Floating Panels

[Dan Persa]

Hello Affinity Team,

Thanks for creating a great product!

There is a feature I miss. Being able to show more panels at the same time.

This would be really, really, really useful, for example when trying to add a symbol to specific layer. If I would be able to see both the symbol panel and the layers panel, I would be able to drag and drop the symbol in the right place.

It's a big pain to have to select a layer, or group of layers and then try to add the symbol to the canvas, as the symbol never ends up in the right place.

Also, it would be useful to be able to see more panel, when having to switch tools which are located in different panels. Now, as opposed to the desktop version of the app, which has this feature, you need to click and touch a lot!

Is there a way to get this feature?

Best,

Dan

I would love to get this too! Floating panels even for a limited selection (e.g. colour picker and layers) would be greatly appreciated, especially if they shrink in size a little (like procreate’s).

Yes please! To have the colour panel floating while able to see my layers would be amazing.

Also would really help when editing Curves on adjustment layers. Often I open the panel and the panel hides my content so I can’t see what I’m adjusting.

This is a feature I didn’t know I was missing until you mentioned it:)
