PCGEEK Posted July 17, 2022 Posted July 17, 2022 Will Affinity Designer put in trace bitmap?, it would make it so much than having to trace manually in pixel persona
Ron P. Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 Welcome to the forums @PCGEEK, It's unknown if they will. It's been one of many requested features for sometime.

PCGEEK Posted July 18, 2022 Author Posted July 18, 2022 It would be nice to compete with illustrator, alternative is Inkscape, which can be hard at times.

The whole depends on (re)using/implementing a good tracing algorithm for both B&W and color tracing, further also with centerline tracing capabilities on demand. - Most better available algorithms here are copyrighted in a way, that they may not be out of the box (re)usable for commercial products without explicite licensing them (like the potrace one, which initially only does B&W and would have to be enhanced for color tracing in terms of color quantisation). - So far I know only of one capable tracing algorithm which might be also commercially reusable, but that one is not written in C/C++ at all. ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
