Staff James Ritson Posted November 9, 2022 Staff Share Posted November 9, 2022 Hello all, we're proud to announce that alongside the V2 launch of the Affinity apps, we've produced a completely new set of video tutorials to compliment the apps. These tutorials are all produced in-house by our Product Experts team. We've worked incredibly hard on these videos, and feel they represent a huge jump in both technical and presentational quality. Hopefully you all agree! The old V1 videos—now considered legacy—are still available on YouTube, consolidated into one playlist. The link for this playlist is available at the bottom of this post. Hope you all find the new tutorials useful!

Try typing Guides or Grid into the Search box in the in-app Help. Or the online Help (https://affinity.help) if your app's UI is not in English, and you don't have the Help yet.

Pyanepsion Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 For those like me who prefer to watch the video in their own language... Don't stick with the rather poor YouTube translation feature of a few years ago. As @KateM points out to me, it is now very understandable.

BotNote Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Hi: What if you completely new to this software! Please make a basic, step-by-step video or instructions that helps you do a specific design from start to finish. I have buyers remorse since the level of learning seems to be way to advanced for any Newbie to start. BobMoyer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulEC Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 12 hours ago, dvsDave said: are there sample files we can download to follow along with the tutorial? It depends which tutorial you're talking about! For some basic tutorials (many with sample files), have a look at those by "Affinity Revolution" on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/@AffinityRevolution (There are quite a few free ones.) Many tutorials may still be using v1, but should be fine for v2 if you just want to learn the basics. [N.B. I have no connection with Affinity Revolution and am not recommending that you pay for any of their courses – I have no personal knowledge of them.] Quote Acer XC-895 : Core i5-10400 Hexa-core 2.90 GHz : 32GB RAM : Intel UHD Graphics 630 : Windows 10 Home Affinity Publisher 2 : Affinity Photo 2 : Affinity Designer 2 : (latest release versions) on desktop and iPad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
