Hello, some features I miss so far is the possibility to change the colormode to bitmap. That would be fine. A other feature I request is an automatic stitching tool for overlapping pictureslices, so they can rearranged and stitched together. For example from a double page in a pdf-file. And make it better than the PS-function ;-) .... that's what you do everytime, of course! Regards Torsten

One of the things I do a lot is create masks for bitmapped images. It would be incredibly useful to have an edge-detection selector (a "magic lasso" sort of thing) so that I could easily select the object on the bitmap image that I need to mask. Admittedly, this is more of a bitmap-drawing rather than a vector-drawing sort of thing, but it's annoying to have to load an image into Gimp to create a mask, then load that mask into affinity designer.

Hey guys, just playing around with the Photo Beta, and run into a problem/question :) I have a PDF file with photos, curves and fonts. It will be opened in Photo and splittet into different layers for text, photos, ... Is there an option to open a PDF and convert it directly to a flat color-bitmap? In Photoshop I have the option to convert a file directly to CMYK-, RGB-bitmap in the opening dialogue. And if I export the page to JPG and give it a size like 1000 x 500 px, and do the same export in Photoshop the size is always different. In Photoshop i see the size is 1000 x 500 px with 72 ppi (and I can modify this value), and in Photo I always get 1000 x 500 with 300-386 ppi and the filesize is much bigger. For print the exportet JPGs are well, but for the web to large. Or am I doing something completly wrong?! I hope you understand what I mean. Sometimes it is difficult to explain here in english. :ph34r: secretly looking for the german Affinity board ;)

I was playing with the Bitmap Fill, which is buried within the Gradient Fill type Pop-up menu. This doesn't make too much sense as a Bitmap is not a type of Fill Gradient.... Perhaps a better place is as another tab under the Move tool's Fill pop-up palette from the toolbar across the top:
