Hi guys, 

I have been using Adobe Flash/animate for years before switching to Affinity.

There was one way of handling vectors that I liked a lot and that was bringing a lot of flexibility in the creation: it's the automatic vector merging. Here is how they describe it in Adobe support : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/animate/using/drawing.html#drawing_modes_and_graphic_objects

So they have 2 modes : this old school merge mode (that used to be the only one) and the object drawing mode, which is pretty much the one we have in Affinity. The old mode is actually very practical in many ways: you can easily subtract (when one of the object is a different color) add (when the same color). Also, you can easily sculpt, cut, etc. when lines cross the shape.

The selection is also interesting when double clicking on a line, you can select all the lines connected to this line with the same color. I have used this a lot for select and erase once I had no more use of lines.

I was wondering if something similar can be included in affinity.
