Please reply if you agree.

Thank You

Raster patterns are already available and can be accessed using the Fill Tool.

Vector patterns are not currently supported but there are numerous threads requesting that already.

Not sure what distinguishes #1 from #2?

If by #4 you are referring to an "auto trace" function that has also been requested in various other threads.

 

Can you elaborate on what #3 is requesting?

Hi 2989

"Cavalry" the new 2D vector graphics program for motion graphics
could meet some of your needs for pattern making.
You can also use it to create still images.

There is a free version where you can save your vector graphics as .SVG.

Using this through obscure bitmap parameter  is so monstrously inconvenient .    Why not every bitmap in a document  behave like a bitmap fill that we could  drop and edit instantly.  Or replace in many shapes at once just by re-linking the path.       Like in Xara for example.        ADesigner is so full of tedious routine work

I'm with you 2989,

Also use Ai for fashion use and I'm ready to jump ship.... just waiting the same features you are.

1. Ability to create your own brushes with an vector image

2. Image Trace

3. Pattern swatches

I see a “Pattern Fill” function has been added to Affinity Photo in the 1.9 update!!!

Grrrrr why for photo and not designer!??

Hopefully it will come across soon. 
Still waiting on my Adobe free future.
