Ventura 13.2.1

Affinity Designer 2.5.3

Mac mini, M2 processor

In the top bar I can see the alignment icon, it works fine. But I use it a lot, and want to have it in a permanent panel. I see no way to create and dock such panel. It should be under. It should be under ---window, or under ---window ---studio. But nothing there. Did I miss something, or is there no way to create/open a panel for this useful option?

Try View>Customise Toolbar.

No, you cannot open a panel for that at the moment

But you can request it in the "Feedback & Suggestions" forum

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Sorry, I thought it might be a bug, I remember an older version did have the option I missed in here. First time here, bare with me.

No version of the Affinity applications has ever had that function. Perhaps you're thinking of the older "Plus" (legacy) Serif applications, which are entirely different and unrelated?

I saw it in one tutorial (third party)

You can’t have seen it in a tutorial for the Affinity applications because it’s never been like that in the Affinity applications.

I can live without it.

Just out of curiosity, why can't you use the added direct commands in the Toolbar as I suggested?

I had added all the items way back when but I didn't use them because of the missing controls. First/Last selected Margin, Spread and Selection Bounds. A dedicated panel would be quite useful in my opinion.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
