Important features requested for graphic designers and digital illustrators: (1) different vertical and horizontal gaps for the column guides setting; (2) better variable stroke size

Hi, as a graphic designer and illustrator, I would be very happy if the new features listed below would be added to all the Affinity programmes.

(1) Different gap width for the vertical and horizontal columns. I know we can come around and set them differently by adding guides manually. But it would be so convenient if we are able to set different gaps for vertical and horizontal columns right in the Guides settings, as we can only set the same gaps for both horizontal and vertical columns at this moment.

(2) Hopefully Affinity can introduce Adobe Illustrator's way to create variable stroke size (please see the picture below). It's more direct and precise than how it works with Affinity programmes now. If this function is available. I'm sure Affinity would be the No.1 programme for all the digital artist (especially the vector art illustrator). Do you agree? (Plus, the live flood colouring would be nice too)

 

 

Hope I'm not asking too much from Affinity as you've already been brilliant to bring us these powerful and competitive software to enhance our work efficiency. Really look forward to seeing more surprise Affinity can bring us in the future. 😄
