Stroke Width Options Help


Recommended Posts

I've started laying out my designs to be laser cut onto wood and acrylic. Decided to purchase Affinity Designer thinking it would be fine to use but all the laser cutting companies require cutting lines to be 0.25pt and I've just realized that when I type in 0.25pt in the stroke width bar, it only allows me to do 0.2 or 0.3 which is useless to me! Am I missing something obvious that can be adjusted or have I wasted my money and more TIME?!

Help! 😨

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, Ruth. :)

Was not clear that upping the number of points to 2 meant 2 decimal points!

It means 2 decimal places, not 2 decimal points. A slip of the ‘pen’, perhaps? Anyway, the Preferences setting is only for the displayed value: entering 0.25 will set the stroke width to exactly that value (and you can verify this by typing *2 in the box, which will change the value to 0.5 rather than 0.4).
