François R Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I'm very happy that there are finally perspective and warp options in Designer, I'm going to use it a lot. Unfortunately this feature completely lacks snapping - I see for example that neither corners nor tangents snap to grid or other objects. It's really important that this works, so you can accurately adjust your objects to the perspective established with a grid or other objects.

Not the same few bot-like users replying to everything, a wider representation of users, fewer fanboys, more qualified users. In short, better! 3) I was here to report bugs and submit improvement requests for professional work professionally in a large setup and to bring a lot of knowledge from the world, i.e. professional product development, web- and software development, usability, user experience design and accessibility. I actually know what I am talking about! BUT! We are phasing out Designer and Affinity in 2022 Q1 - and replacing it with feature complete and algorithmically competent alternatives. Publisher is unsuitable for serious use, and was never adopted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeTO Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Agreed and I believe this has been reported a few times already so it's on Serif's radar. It would be a lot more useful with snapping.

Staff MEB Posted November 16, 2022 Staff Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi François R, Thanks for your feedback. We are aware that the Vector Warp feature still has some limitations/room for improvement in this first implementation. More improvements will come as development moves forward.

Supcat Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I would love it if it snapped. Especially for warping text it's important to keep the verticals vertical, and this would really come in handy. François R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saraartist Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I too would love if it snapped. There is no other way to curve objects around a path other than warp. Text can be placed along a curved path but not shapes and vector objects. I often import text from Canva as an svg to use their font bank but then I cannot curve the letters accurately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
