awakenedbyowls Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 I'm laying down some basic vector shapes - closing them - for a new project For some reason I can't work out though it's no longer creating a new layer when I close an object and starting laying down new points - what am I doing wrong ? has some setting changed ? What button have I pressed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartRc Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Sounds like you are using specific Pen Mode toggle! On context Menu with pen selected: Pen Mode: have you activated 'Add new curve to selected object'?

awakenedbyowls Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 Probably Can't see the icon on my toolbar though ? Draw curves and shapes (affinity.help) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awakenedbyowls Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 I just created another document and it's doing what it's supposed to there - I've obviously hit some setting but I can't see this icon - anywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awakenedbyowls Posted June 11, 2023 Author Share Posted June 11, 2023 To hell with it - I just copied the layers I've put down into another document and it's working as supposed to now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're still interested, a screenshot of what you do see might be helpful.

Sorry I got distracted - it's not happened again so probably hit a button or something I'll revisit this thread and figure it out if it happens again Cheers walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
