ADRs Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Is there something changed with how boolean add works in v2? i've got different result from what i usually get from v1 (AFAIK even in Illustrator and other software that i've used, the boolean add behaviour is the same as v1). It makes creating a flowing cursive text (think of coca cola logo) harder and longer because i need to use shape builder if i want to get the usual (and correct) result. i only tested it on add mode, don't know if other mode affected too. In v2, the overlapping edge is not combined, but become a separated like what you get from boolean divide (except it combined into single layer/object) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff NathanC Posted February 23, 2023 Staff Share Posted February 23, 2023 Hi @ADRs, In V2, If you select your object and change the fill mode to Winding (Layer > Fill Mode > Winding) and then do the add operation this should give you the filled overlapping result that you're looking for. https://affinity.help/designer2/English.lproj/pages/CurvesShapes/fillMode.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADRs Posted February 23, 2023 Author Share Posted February 23, 2023 didn't know about that menu, thanks @NathanC i guess affinity really needs persistent default setting for some of it's tools or feature, have to change the default behaviour of different feature/settings for every layer/tools is quite tedious.
