François R Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I made a test of warp groups on a medium complex group with lots of elements with FX. The pleasing snappy performance of Affinity is totally gone here, I have an M1 equipped Mac, but the adjusted perspective is rendered like in the old computer days. That being said it was perhaps not a completely fair test, but a bit surprising though. I just sat there looking at chunks of rendered objects appearing second after second. I hope you expect to optimize this in the future. My thought was therefore that I should go into wireframe view mode to adjust the perspective there, so I wouldn't have to sit and wait for the render, trial by trial for the right perspective. It doesn't work at all. I see no result from my changes. So I try to open more simple files. But I see nothing but a perspective frame in wireframe mode when I want to edit a warp group. Is that the case? Then I am are bound to edit the perspective in normal mode with slow performance. I use wireframe mode often when I am dealing with complex drawing - I do that most of the time.

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 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Hi François, I believe this issue has been logged already. I agree, it would be nice if it worked in wireframe mode.

I would be a shame to convert content to curves prematurely just to make it visible in wireframe mode. Also... that the original content is visible will make the wireframe mode look totally weird.
