Publoo Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Hi Affinity, And Corel surprised the whole world, they did something that I am waiting for in Affinity Designer. They gave draftsmen the opportunity to work in perspective. The tool is great, I already love it. I am sending the link and asking what do you say? https://www.coreldraw.com/en/product/coreldraw/?hp=hero-corel#features Best regard, Maciej Aammppaa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And only until. Corel solved it perfectly. In addition, editing and modifying objects is carried out in accordance with the currently set grid!

firstdefence Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It is wholly unfair to compare Affinity to all of these powerhouse companies, which, considering the resources and workforce they have to hand then include the longevity of development these companies have invested makes it a disadvantaged comparison at best. Maybe Affinity should sell version 3 of each app for £300 in line with Corel and give you what you want, would that be acceptable? or maybe the the £500 that Corel is asking for there suite of programs and then the push to subscription when you want to upgrade or be pushed to pay full price again for the next major release. What about a Pro version with all the bells and whistles a pro could possibly want for £600 per major release would that be worth it? I doubt it. The offers Affinity were putting out at approx £75 for all three desktop apps were amazing value. Affinity bang for buck are way ahead of the market, workarounds included.

Dazmondo77 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Adding this to designer would be another task I could drop from illustrator, especially if it worked as well as designers current isometric grids. I find Illustrators perspective grids, although a godsend when working on children books, is very clunky but would be great if you could change the perspective and have the artwork update rather than being left, although I only have CS5 so don't know if this has been addressed in later versions - the CoralDraw version looks really great. when the next book comes along I may even be tempted to give it a whirl - If only we had something like this in Designer, even the ability to just tweak the corners of vector groups to add perspective it would solve a load of workaround headaches for me Publoo 1 Quote Mac Pro Cheese-grater (Early 2009) 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon 48 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC Ram, Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5, Ugee 19" Graphics Tablet Monitor Triple boot via OCLP 1.2.1 - Mac OS Monterey 12.7.1, Sonoma 14.1.1 and Mojave 10.14.6 Affinity Publisher, Designer and Photo 1.10.5 - 2.2.1 www.bingercreative.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconoclast Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Looks good in the video. But it is not easy to say if it will also work so nice in practicing. And as far as I could see, it's only drawing with two vanishing points, not with three as in reality. The painting software Rebelle also has an interesting solution for perspective drawing. Didn't test it, but it looks verry good in the demo-video. And it uses three vanishing points, as far as I remember. I think a usable solution for the meantime could be to have guidelines that are rotatable freely, like f.e. in Inkscape. With that and a little knowledge about perspective, you should be able to create perspectivly realistic scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Affinity Designer should develop with the ability to draw in perspective. ArtRage and PaintStorm also have this function. But these are programs designed for artistic painting.

It would certainly please a lot of people but I reckon the devs little fingers are already going like bees wings. Keep the ideas and requests coming though I’m sure they will get to it in time.
