Affinity Designer - Variable softness

[JariH]

Hello,

I would like to suggest a feature for better and more natural shape creation and editing: variable edge softness, similar functionality to variable stroke width. An irreplaceable function used in other softwares for precise control of the shapes.

Creating softness for complex gradients, details and shapes with the Gaussian blur FX creates an easily recognizable look because it affects everything. More control for edge softness and gradients would open up a lot of new possibilities - I could even ditch the requested Mesh Gradient for this 😁
