Pixla Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hi guys, Just starting out here... amazing apps at the right price! Thanks! Would it be possible to add instancing to Designer? You would create a graphic, let's say a star, and then instead of CMD+J for duplicate, CRTL+CMD+J would create an instance linking back to the original. If I then changed the number of points on the original star, all the instances would be updated. In addition to this a random effect would be nice: scale, rotation and maybe color. Essentially it would be cool to have a cloner function that could make a (massive) number of clones with a somewhat individual appearance that linked back to a single graphic or symbol, that would respect updates to the original graphic. I don't think that is in there now? MattP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted November 10, 2015 Staff Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hi Pixla, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Currently there's no way to do this in Designer but it's already planned for later (Symbols). Please check our roadmap for more information on what's coming. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixla Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Thanks! Yes, I read the roadmap and thought symbols might be something like this, but wasn't sure exactly how they will turn out. Time to dig in deep and learn what's already there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
