Would also like to have the function of symmetrical drawing in the designer persona


Recommended Posts

Hello Affinity Team,

I think the function with symmetrical drawing is really great. But unfortunately this is only possible in pixel persona, which I find really a shame. It would be nice if this function were also possible in the designer persona, so that vector objects could also be created symmetrically.

Would it be possible to make this function also possible for the designer persona?

That would be very helpful, since I create my illustrations mainly from vector elements and only add textures to the objects at the end via pixel persona.

Try Symbols:

Using the symbols is not the same as what the symmetry function does.

The symmetry function is about drawing one or more objects in mirrored form at the same time.

In the pixel persona you can create up to 16 subdivisions in an angle. Then you draw in one of these areas and in parallel the same object is drawn in the same place on the other areas or created in a mirrored position.

This saves several work steps, which I could otherwise duplicate, mirror and rotate several times.

Hi PaRunk


Your right. I know what you mean and understand
you. It is more Forework do to.

It just doesn't bother me that much. I like that
i can move symbols freely around and make
my own symmetries.
