Hi, I recently updated both Designer and Publisher to the latest version and I have noticed that the CMYK profiles ISO Coated v2 and ISO Coated v2 300% are now missing. Any idea why? (Is Euroscale Coated v2 the same as ISO Coated v2 - see attachment?) Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

Every eps file I import into Affinity Designer 2 looks awful. The graphics are separated into unusual sections and gradients and shadows are changed (misplaced or redrawn) and some graphic elements look as though they have been rasterized (The graphic no longer appears smooth and well drawn.... they look pixelated). Every single eps I've tried to import turns out this way. Is there a setting that needs to be adjusted? Not sure how useful Designer will be if it can't handle eps files. Please help. I've attached and eps and a jpg of the same file to you can see the two and how Designer is treating the eps. Daniel Christmas background blue v kr.eps

I have the two stars on the left and I would like to get the result on the right (same strokes visible but the whole thing is transparent). In this particular case, I used the shape subtract function to subtract the frontmost star from the star in the back and then pasted another star in and made everything transparent. This sort of works, but in my actual case i have about 30 shapes drawn on top of each other and this is not really a feasible workflow. I also fiddled around with the "erase" blending mode but this doesn't properly export to SVG, so I cannot use this either. Is there some way to achieve this result without manually editing each involved shape?

Hi, Suppose I have many small objects scattered and selected all over the canvas (objects belong to different groups , etc.). Now when they are all selected, I know that 50% of the screen should not be selected. How do I deselect 50% of the screen easily, sort of like with a lasso tool just by going around area that I do not need?

If your design has hundreds of objects, select similar objects can be very difficult…but it's easy with the Select Same feature. In this video we’ll look at how to select objects with the same fill, stroke, shape, and more.

A quick one keeping things simple, a few conical gradients etc. Might tidy things up if I decide I like it.

I have run into a small almost non-issue. At my place of employment we use utilize custom made name plates. I make them for a lot of people. Generally, I print them on card stock, and then trim them down using a paper cutter. Problem is, sometimes I don't cut exactly perfect. To make them fit in the holders sometimes requires a lot of manual trimming at the end. This led me to do some searching on Google about full bleed prints. While I knew of full bleed before, I never thought about treating these name plates in a similar manner. So today, I create a document with many art boards. I include a bleed of 0.125 inches (1/8"). I attempt to print one of the art boards with the bleed marks, and the print does not have a bleed area. I see the bleed mark, but the color does not go into the bleed area. I created a new file, added bleed marks, and it did print into the bleed area. I have noticed through numerous test it seemed to affect art boards, despite having a bleed set. Is this a bug, or "working as designed"? Does any body know how to not have this happen? Thanks in advance, Robby

Hats off to you pure vectorists out there. I keep trying! But I got to say I am enjoying seamlessly leveraging both Vecotor and Rastor graphics in the same image. All on the ipad no less! https://www.instagram.com/p/BmRAerOAluz/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

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.

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.

In my office, I have been using illustrator with a wacom tablet for the last three years and everything works well. But for my personal use, I decided to buy Affinity Designer and a XP-PEN Deco pro tablet, because of my budget. I'm also using a macbook pro 15 2016. If you are on this case, you may see that default settings are not well suited. It seems to me that there is a lot of causes for this. At least I can name two: the entire conception of Affinity Designer with Design and Pixel Personas implies that you have a lot of shortcuts that you cannot find in adobe. it seems that there is not yet a collaboration between xp-pen and affinity. Unfortunately, this companies are behind the reality of new creators in this postpandemic times. Guys, we don't have money ! If you are trying to develop products for us, you need to work together!! Well, I am really far of being an expert, but I may contribute a little bit with you guys, if you are looking for some settings to make things happen : First of all, I am only using settings on the PenTablet application (Version 3.2.3) : Pen Settings: in the pressure adjustement, select the "soft" hardness pen/eraser (this will only works in pixel persona) : customize input from keyboard => E Shortcuts "Move Tool" in Design Persona : Customize input from keyboard => B "Pen Tool" in Design Persona : Customize input from keyboard => P "Node Tool" in Design Persona : Customize input from keyboard => A "Undo" : Customize input from keyboard => Command + Z Default Settings for Space Hand Tool (K4), Save (K5) Show Control Panel (K7) and Switch Roller Function (K8) are working well Roller/Touch : Zoom: Command + / Command - Rotate: Option R / Option Shift R Scroll (by default it is working as zoom): I didn't find a shortcut Brush Size: increase => [ decrease => ] Touch: Mouse mode All references you need to find your own settings could be found on Affinity Designer > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts If you have some other ideas, I will be following this workaround. All my best !
