Ability to export icon files (*.ico) in Designer
Michael posted a topic in Suggestions for Affinity Designer on Desktop
I'm working on web design a lot and I love Affinity Designer. This week I had to create an icon (favicon to be precise), which I obviously designed in Designer. So far so good, but there seem to be no way of exporting an image as *.ico. Are there any plans for adding support for ico files? -
How to Set a Grid to Make Icons
hera posted a topic in Tutorials (Serif and Customer Created Tutorials)
Let's see how you can set the grid to make an icon. A fairly common size for icons is 64 pixels versus 64 pixels. So in the same Grid and Axis Manager, you can go to the first Axis and set the Space to 64 pt. Then then under the second axis, we can also set the Space to 64 pt. So now each of our boxes is the right size for an icon and fits inside it. What we can also do is increase the amount of space between each of the grid cells. So increase Gutter to 24 pt for both axes. And now we can enter exactly one icon into each one of these small grid boxes. And we can also take even more help we work with the layout by increasing the number of Divisions. So we can make smaller grids in our grid. So let's say that we set each Division to 32. And now if we zoom in, we can see that we have several lines passing each of our grid cells further. So when we are trying to align all the different nodes and points in our icon, we can align for each one of these lines. And we can do the same thing horizontally, so we have several separate grids that are very good for each icon that we produce. -
If you're designing an iOS app icon, you can use this template to export the 18 different icon sizes required by Apple named according to Apple’s guidelines. To get started, edit the Icon symbol on the App Icon layer. When you are ready to export, switch to the Export Persona and click the Export Slices button. Make sure to disable the mask layers before you export – icons should be exported as square images. You can download the latest version on my website. Thanks for looking!

In this post, I am sharing some tips and tricks to improve your workflow. I hope it will be helpful to you. Here is the LINK -
Thinking of ways to improve the application icons... So, I'm thinking maybe at least the "aperture" portion of the icon should be black/dark like an opening/aperture would be.

EDIT: Hooray. This App has finally been published. Scroll down to get a link to the Microsoft Store listing. I've started working on a new Windows App and have been having trouble getting the icon right. It will be a simple - and totally free - conversion App - kilos to pounds, metres to inches, etc. The general criteria I've given myself for the icon are: * must represent or give the idea of "conversion" or "change"; * broad strokes only - minimal detail, so it scales down well; * single colour only; * must fit nicely in a square with hardly any surrounding space; * should not contain letters or country/culture-specific items; * must not look much like any other existing App icon (not sure how to check this). I've come up with a few variations so far but I'm not happy with any of them (see attached). I started out - top-left - with the idea of taking a section out of two rulers and comparing them (ended up looking like a telephone). Then it morphed - top-right - into comparing a stack of items (started to look like a set of in-trays). Then - middle-left - I went on to a kind of funnel idea. And then - middle-right - a sort of "multi-arrow" that turned into nothing much. Then - bottom-left - I tried some more traditional weight icons but I don't want a specific measurement type to be in the icon. The icon at the bottom-right is what I'm using until something better comes up (it looks a bit like a birthday cake at the moment). Does anyone have any suggestions? (Especially if they're way better than what I've got so far.) The people with the best suggestions - those which make it into the final icon - will get a mention in the App (if they want one) when it comes out.

program association and handoff issues
befehr posted a topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Issue 1: Some Affinity Designer files default open in Affinity Photo. Also, for some files, the icon associated with a Designer file show the Photo icon. Issue 2: Adobe Illustrator files are associated with Affinity Publisher. Trying to change the association creates the error " {file name} can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer." Issue 3: While working on an Affinity Designer file on my MacBook Pro, the Handoff icon on my iMac shows Affinity Publisher. I have attached some screenshots. Thanks in advance. -Bill- 5 replies

layers panel - effects "fx" ui icon suggestion
retrograde posted a topic in Older Feature Requests & Suggestion Posts
In the layers panel, when you disable (not remove) some effects on a certain object it might be worth keeping the "fx" icon in the panel but maybe with a red "X" through it so you know there are some effects applied to it but are just disabled. That way with a click on that "fx" with a red "X" you can toggle the effects on and off right from the layers panel. Currently when I disable the effects, the icon disappears and I don't know which objects I have tried some effects on... This way, at a glance you are reminded which elements have effects applied but are turned off. -

Add exported filename to slices
Mojo posted a topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Hi I'm using Affinity Designer to create icons. I a single layer, I have an icon with 7 sizes. My slices names as like this: _16x16 _32x32 _64x64 etc. When I'm in the Export Persona, I select "Slices" and clicks "Export slices", then I enter a name like "MyIcon". Is there a way to tell Affinity Designer to merge the exported filename "MyIcon" into the slicename, så the slice names will end up as... MyIcon_16x16 MyIcon_32x32 MyIcon_64x64 ...? That way I can reuse the layer, change the icons and export it with a new name like "MyNewIcon" and it will automatically export slices as .. MyNewIcon_16x16 MyNewIcon_32x32 MyNewIcon_64x64 I would like to call the slice names something like... {filename}_16x16 {filename}_32x32 {filename}_64x64 etc. Thanks -
No parameter window for filter
ku.keser posted a topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)
Hi all, I am new here, but I have AP a long time. Since today it works perfectly. But today I had an issue. If I choose a filter, which normaly it opens a window with the settings (parameters), it shows me the attached icon / cursor. If I click and move the mouse, than I see, that the settings is changing. But I want to do that with the "normal" slider and numbers. I resettet all settings in AP, but it doesn't changes anything. It is maybe a windows 10 or affinity photo problem or can I change it in a setting? Windows 10 are with all updates. AP I tried also 1.6.93 and 1.6.103. I have a Surface Pro 4. Hope anyone can help me. Kay-Uwe -
I just bought Affinity Designer at the Mac Appstore :-) There is a small gripe with this first version: if I save a document in a place where I have turned off the "Show Preview" option (I have this turned off for the Desktop) I get a generic document Icon, because Affinity Designer appears to have no .ICNS file within the resources folder of the application. Could this be "fixed"?

Windows 10 Style Affinity Designer & Affinity Photo icons
JacobTheDev posted a topic in Share your work
I like my taskbar to look uniform, so I always create custom icons to match the Windows-10 esthetic (typically solid white, simple icons). I just switched from Adobe to Affinity this week, and I created a couple of simplified icons to pin to my taskbar. I figured I'd post them here for anyone else who's looking for something similar. ZIP file contains SVG, PNG, and ICO formats. affinity-icons-windows-10.zip -
The programme should have icons that are always visible for things like Printing. To constantly go through File>Print> etc. is time consuming.

I've just purchased affinity photo, and every 2 minutes or so the dock icon bounces, and the app comes to the foreground. How can I fix this? Thanks

Steps to reproduce in AP 1.6.1: 1) Have a pixel layer 2) Create a live adjustment layer 3) With the adjustment layer selected, click on the create layer group icon. 4) The newly created layer group is represented by a grey rectangle icon 5) Open and close the layer group, the layer icon changes to folder. The icon should have been updated already at time of creation Another variation is dragging an adjustment layer into an empty layer group (horizontal bar position). The layer group is open, and the icon is not updated, and remains empty gray rectangle. Close and re-open the folder, the layer icon gets updated to a folder icon.

Hello, I would like to get Affinity Designer, but have a few questions before that. So I am a passionate programmer and I am very interested in the design of my app. I would like to know if Affinity has predesigned App icons included For example, a back sign or an adjustment sign. I would appreciate an answer Best regards Kevin H.
