Hi, At the moment the Stabiliser doesn't work in Rope or Window mode when using the Pen tool. At least not like it does in Designer. ta Ade

Hi all, I encountered many bugs of Designer on my iPad 2018 + Apple Pencil. This post is about the Stabiliser option. When I first installed Designer a week ago, both options seemed to be working as intended, like in this video (54s) : https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/designer/ipad/#/video/272749894 An hour ago I wanted to use those options but the fact is there were no difference between the two as I was seeing the "rope" preceding the curves no matter what I chose, plus the effect is the same. I also saw something strange. In the frame concerning the Window stabiliser options I saw that : <Window stabiliser> 15px Stabiliser Length What's strange is that LENGTH 15px is an attribute of the rope, not the window. I reinstalled the app, didn't change any option, the attributes bug disappeared but the behavior remained, is it intended? Did I miss something? (in English shouldn't it be stabilizer and not stabiliser? (Sorry, I'm not English native )) Thanks for your answers.

Hello, Would it be possible to add the option for a keyboard shortcut to toggle the brush stabiliser on and off? Thanks for your consideration!

Is there a brush stabiliser in Affinity Photo? Tried finding this answer online but couldn't find a convincing answer....

I'm considering retiring Photoshop CS4 in favour of Affinity Photo when it's released for Windows, hence why I'm here, but am curious how far Affinity Photo's tools stretch for digital drawing/painting too? Although I'm not new to image editing, one thing that has recently started to peak my interest is digital drawing/painting. However, as it's something that I haven't paid much attention to before, I am a complete newbie when it comes to that. As an example, here's a video of an artist who used Photoshop for a long time, but recently started using Manga Studio (now called Clip Studio Paint) for drawing due to it's better drawing brushes, etc.. The brushes he seems to use most often are pencils for sketching (5:15 & 10:35), G-pen for inking (12:00) and transparent watercolour for blending/shading (15:42). Here they are in real-life use (Note: Link may or may not be safe for work depending what country you live in). I assume Affinity Photo contains brushes that are capable of producing good results for sketching and blending. However the Manga Studio brushes also seem to have brush stabilisation and the G-pen seems to have a mode to use it as a vector brush. Do the Affinity Photo brushes have stabilisation and a vector brush tool (or are there any plans to introduce them)? A quick search brought up the following posts, which seem to suggest no? https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/7617-stabilise-brush-strokes-and-faulty-brush-settings/ https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/10152-brush-stabilizer/
