I write this post just out of pure curiousity and I do not expect this to be considered in any way. How many lines of code do the Affinity applications really share? With the Personas you can switch from APu to AP and AD and some functions are shared when you switch back to APu although APu does not have this feature directly at hand. Simple example: I am working right now on a manual converted from a PDF with a lot of technical drawings in APu. There are so many cluttered elements sitting next to each other and I want to tidy up the drawings, so a wire frame would be helpful. Switching to the AD Persona I can turn on wireframe view and work there. Switching back to APu Persona with wireframe view active gives me a wireframe view in APu. This means APu "understands" the wireframe view. So why is there no wireframe view in APu? There are many other areas which share functions, but are not directly available without the Personas. So here a weird idea I have: Why not starting with a basic Affinity Master application and sell the functions of APu, AP and AD as modules? So tripled code lines could be avoided, many settings could be shared which are right now independent of each other. So we just use the Studio Link and do not have to leave the application at any time. The special Personas AD and AP have could be organised as Sub Personas. Just an idea.
