Stock Providers Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Hi, I am using a Wacom Intuos and I decided to add the "Add geometry" function as one of my buttons on the drawing pad. The problem I'm having is that whenever that button adds the geometry. It's creating a "compound" instead of a one solid "curve/shape." Did I program the wrong function? In my Affinity designer shortcuts I went to - Layer - Geometry > Add Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 How did you add the function to the button? I use keyboard shortcuts when I do it. I would need to make a shortcut for that function, Layer > Geometry > Add then assign those keystrokes to the Wacom button. Are you on Mac or Windows? If you have the Option key in the mix it may be that which is messing things up for you, this Option key will make a compound if you click on the Toolbar button.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stock Providers Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) Thank you so much for getting back to me, (I'm sorry if fail to clarify properly, English is my second language) So... I'm on Windows, and I went back into Designer, and decided to test my new shortcut on the keyboard. And I now think I might have found a bug: "Layer - Geometry > Add" and "Layer - Create compound" are both doing the same thing when you add different shortcuts to them (on my keyboard). Here are the shortcuts button I chose to use: "CTRL + ALT + A" = Geometry > Add "CTRL + ALT + P" = Create compound Has anyone else tried programing their own shortcuts into those two functions? Edited October 29, 2021 by Stock Providers I've added an image to show my shortcuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I am not seeing this on Mac. Both work as expected, Control + Option + A gives me Add and Control + Option + P gives me Compound.

Stock Providers Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 So maybe it's a Windows-only issue, thank you so much for helping me out. I shall go check in the bugs section of the forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
