Andrew Halstead Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Still new to Affinity Designer but have found things I'd like to see implemented in the future as I reckon it's a brilliant program already. As a mainly CorelDRAW user, I'd love to see Backup files added to Designer files . And colour palettes laid out at the side or bottom. Text, that would be great to have CorelDRAW stylee paragraph text with the handles that drag the line spacing apart by eye instead of typing in a points value. Full screen preview, extrusion for text or shapes, block shadows, inline and outline of text or shapes.. these would be welcome additions... Please don't think I'm tearing the software apart, I know it's excellent so far and look forward to future updates... Well done Serif so far ð Jowday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rostron Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 @Andrew Halstead, Welcome to the forums. It would help other users if you use a more meaningful title for your posts. In this case, Â "Andrew Halstead's suggestions" would be better than just "Andrew Halstead".

Boldlinedesign Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Everyone wishes in some ways that Affinity Designer acted more like the software they are familiar with - I wish it was more like Illustrator, you wish it was more like Corel. I've found myself appreciating the Affinity apps more when I embrace the idea that familiarity with one way does not mean it's always the best way. Give the app time to grow on you and see what it can do - things I wished were more like Illustrator before, now I'm excited that it's not that way in Designer. This does not mean I don't have certain features found in Illustrator that i wish were still included in their own way in AD. I just try to appreciate what they have envisioned walt.farrell, Mark Ingram and emmrecs01 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
