iT_grunt Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hello, I have attached a youtube link of an Adobe Illustrator tutorial that I want to see if it can be reproduced (as much as is able) in Affinity Photo. Thanks! Drawing the Neon Sign Project in Adobe Illustrator - YouTube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy05 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I stopped watching at about minute 5 in that video, when he used envelope/vector warping. This can't be done in Affinity Designer, despite being a fundamental function for most vector design software for decades. There have been literally hundreds of posts about this issue in this fora for years now. (e. g. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/search/&q=vector warp&quick=1) As usually, there's a workaround for Affinity, which requires skill, experience and time: You'll have to move every single node of the object(s) manually in order to get them into the shape you want them to be. Or, in this particular case. create the initial text on a curved path and trace that. Quote »A designer's job is to improve the general quality of life.
