Voting for updates

[felipe_g]

Is there a place/way we can vote for updates, so they can be considered?

You can post suggestions to the Feedback forum. Votes are generally not taken into account when Serif make their development decisions.

Something that needs to change in my opinion

Just to be clear, are you voting against our being granted an opportunity to vote?

I'm voting no to a voting system.

Me, too, except I would vote for adding Copy/Replace. I could have used that about a hundred times yesterday.

You're voting no to voting by voting for a different feature? 

This is getting very confusing!

It may not be a different feature since we don't know what feature @felipe_g wants to vote for.

it doesnt matter what the feature is, everyone should have an opportunity to vote for ones they like

What if nobody votes for the one I want?

Why should only forum members dictate policy for Affinity? What about the millions of Affinity users who choose not to participate in the forum? Perhaps Affinity should email a voting form to every user before making any decisions! If the management and staff of Affinity aren't allowed to make such decisions themselves, how is it any fairer for a small percentage of users to do so?

That isn't quite the whole story. They do take into account how many users have asked for some particular new feature, but it is only one of the things that they consider when deciding what to work on developing next.

No matter what the outcome it will not be democratic or even fair to indeed other users.

I would prefer fair and objective "+1000000" here 🙂

You can already "vote" for certain features today by providing Serif with enough information about the importance of these features (something new, of course, and not something that has been repeated hundreds of times by one user) to consider the importance and benefit of the feature in question and possibly adjust its priority.

I asked in this forum where copy/replace was because I could have sworn I had used it before. The question was moved to the suggestion forum. Maybe I'll suggest it again taking your information into account.
