  1. Recently purchased the above pack in the Affinity sale. Does anyone have any tutorials, worked examples or tips showing how to utilise this package? Contacted the developer who could not help.
  2. Dear Team/Participants I have recently started having startup or loading issues in regarding to both Affinity Photo and Designer, which previously was loading fine. I have followed many forum advise from the net. But to no avail and that’s why I have jointed this group for the first time. I have tried to find solutions through this forum, but found it overwhelming as a beginner on this site. Please advise on other possible solutions other than double tapping with a single finger for the reset mode list. Cuz I have tried different combinations of resets that’s listed. Kind Ragard Edgar
  3. bug 表现:钢笔工具中断,具体表现看视频。 软件 :只测试了affinity designer 其他两个软件你们可以测试一下, 版本:2.4.1 复现方法: 1.打开designer 并新建文件, 2.切换为钢笔工具,并打开 "创建新曲线时保留远取项" 选项, 3.使用钢笔工具,当绘制第二个闭合路径时,发生钢笔工具终止bug。 4.操作系统:windows 11 最新版 5.硬件加速开启状态 (弱弱的问一下🥲🥲🥲🥲,affinity 什么时候能支持中文竖排) bkATCexUtM.mp4

  5. How do you create different grids in Affinity without doing things ridiculously hard? I'm not talking about the grid in the background. Yes, I know the hard way of doing it, but there's got to be a much easier way. I like to make a grid and then use a combine tool, which I guess is "Shape builder tool" in Affinity, to make logos. I attached a picture of some of the different grid types if you don't know what I'm talking about. How about an easier way to make/have Fibonacci squares/spiral/Circles aka golden ration squares/spiral/Circles? Anyone know how to do that in the least painful possible way? If you know a process let me know and if you know a process on the iPad app too (if it's different) on how to do it there too. Thanks everyone! _____________________________________________________ My computer specs if needed.

  6. Hi, On Mac Monterey, Designer and Photo 2.4.1 don't show newly opened or created documents, after you have closed the background window. 1. Close all the document windows. 2. Close the blank, background window, to avoid it to block seeing everything that is on the back in the other apps. 3. Crete or open a new document. No window can be seen in Photo or Designer. The documents are there, since when closing the app you are asked if you want to save them, but you can't see them. To start seeing documents again, you have to relaunch the app. Paolo (who would like some more love for the Apple UI guidelines )
  7. I have looked through the forums, the support pages, and watched a couple YouTube videos, but I haven't found the best method of accomplishing my task. In summary, I want to take a .jpeg image, and cut out the background of spaces outside the image, and inside the image. Then I want to export to SVG. I want the background of all the spots I've cutout to be transparent. With the methods listed below, my image cutouts are not transparent on the exported SVG. My image is a case. sample.afdesign is attached. I am using Affinity Designer V2 at the moment because I found the most documentation and methods around using this software. The methods I have found and tried are. using the pen tool to draw around the case, give the curve a fill, and then from the layer drop down I made it an erase layer. Visually it looks to do the job, but the exported SVG does not show that area cut out. I tried the Pixel Persona selection brush tool to select the portions of the background that differed from the black of the case. That seemed to work well until I got to the portions of the image where the background was very similar to the case. I had to touch up the edges / stroke with the eraser brush to remove the boarder. I found that I can use the pen tool to make a shape of a section that I want to cut out, choose invert selection to get the piece I want, but I am not sure what to do with it from there. From what I am reading, I feel like a need a method of making the shape of the area I want to cut out, make a mask, then delete the mask. Or flatten the mask and the image I am working with. I don't completely understand the usage of a mask, so I am trying to figure that out as well. If it helps, in the past I used fireworks to accomplish the task with the pen tool, converting that to a marquee, cutting out whatever was within the marquee, and making another shape. I refuse to go back to that. I bought the whole Affinity suite, so if another tools is more efficient I can go that route as well. Thanks in advance for any help. sample.afdesign
  8. Hi When I look for a typo sometimes affinity gets stuck on the color wheel, I need to force quit the application, then lost my work and my time. But the biggest issue is Affinity designer get totally lost after that looking for a License... I need to come here see if there is a solution, I think I try to disable all my fronts to relaunch but its really lot of time lost. Don't know what your software is checking but blocking the starting I not a good idea, I need to work. Please can you fix this issue Its not the first time happen. I am on M3Pro with the last infinity update I use standard Google Font activabled by Typeface, Thanks
  9. Hi everyone, and happy Easter! I record this tutorial on how to draw a Torus Eye mandala in Affinity Designer. I hope you guys find it interesting.
  10. I am new to Affinity designer and am strugling to get used to it. I am trying to export a floorplan to pdf but the corners on the straight lines are missing in the pdf file. (i've attached a copy of the pdf and screen print from affinity). The lines were originally individually drawn. I then tried ?snapping where I stopped changed direction and carried on. Neither resolved the problem. I've also watched an old Affinity video for drawing plans. I couldn't find a solution. There is a red line around the outside of the walls. I tried deleting them and re exporting but got the same result. Is there a way around this? RdSap plan 1st.pdf
  11. Hello! I am currently doing my trial on Affinity and it has a lot of things I love using. On designer 2 that is. I have used inkscape before and am considering the leap here but one thing inkscape had that I love was a create snapping function. It was so easy to get anything into place with it able to line of up things at angles. Like if I have a half circle and a line and I want them to connect, it was so easy to snap them into place as the nodes hooked onto each other with a snap! Now I am trying the snapping function on Designer 2 and it does not do that as I keep trying. Given this is professionally made with more money behind I have a hard time believing the issue is the program, but the issue has to be me. So my question is, how do I turn it so I can make different objects line up up and snap in place more? Like this example and even more ones where the edges of objects, even strokes, snap into place against each other and so on. Am I missing something as I played around with it and it just fails and I am certain I am the dummy here. Thank you for your time!
  12. Hi everyone, I'm exporting some artwork to PDF and I'm unable to export one layer as a layer. The results is that all but one layer export as expected and the contents of one layer appear at the top level and not as a layer. Here's the setup in Designer: And here is the result when opened in Acrobat Reader: The Photo layer is missing. The Photo Layer contents appear at the top level so this might not be a showstopper but I'm curious as to why it didn't export. Any thoughts?

