justwilliam Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I am so sad! I worked so hard on this vector face and then added the quote which inspired me, only to see at the end that my document size was way to small. So now when I export the image it looks awful compared to what I see in Designer - oh well, lesson learned. I wanted to share it anyway because it is such a good quote. And hopefully someone can tell me how I can rescue the vector part (face). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 17, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 17, 2015 Hi justwillian, You can change the document size in File ▹ Document Setup..., make sure Objects will are set to Rescale. You should be able to enlarge it without losing any quality. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamboo8R Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 おそらく原因は“Layer Effect”を設定する際に“´Scale wity Object”のチェックが“Off”の状態だったからではないかと想像します。 同じように“Stroke”の設定でもデフォルトは“Off”になっているます。 ただ、もし今の状態になってから何も変更していないなら、今からチェックを“On”にする事で問題が解決するかも知れません。 大量の変更が必要だとは思うのですが・・・ こうなる前のデータを別に保存してある場合は、MEBさんが提案した方法が楽だと思います。 日本語で申し訳ないです・・・（＾＾； Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justwilliam Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 Thanks so much for the tip, MEB! I will try this as soon as I can make the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justwilliam Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 bamboo8R, 私はこれを試みるでしょう。ありがとう。 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justwilliam Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 Thanks again, MEB! Tried it and it worked; I did have to go in and try to make some adjustments (not completely successfully) to blur and opacity and it still isn't the quite same as the first one was in Designer - but the exported .jpg is a lot better. (I tried to improve the text a little as well.) Denny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 There's a definite Film Noir look to this. Those eyes have a lot to tell...

justwilliam Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 There's a definite Film Noir look to this. Those eyes have a lot to tell... As a matter of fact, peter, they actually do have something to tell...I very carefully hid it in the highlights (but I did not do this very successfully, as it cannot really be seen in the .jpg and it was all but barely visible in the .afdesign file. I would like to return to this file sometime and fix what my 'resizing' messed up, but it was just another one of my little 'experiments' in learning Designer and I am currently highly overreaching myself in a new 'experiment'. (I even have something planned that, to me, is ostensively the very definition of 'film noir'. But whether I can I pull it off is another question entirely.) Oh, this is spooky! Very well done. Thank you, Denny; spooky/creepy was the plan (If you have never yet done so, take a look at the photographs of Diane Arbus; quite creepy/spooky/odd, indeed). I really like this quotation of her.
