pioneer Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Just a small question. I have been creating an ellipse logo for use with reflective Vinyl and I wanted the roughen the line of the ellipse but could not find any tool in AP or AD. For those of you that may have used DrawPus in the past there was a roughen tool. Is this sort of feature available in Affinity? I ended up painting a line around the ellipse to achieve the result I required.

thomaso Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 What kind of roughen? As far I know there is no "Jitter Tool" (maybe in V2?). Apart from your mentioned brush (or via mask) another workaround to get the ellipse less evenly could be with adding nodes (smooth) + switching node types. For instance: roughen curve.m4v pioneer 1 Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Return Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Another overlooked option is to use compounds for shapes. 2023-09-09 10-48-03.mp4 pruus 1 Quote Win11Pro/64gbRam/RTX3060Ti + Win10Home/32gbRam/GTX1050Ti + Win11Home/16gbRam/RTX3050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Return Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 And for lines maybe use the sculpt option in the penciltool. 2023-09-09 11-16-07.mp4 pioneer 1 Quote Win11Pro/64gbRam/RTX3060Ti + Win10Home/32gbRam/GTX1050Ti + Win11Home/16gbRam/RTX3050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
