Noob Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 In AP, it's difficult to determine which color is applied to stroke and fill because they have the same solid circle indicator. In AD the fill indicator is a solid circle and the stroke indicator has a hole in the middle — this make it very easy to distinguish the two. AP's stroke color indicator should also have the hollow center. Reference image: https://drp.io/i/VkdtWzOyZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I only have Windows here, so I don't have the Affinity apps yet, but I suspect that the colours in Affinity Photo are background and foreground rather than stroke and fill. By the way, I see that drp.io destroys files every Sunday, so your reference image is going to disappear in four days' time. It would be better to use the attachments facility (via 'More Reply Options' or 'Use Full Editor').

Staff MEB Posted April 14, 2016 Staff Share Posted April 14, 2016 Hi Noob, As @Alfred said, those circles represent Foreground and Background colours in Affinity Photo. In Affinity Designer we have Fill and Stroke instead since they make more sense in the context of a vector app (all objects have those attributes).
