DesignCat Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Please don't tell me you still haven't added a simple text wrap to Designer? Even Word has had it for years, for the love of god! How can I do text+image design without even a basic text wrap? I hope you'll add one ASAP because as it stands, this app isn't worth its price. P.S. Are you ever gonna add a "warp" feature for quick image editing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use Publisher for this, as it has that function and many more text-based functions that Designer lacks.

DesignCat Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hi, I see, can you tell me what the point of Designer is? It seems to be lacking a lot of features otherwise present in design software. I thought it would be an alternative to Adobe's In-Design given the naming.

The equivalent for ID would be Affinity Publisher. Affinity Designer is the equivalent to Illustrator.

AlainP Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 @DesignCat... what a nice way to start a post.... It really makes people want to help you.... Have a look at this Youtube tutorial, it needs a few more clicks than a simple "text wrap" function but it can be very much powerful.

Bwood Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 You’ll enjoy Publisher, and the cross over between both programs is seamless. I’m doing a number of online newsletters with it and it’s powerful. If I can’t produce something in Publisher, I move over to designer and vice versa. Enjoy the trial. -Bill DesignCat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
