GRAFKOM Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 In my opinion, Serif made a mistake by not releasing the Beta version of Affinity 2.0 All work related to the new edition was done in great secrecy. If a beta version of the new Affinity was released, users would quickly find bugs, shortcomings and bad ideas. Such a bad idea is, among other things, changing the icons in the Stoke panel. It's not good now. So I suggest if the appearance has been changed, add only blue elements like in V1. I really worked 2 days in the new software and I'm just tired of staring at these icons and wondering what each means (because they are very similar in these grays). And also this padlock or chain icon next to W and H and Start and End - now it looks so that you don't know if it's open or closed - it's not good. So just a small change to add a blue element and it will certainly help a lot in proper identification. I use Affinity every day in my professional work. There are also many bugs in the new version, so for now I'm going back to a certain V1 version and I'll wait for the V2 version to be improved. In the photo: on the left side the current appearance of the Stroke panel icons - on the right side my proposal to change the icons.
lenogre Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 I totally agree with you. All is grey… A bit of color is welcome.
Artsketch Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 I believe they provided some betas to selected users and influencers. But that didn't seem to be enough. Especially the iPadOS UI on 12.9".
Pehaer Posted November 13, 2022 Posted November 13, 2022 Cześć. I also support adding color to icons in stroke panel. Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher v2, Windows 11