  17. I’ve recently tried to open a Photoshop(.psd) file in Affinity Designer. The file could successfully been opened in Photoshop, but not in Affinity Designer. Also the size of it hasn’t been big(2 MB). When I pressed open -> open document from the menu and selected a file, It has imported it successfully, but then it said loading file, and the app crashed. I tried both opening and importing document, but neither helped. I restarted the app, even the device, but still couldn’t open that file. Each time I press on it - the app crashes. I don’t know whether the issue occurs in other Affinity apps, but in Designer it exists for sure. I ask developers to fix importing/opening psd files in Affinity Designer on IPad. Thank you, in advance! Buttons.psd
  18. Hello. I encountered very specific problem I can't find solution to. I am creating sewing cutting patterns. And I wanted to export the file with layers so people can print only the size they are interested in. It should work like this - you have pattern with multiple sizes and in layers you can choose which one you want to see/print. This was created and exported in Illustrator and works as expected. But when I try to export the same thing in AD, the layers on multiple pages are not linked - meaning you'd have to select the visible layer for every page of the document separately. You can see when I am in the middle of two pages I see all the layers of every page but it should be just one layers for all twenty something pages of the document. I also created super simple documents simulating my issue since I am not able to upload the screenshotted document itself. Is there any setting to make the "layers linked" across all the pages or is it something than can not be done in AD? Thank for any kind of help. A4 .pdf A4 Print Template.afdesign
  19. I want to create with Affinity Designer a gradient mesh. In order to be able to define a brand specific texture, I am experimenting. The texture shall be used in Powerpoint slides but also on large prints like banners. So I must work in a way that it does not raster the image, because I want to scale it infinitly. Unfortunatelly you see in the Texture.pdf that the gaussian blur applied on the shape does not exist any more. Only the color gradients work in the PDF. If I export to SVG, then the gaussian blur exits. Also if I bring the SVG to Powerpoint and Export the Powerpoint as PDF, then the shape is blured correctly. So I assume this must be an export error in the Affinity Designer 2.4. Can you please help? I have posted the export menu screen shots so you may see whether any adjustment should be made, to get it to work. Thank you. Texture.pdf Texture.afdesign Texture.svg
  20. I’m trying to find an answer to this and can’t seem to, but I would hope there is one. I am using Designer 2.x on my iPad Pro and when I select a shape tool, such as the circle, and draw some circles, then click the selection arrow tool to move some things around. The shape tool automatically switches back to the square instead of staying on the circle (or whatever shape I had selected). How can I stop it from reverting like that? I want it to remain on the shape I was drawing with. In my Settings I already have “Synchonize Tools Between Documents” checked. Although, I wouldn’t think that has anything to do with this anyway. Additionally, how can I make the pen tool keep the settings I was using to draw with on the iPad? Thank you.
  21. Our popular Affinity Designer Neon Brushes just got a whole lot better! What's new about the pack? we've completely reworked the brushes - revisiting the real neon tube source material to create a vastly superior look. A set of time-saving Affinity Glow Styles has been added - use these to add glows to your design instantly! We've also added a set of handy background gradients. >>GET IT HERE<< Or keep scrolling to learn more. Once again, the Artifex Forge has been on an urban adventure - exploring the city's bright lights to bring you better design resources! This time I've been searching for the best neon tubes to bring this super-realistic set of neon brushes and neon glow effects to life. If you find existing neon effects limiting, lifeless and a little unrealistic, this is the perfect set for you. Most are entirely computer-generated and therefore lack the lifelike qualities and quirks of genuine neon tubing. With these brushes, you can really give your design the wow-factor. So, why are they so much better? True-to-life: they are sourced from real neon tubing, so no flat, lifeless vector neon effects. Multiple highlight options: this recognizes that when you have a group of neon tubes together, they illuminate each other, creating more highlights. Flexibility: being brushes, they're malleable giving you more scope to create the images you want. Fun: you're drawing with neon tubing... what more can I say? Get the pack HERE and start creating Affinity Neon signs today! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Learn how to create the sausage dog illustration in our tutorial HERE!
