Alfred Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 In Affinity Designer: 1. Select both curves and choose the Node Tool 2. Press the 'Join curves' button (second from the right on the Action toolbar) 3. Press the 'Close curve' button (second from the left on the Action toolbar) Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheLoung Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hi, the Join works, but AI has the ability to average the position of two points before you join them. I use it all the time, is there a way of doing this in Affinity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkibui Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 AD does not have that. It is a frustrating feature to lack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misternoe Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I signed up to this forum just to chime in on the lack of Average tool. Unless you are working with a pixel grid, there is no way to align nodes vertically or horizontally. I cannot emphasize enough how crucial this simple function can speed up productivity. I have been using Illustrator for 18 years now and this is one of those deal-breaker features—moreso than offset paths or reflecting from a specific origin—that is holding back Illustrator vets from joining team Affinity. For now I will continue to align points manually using x and y coordinates, but please consider adding this feature for users that need perfect alignment.

SMOK Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) I agree this to use it as a pro, this is essential 🙂 UPDATE, just found out, if you zoom in and drop one of the points to another, the curve will connect.
