JohnCooperuk Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Affinity designer is ace. I work betweeen it and Clip Studio paint. I create a lot of line art for my job, and I can just work faster in CSP creating line work on a cintiq. My most desired feature would be to emulate the vector layer and brush sensitivity of CSP in Designer. At the moment I've having to do a lot of converting pixels to vectors (in a old version of illlustrator) then importing into Designer to complete the work. I've put time in getting to grips with the pen and pencil tools in designer and experimented with settings and the lasso, but it's still not as fluid as CSP. I understand this is a design app more than an 'art' app, but the Affiinty team have done so much good work in the past making this an amazing bit of kit, that I can't help but ask.

Dan C Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Hi @JohnCooperuk, Welcome to the Affinity Forums Many thanks for your kind feedback, this is certainly appreciated! I'll move this thread to the Feature Requests and Feedback for Designer section of the Forums for you now, as I feel this post better fits there - allowing our devs to see and consider implementing this in a future update. I hope this helps! JohnCooperuk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debraspicher Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I second your vote for a brush engine similar to CSP for linework. Probably the best program by far I've used for inking. Very smooth and their asset site which updates immediately in the program works well for making the most of the program. I don't export vectors, but I do rasterize my sketches from there and will vectorize them using pentool or maybe stroke if the line is meant to carry the same width. If I'm not working from scan, which is more common now with a sleeping child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
