Old Bruce Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hi and welcome to the forums @nkkn_niklas, No it is not.

Slightly clunky but relatively easy workaround: duplicate the object while having the Node tool active Select All (selects only the nodes on this object, which is a Good Thing™!) deselect those nodes you want to keep (use e.g. the node "lasso" modifier) delete the selected nodes I.e. more or less a reverse workflow than in AI… Quote MacBookAir 15": MacOS Ventura > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // MacBookPro 15" mid-2012: MacOS El Capitan > Affinity v1 / MacOS Catalina > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // iPad 8th: iPadOS 16 > Affinity v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
