[PDF] Tutorial + Custom Shortcuts2X made for Affinity Designer PRO Users

[Jhonatan S]

Hey there!
I'd like to share with this amazing Affinity community my custom hotkeys released by http://vectorizeclub.com/ that will speed up your work in 2x!
I've been using Affinity everyday since I started in my work in 2018, also teaching people how to use it.

I changed most of the keys to make it comfortable and easy to use during my work while drawing (making illustrations and general media & designs)

I truly hope that this will be a game changing for most of you, each key carefully designed by priotity of tool usability like,
D for Pencil,
F for Pen tool, making the switch of the tool comfortable than ever.

That's nice and all, but for some reason I can't get the free Vectorize_WIN_Shortcut_V1.9.0 afshort file to load into Designer.

On second look, it appears some of them load, but it is an extremely limited subset. If that's the case it is hardly worth the hour I spent watching the video.

that's odd   are you using windows or mac?
nobody has reported me this issue before,

my apologies for the your time spent, should be the software, it's all working here,

To add the keys properly in case some of it is not loading,
you can assign the keys on there based on the pdf guide, there is the map showing each function where you can add manually on keyboard preferences. 

I hope this can make you save tons of time during your work,

have a great day.

When I load the free afshort file into Windows Designer, it gives me 8 shortcuts. I've already downloaded the zip and the bare file. Same for all the installations I try. When I do a reset after installation to revert to stock, it gives me 9 shortcuts. Something is going on that I'm not smart enough to figure out.
