[APu Feature] Would you introduce GREP Styles, Toolbar/Studio Customization, Ctrl/Cmd + drag to move?

[Fantomas.CZ]

Hi everyone, especially Affinity Staff!

I'd like to ask, if you are planning to introduce following options:

• GREP Styles. It has been quite extensively discussed in older versions, but no clear word has been said, whether it might be introduced. Could you please comment on this? 
• Toolbar/Studio Customization. In working on my books, what I change the most is: font + text size (no issue here), language, paragraph properties like indents and space before/after. In InDesign, all of those functions are conveniently placed in the toolbar, but in Affinity Publisher, I need to keep switching between the Character and Paragraph Studio, which eats up a lot of time and effort. Would you be willing to let us customize that? I would gladly sacrifice another row of icons in the toolbar to get the language/paragraph spacing options right there...
• Ctrl/Cmd + drag to move. While in editing mode, I often need to move a picture or resize the textbox. In InDesign, this is a simple matter of pressing Ctr/Cmd and just drag or resize, and then I'm back in the editing mode. Meanwhile in APu, I need to press Esc several times in order to really quit the editing mode (once usually isn't enough, for some reason), then press V, then move/resize, and double click to get back in the editing mode. This is definitely not more practical. Or is there some patent preventing Affinity to introduce this? 

Thanks for any answers, I'm quite sure that I'm not the only one to have such questions.

Cheers, have a nice day!

With the purchase of Affinity by Canva, I'm not really noticing much change in the rate that announcements of new features happens. I was hoping that with the extra money that may have been put into assisting Affinity in moving on new features that some of the long asked for features may see the light of day. Enough ranting for today.

I've noticed from when I first started using Affinity, that Affinity is hesitant to release any Road Map for product development. I think that a well maintained road map would appease those of us who come across as constantly flogging our agendas. Specifically, my hobby horse is Grep Styles. If I knew that it even is being considered, and the priority that it would have in the development process, it would appease people like me and perhaps reassure me that this feature, for example, is actually in the works.

Grep Styles would be one of the enticements that could lure Adobe users to the more welcoming fold of Affinity. Tied in with this could be (if I could dream) robust nested styles, not the limited two style max that Affinity Publisher seems to allow.

Let's make the Affinity Suite the best thing out there!
