DigitalVisuals Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I have read some things about this problem, but no where you see a really using solution for people with no so good technic. Text wrap around images (png) should by a basic tool in Designer! I got on my Designer group many questions about this. And please don't come with answers to wrap around static objects like a circle.

Joachim_L Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Or as a workaround, switch inside AD to APu, make the text wrap there and switch back. I think too, that text wrap is needed for AD - not everybody needs APu and AD seems to be capable understanding the text wrap that was applied in APu.

Sorry for being not too detailed. Of course you need APu and there is no way to alter the settings in AD. But isn't it interesting / remarkable, that AD understands the text wrap APu although not having a text wrap feature? Anyway, hyphenation and text wrap should be part of AD in my opinion (yes, plus other features).

Everybody could think of a feature from a single affinity program that could be great in the other but that would defeat the purpose of single programs altogether. Its a question thats come from users, so its to the team from serif of this will be come or not.

For example here: The different apps need different capabilities, otherwise they'd all be the same app. On 3.

So you'll need Publisher to create the text flow and then you will be able to open the same file and edit it in Designer if you want Affinity Designer does have the ability to wrap text inside a shape or curve.

What they're doing with Studio Link and Edit in... are unprecedented as far as I can see, so they're going to have to figure out how to keep both their users and their coffers happy. In any case, Designer provides enough high-level typographic features that a user might expect text wrap as well. Personally I'm looking for hyphenation and multiple columns. The limitations to the type tools seem like a carrot dangled in front of you then snatched away as you try to use them.

DigitalVisuals Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 There are enouch users who have no need or work for publisher, but use designer for everything. Then you need for one thing what has been normal a basic tool a complett piece of software for it. Thats why I wrote this question.

Thanks again, but still see no question, just statements like “got on my Designer group many questions”, “should by a basic tool in Designer!” and “designer needs this tool to[o]”.

It was simply a hidden joke: b-/v-aseline [There are so many posters with wriggling text lines, so we have to thank Serif for the “decision”, that posters should be made in APub …] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted December 4, 2019 Staff Share Posted December 4, 2019 I would not recommend making an English joke in a thread whose initial post and subsequent replies were clearly not made in a first language. Nor would I recommend asking where the question is when this is a feature request forum, where the user is saying there is a need to achieve something in this software that is currently hard to achieve. Most posts in this forum are not questions and I would suggest that you gave this user more leeway over the use of precise English.

But there is nothing worse than putting hours into a layout in one program and realizing it can't be completed because that software can't go where your ideas took you.
