I am on Windows, Affinity Designer version 1.10.6. 1665 When I am placing a curve inside a shape, such as an Eclipse, the Curve will go inside the Shape. If I do the same thing with a Curve (Curve in a Curve), the child object disappears. (If I were to convert the Eclipse to a curve, it would behave the same way) How do I have the child object (the curve) behave just like if I were to use it with the circle. I make the Curves with the Brush tool in Designer Persona.

Hi everyone! In this file, so far I have been "drawing" the dragon using a layer mask. Now that the actual content is all on the layer mask, I wanted to edit the layer mask in a sort of non-destructive way. I wanted to add flowers and all kinds of patterns to the area outside of the dragon, but wasn't sure how to do that without having them all on the same layer mask. I don't want them on the same layer mask because in case I end up not liking the flowers and stuff, I'd have to retrace the whole outline of the dragon. Then I thought of the great erase blend mode and wanted to use an erase layer to clear out flower patterns in the blue paint but instead it erases the vase under it as well. Is my approach completely wrong? How should I proceed with what I have with as little extra work as possible? Is what I want to do possible in AP or should I make a feature request? vase_mouse_painting.afphoto
