Joachim_L Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 Copy the outline elements, fill it, remove the outline and move the coloured elements a bit off.

Spicesman Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 Thanks @joachim. Also, if you can explain how the following (attached image) effect can be achieved, I would be grateful. Quote

I "guess" one of the coloured element has a slight opacity (Layers panel) applied.

Spicesman Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 @Joachim_Lnot sure if I follow you. I mean the orange circle. Looks like a paintbrush effect. How could I colour-in an object using a paintbrush? Quote

Spicesman Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 Ahh.. Sorry, I prefer to do this on Designer. If you can put forward the steps, that will be awesome! TIA! Quote

StuartRc Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 You can get these kind of effects by simply selecting a brush and setting a different blend mode in the context menu + by mixing transparency.

To clarify: the Affinity apps share a single file format, with the different filename extensions merely serving to indicate the originating app (which will be used by default to open it, for example if you double-click on the file in an Explorer or Finder window).
