Currently in Affinity Designer,when we draw using drawing tools such as Pen Tool,Pencil Tool and Vector Brush Tool,each stroke creates a new layer,which can be quite cumbersome,especially when you have a more elaborate drawing. This issue could be catered by creating a layer group and then create a stroke and then select the first layer in the layer group. Now every stroke will be drawn within the given group. It would make an excellent productive feature if their is a preference provided for enabling or disabling this feature for drawing strokes on each separate layer. Like switching it on would allow allow all strokes to be created in a single layer and disabling it would allow the default behaviour of drawing each stroke on a separate layer. It could reside in the menu path: Preferences > General the name of the preference as a sample could be 'Draw strokes on a single Layer'. Best Regards, Fahad

I was in the process of adding multiple layers of curves via the OPERATIONS ADD button, then the ADD process bar shows and seems to be busy but never completes the task. Also, there is a visual "distortion" (in the "i" of "life". The program seems to be frozen without any responses when prompted.

Recently I tried to edit an EPS file downloaded from Freepik. I selected around 142 objects and clicked the delete icon. Designer stopped responding immediately. I closed the designer using Task Manager, reopened it and repeated the steps. Designer crashed again!

Hi! I am loving affinity designer in comparison to ai...however, there is something so easy that I can't figure out for the life of me! I have a doc/file that has many objects and each has a lot of layers. These layers aren't ordered in groups; therefore, I need to find a select group of layers among the many. I know that I need to click the Shift and have the multilayer button active and " keep clicking through the all the layers to select them"... the problem is that some of the layers have tiny object and I can't get the cursor to acknowledge through the mess of affinity's blue lines (the ones showing that you've selected something). The bottom line...I am hoping that there is a way to just use a marque, a selection brush, or whatever to just selection the object in one motion. When I've tried to do this is puts the marching ants, but none of the coordinating layers are high lighted. I would be most grateful for any advice! Bernie
