everklick Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I have: In Affinity Designer I created a group with an image + text (a logo). Now I want to use that logo in 2 other places in the same design - I know that I can simply duplicate and move/resize the layer. However, I then need to adjust the color or font in all three copies manually. What I need: Is there a way to create a "live-copy" of that original logo, that automatically updates all three logos at once, when I make a change to any of those groups? Note: In Bohemian Sketch this is called "Symbol" and allows me to create reusable elements, but I'd prefer to use Affinity Designer here 😉 Thanks for your help!

GarryP Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Welcome to the forums @everklick Go to the Designer Help - menu "Help -> Affinity Designer Help" - and search for “symbol” (without the quotes). Xzenor and everklick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xzenor Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 What @GarryP says.. Symbols! Here's a YouTube tutorial. I personally prefer video with hands-on examples over text and this was pretty easy to follow. Maybe it helps you too. everklick 1 Quote Windows 10 Pro Intel Core i7-4770 3.40Ghz 16 GB RAM Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 Samsung EVO 850 SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
