OlivePress Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 How do I combine these text letters into one shape/object and keep the stroke size intact? I converted the text to curves, I then "add" the shapes. And what happens is that I loose the stroke size, and the inner white areas are filled in. Thank you to anyone for helping solve this issue.

GarryP Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Welcome to the forums. There are probably many ways to do this, and different methods will work in different Affinity applications, but my attached video shows one method you can use in Designer. At the end of the video I change the Fill Mode of the curves. This doesn’t do anything on my text but it might help with yours where your ‘holes’ are filled in. 2020-07-13_09-14-00.mp4 OlivePress 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an alternative to dragging the curves out of the group and then deleting the empty group, you can simply select the populated group in the Layers panel and ungroup it.
