BarusMima Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Hello, I don't know whether I do something wrong. I really struggle when trying to select a stroke among other strokes as seen in the video. I already know that I have to click somewhere around the stroke to be able to hit the one I want but sometimes I can't do it this way and have to find it in the layer section, which is difficult when I have a lot of small strokes like this. I believe it's because I use the pressure controller so it seems like it thinks that the stroke is wider and sometimes they overlap then. It's really frustrating. I'd appreciate any help! Thank you!

pbasdf Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Try holding the alt/option key when you click - it should cycle through selecting each layer (where you click) in turn. BarusMima 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff DWright Posted May 30, 2022 Staff Share Posted May 30, 2022 You can also click each layer rather than the strokes to cycle through them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_l Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 When you are working with Affinity Designer you can switch to Outline View Mode to see the lines without the stroke. Quote ---------- Windows 10 / 11, Complete Suite Retail and Beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! Didn't have this idea but it didn't help much. Going through holding Alt helped me, but it's also good to think about this a little more than I'm used to.

Yeah but sometimes it's difficult not to get lost if there's many similar layers. But thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
