I have created a simple design which I hope to use in mapbox as an icon. mapbox requires svg. I export my design to svg but when I load into mapbox, the fill colors are not there. the icon is "there" in my custom styles list but the colors do not appear at all. I have tried multiple different settings on the AD Export More options from the svg export tab (making sure to check Use hex colors, flatten, etc) , but they all have the same result when brought into mapbox. Mapbox has troubleshooting for Illustrator and other problems here - https://docs.mapbox.com/help/troubleshooting/studio-svg-upload-errors/#common-issues I cannot find the equivalent settings for what is suggested for Illustrator in Designer. I also tried to understand the svg file by changing the .svg to .txt and examining it in notepad. I checked the various tags against support / unsupported elements, and I cannot see any problems (admittedly I am not a web designer however) I can see the .svg in both firefox and chrome. Thank you for any help. Windows 10, AD 1.8.2 training.afdesign training_7_unchecksetviewbox.svg -
I brought photo and designer about four years back. I played about with photo but hardly used designer, I don't use them for professional use. Anyhow! With all the free time I/we now have, I brought the Affinity workbook for designer and I started watching youtube tuts on designer too, as the lockdown started, and decided, after watching about a 101 of them, to give it a go. I've created logos and such like with it, but with what I've learned I thought I'd have a go at artwork, and below is what I've come up with. I also used my recently acquired Blast and Xenon brushes. I thought the picture was okay for my first attempt, even if it took me sixteen hours 😶. I now have a new hobby. So thanks Affinity 👍for making such a great piece of software. I recently brought publisher...maybe in about four years I'll get around to using that too. I will also be making more use of the forum and other Affinity hang outs, like the affinity youtube channel, as I try to improve.

Recently I have started painting in Designer. I use a Huion kamvas 16 pro. I have the software up on my main display and basically just the file up on my tablet. I use the tablet's pen on the tablet and configurate brushes and such with my mouse on the other display. Now I have experienced several (4) crashes, losing a lot of progress. These crashes don't work like regular windows crashes but rather make the program freeze in place but dont make it have that white overlay. The only option i have after that is force closing the program. At this point the program will ask if I want to save the file but I can't answer that because the pop-up is on screen for only a split second.

A not so low polygon version of Whistler's Mother by James Abbott McNeill 1871. Which was actually called "Arrangement in Grey and Black No.1", not many people know that.

Hello, I really enjoy designing in vector in AD on my iPad. Unfortunately for a client i need to provide an AI Adobe Illustrator file. I tried exporting in EPS, SVG and PDF but with all 3 options i have unexpected results. The main issue is line width. So i ungrouped everything, and than selected everything, and than pressed - expand stroke - . At this action Affinity Designer instantly crashes. I also tried this in Affinity on my Macbook, same result. What is the best way to solve this or export to AI? thank you so much in advance. -
Hello! This is my first post to the forum. I'm wondering how I could recreate the speech bubble below? I can draw a rectangle with a uniform stroke no problem but how do I get it be skewed like this with the tapering width on the stroke? Does anyone know of any good tutorials out there that would show me this? Thanks in advance!

When I modify a default brush (for example an ink one) I want to duplicate so I can use the variation from now on but it NEVER happens. The app says it’s indeed duplicated in the same brush menu but it never appears.

Are Photoshop brushes and brush presets compatible with Affinity products? -
I have been making scientific illustrations. I like to number the steps by putting the number in a circle. So, first, I make some circles and position them in the illustration. Then I use the text tool to type the numbers I need, which I move into each circle. Nine times out of ten, though, Affinity then crashes. I happens almost each time I do this and the work is lost. I can prevent this by leaving the project and opening another project between each step (presumably this is saving the work, but I dunno.). Then I go back and create the next number and move it into its circle, leave the project, open another, then go back to the original project to add the next number. This seems to work, but it's obviously not the best solution. Is this a bug that needs to be fixed? Or am I doing something wrong? I'm using an iPad Pro, 12.9 inch. Second Generation. OS version 13.3.1 Thank you for any help you may be able to offer.

Hello, I was purchasing Affinity Designer from the site, filled in all forms, entered card number, and press pay with card. Then entered required security code from my bank. After than i was taken back to the ordering page, without any conformation of the order. I also dont have any orders in the order history no there are any links in Downoad section in my profile. But my card was charged for the amount of order. I feel kind of frustrated, how do we proceed from here? I e-mailed to @affinityorders email but still no answer, what should i do? -

I'm using Apple Magic Mouse with "natural scrolling", a.k.a. move content to scrolling direction instead of scroll bars. This probably reverses the intended directionality of input scrolling, but that's all fine by me. I have a question however. If I gesture with the Magic Mouse over an input field, say, character tracking, swiping up decreases, and swiping down increases the value. Great. Now if I want to adjust the value more accurately, I hold shift, right? But now the value only increases when I swipe up OR down, meaning I can't decrease the value with vertical gestures when holding shift! So I figured that with the shift key down I have to swipe left and right instead, that way I can adjust the input accurately to both directions. But if I don't hold shift, swiping horizontally only increases the value. If I try swiping with my trackpad, well, it gets even more confusing, and I don't know how to describe it. Maybe somebody with a trackpad could give it a try? So what's the intended workflow to adjust input fields using 2d gestures with devices like Magic Mouse or trackpad? -
I got this 2 transparent png letters. How do you make favicons and logos with this using two letters initials like for me my it will be the initial JT. Do I resize the letters first or do I resize the final image? What are the documents sizes? The best way to export? File format? Any ideas?

Where can I find information on how to effectively use this Font Super family with 200 styles? What's the use of having such huge amount of styles for a font?

So far I've figured out this: In order to make pixel art (which would look something like this), I use Pixel Persona mode then create a square brush and then click on the Pixel Tool. Yes, I've turned on the grid and snapping, but I can't seem to draw the way I would want a pixel brush to draw. It's a bit hard for me to describe but I want the brush to move less like a painting brush and more like its snapping to the grid. This free drawing program is the best example I could find (just click New Drawing and test it out for yourself) of the way the brush moves which makes it so much easier to make pixel art. I also attached a video that might help understand what I mean. I know I could just make a square in vector mode and create pixel art square by square but that sounds tedious. If this sort of thing can't be achieved in Affinity Designer, that's all right I just want to know if its possible. Thank you. Screen_Recording_2020-04-25_at_11_47.28_AM.mov -
