the layer is at. I don't believe I ever experienced this in v1. Please see video below. How to know where the layer is? So Please add a (blue) highlight to the layer the currently selected layer is inside!! (BTW When working with large files a search option to find a layer by its name would be pretty useful too, but that's another thing) Using Windows 11 Pro, Affinity Designer 2.3.0 [edit] I see now that the screenrec. isn't showing the full screen. But believe me I scrolled through all the layers in the video unable-to-find-layer.mp4 -
Right clicking a swatch created on any document palette created after the first one will no longer have the Edit, Rename and Delete menu entries active. See the image below: Steps to reproduce: Create a new document Create a new document palette, name it 1 for easy reference Create a new global swatch, make it spot to enable the Rename Spot menu too Right click the newly created swatch See that you can edit, rename and delete this swatch Create a new document palette, name it 2 for easy reference Create a new spot global swatch Right click this new swatch, notice the disabled menu items Creating further palettes and swatches Notice the problem continues Video guide below: Swtaches menu.mp4 Thanks!

I know you can save stroke profiles during the period the document is open. But it would be better (for me) to have a permanent save so they are available always.

This is the 2024 prism desk calendar, which is localized for german, english and greek (DE/EN/GR) language and thus allows to switch the calendar languages and print for either of the named languages. - This template can be (re)used in all Affinity apps! The calendar dates used in this template do stem from Mensch Mesch. - The ready glued together calendar looks on a desk like the following, but of course instead with upcoming year 2024 calendar month dates ... ... the A4 Affinity Designer 2024 template looks like this, dependent on the language (DE/EN/GR) switch ... You setup and switch the corresponding language like this for the german (DE) calendar part ... ... or like this for the english (EN) calendar part ... ... or like this for the greek (GR) calendar part ... To add your images into the 2024 prism calendar follow the localized instructions like shown & written on the 2024 calendar. Here's an older shown 2022 prism calendar variation screenshot of where to place the images ... Here's the corresponding 2024 prism calendar AD template file, it's a ADe V1 one, so it can be used with Affinity V1 & V2 apps ... prism_A4_calendar_en_de_gr_2024.afdesign Let's hope that we will have in 2024 world wide better & peaceful times then!

I'm normally using multiple Artboards when designing brand identities. Each Artboard for each part of the identity. Sometimes, at a later stage, brand identities are expanded. In those cases Artboard 10 would sometimes fit best as Artboard 2. Moving and reorganise the Artboards can be done by moving one by one, but it takes time. It would have been much better to be able to reorganised the Artboards by just changing the numbers for Affinity to rearrange them automatically. As far as I understand it's not possible; then this is a feature request. Otherwise I would be happy to learn a way. -

I drew the Celtic Knot in Affinity Designer. To be honest with you, it was quite complicated to do. I used the 'Erase' blend mode, in order to do it. I want, at some point in the future, record a tutorial on how to draw it.

Here’s a video which shows how to make a heptagram which looks like it ‘weaves’ into/through itself in Designer 2 (some of the tools used aren’t in Photo, Publisher or earlier versions of Designer). Some of the functionalities/tools used are: Star Tool (to get the initial shape) Pen Tool (to draw the basic heptagram) Expand Stroke (to get a thick shape) Point Transform Tool (to manipulate some shapes) Shape Builder Tool (to ‘join things up’) It should also work on most similar figures with a ‘low odd-numbered point count’, like pentagrams, etc. Important: Don’t forget to move the origin of the curve to where the guides cross before you start duplicating the curve, otherwise the Point Transform work won’t be right. 2023-12-06 12-53-07.mp4

In AD 2.3.x the alignment of some tools does not work as expected. E.g. lines drawn by pen tool, or Serial Tool. Using e.g. the Heart Tool has no issues. No such problems in AD 1.x Please watch the video ➡️ Line and Brush alignment issues Alignment AD 1.x.afdesign Alignment AD 2.x.afdesign -

My idea of flat, no blurs so tried to blend things in a bit by using shapes and blend modes.

I have noticed that many times when I have multiple objects close to each other they seem to have a small gap when I zoom out. I just now zoomed all the way in and there appears to be a gap. This occurs both when I have the "Move by whole pixel" enabled and disabled in the snapping tool. Here you can see a small gap when I am zoomed out and when zooming really really close you can see the gap be there clearer . Does anyone know why this issue occurs and how to set up the settings to eliminate it. I know the issue goes away when I export the image since the gap is less than a pixel wide but it is annoying not being able to preview your picture without exporting it.

Today I've finished creating designs for Pajamas for some of the Characters of the Animation Short I'm currently working on. Happily used Affinity designer to create these designs!
