Smooth corners and radius-ed corners are different things.

Please let us define — while creating a rounded rectangle, if we want to use radiused corners or superelipse smooth corners. I have provided an idea on how this could be implemented. This is crucial for design work of good taste, and the building block of all iOS design, and good design

Let's beat illustrator to this one, and catch up to sketch

Even better, instead of this additional button, make it so that “Squircle” option is under the “Corner Type” list

 

This way, this feature could be implemented in the Corner tool as well under it’s dropdown list.

Yes please this is needed - this is a feature in Figma [ design tool for mobile development ] in their corner radius section. Corner smoothing.
The problem with Figma is that when exporting an SVG with this corner smoothing applied, it doesnt respect the extra smoothing and just gives you the 'bog-standard' rounded corners. So all the nice smoothing is lost.

Affinity could be first to implement this? so that your extra smooth corners could be 'baked' into the paths.

The lack of this feature is really an issue at this point. Drawing an Apple device as a vector or an iOS icon is easier in Figma than in Affinity, and I think that shouldn’t be the case.

@Wenzel and others here.

Version 1 isn't supported anymore since Version 2 is released. Designer V2 has rounded corner, so it's time to upgrade.

It’s not about rounded corners, which are available in V1, too.

it is about a specific type of round corners, called squircle or „smoothed“ , which is not available. See the second post in this thread for the difference.

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

I am on the latest version (2.6.3) and rounded corders are not smooth corners.
