Hello!
I am back again with the problem of pathways. Specifically export and expand stroke. I have created a decorative line with a pressure option. You can see it in the screenshot and in the attached file. After expanding the strokes I have no thicknesses only at the beginning and end. Not only is this the only option to create spot-coloured objects (because it's a layer for a convex label varnish), it doesn't work as expected.... Whether I want to make an expand stroke or immediately export as PDF - the effect is the same.... I can't turn it into a bitmap because I have a CMYK background underneath, and Affinity doesn't support SPOT in vector-bitmap brushes.... Only enlarge the paths with 6x and then (sometimes) a satisfactory effect comes out.... but this is not a solution if you are working on a series of products.... besides, generating a group of such paths takes a good 4 minutes and no effect... i realise it's a very thin line, but that's no excuse....

Have you tried using the file I attached? Let's determine that these line thicknesses suit me and my client...
