DancesWithStaffies Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Hello, I'm new to Affinity Designer so please excuse me if I'm missing something obvious but I have two issues after downloading Christi's Comic Toolbox from the Affinity store: 1: Although Designer says I have imported 36 brushes, I can't see them anywhere, i.e. in the brushes menu. I assumed they'd be added as their own category, or distributed among the existing categories as relevant but can't see them anywhere. 2: Designer won't let me import or open the assets pack and says it isn't an Affinity document. (pic of the message attached) Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. 1. The brushes are raster brushes. You will find them in the Pixel Persona (), but not in the Designer Persona. 2. Open the Assets studio panel (View > Studio > Assets if it's not already open). Then click on the burger menu to the right of the Assets tab name, and choose Import Assets... Edit: That's all covered, by the way, in the Installation Guide that came with your purchase If you didn't download those resources, too, you can find them at https://affinity.store/account/downloads Dan C 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although @walt.farrell has quickly answered your question, for the future you are likely to get a better response if you give your posting a meaningful title. In ths case I would suggest: "Problem importing brushes into Designer". It does help if you mention the specific app where you are having trouble, in this case, Designer.
