Is gradient mesh still coming?

[revo]

I know this was asked in 2014 and 2015 and 2019 and perhaps you are getting tired of the question but, I have to ask, since the version 1 roadmap included it, and you are at 1.9, does that mean gradient mesh is coming out very shortly? 

I notice the roadmap disappeared since I had it bookmarked. 

Does this mean there is no longer any gradient mesh plan? I recall reading that your designer had some interesting new ideas for how to implement it and that it could take a while. I believe that was 2015. 

For those who do not recall it here is an archived version from 2018 of a post from 2014. 

Mesh fill tool is literally the top item listed within illustration and design

I'm sure it will be added at some point; how could it not be, but as to when is anybodies guess.

Maybe yours. Other forum members have other items as the top priority. But, I'd like to have this feature too (although not my top priority).

We've been asking for 6 years now. They could've re-done Affinity Designer from scratch by now, so my expectations are low.

Affinity have lots and lots of important stuff to add, they need to hire a few more developers.

The last time I checked (now), they're at it: affinity.serif.com/en-gb/careers/senior-c-software-engineer
Apparently it's not that easy to find competent developers willing to move to Nottingham UK these days…
