Data merge possible in the near future for Affinity Designer? For Dataviz

[PeterLok]

Hi all,

I'm wondering if in the near future the possibility of merging / importing data into Affinity Designer will be possible? I would like to manipulate multiple data driven objects (symbols) in data viz / infographics artwork. Work arounds are a lot of work, especially if the data changes.

Any tips for workarounds welcome still.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Peter

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

My guess: Data Merge will remain a function that is exclusive to Affinity Publisher.

Of course, if you own both Designer and Publisher, you can use Publisher to do most everything you can do in Designer. So perhaps you could just do your work in Publisher, and use Data Merge there?

Hi Walt,

thanks, I do own Publisher, I'll look into it, going that route.

Kind regards,

Peter
