tarc Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Hi, Is there a way that new objects doesn't pick up properties of last selected but always use default? tarc Jimmypearf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri-Toon Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Unfortunately no, but if you copy the new object and then select the original, you can paste the style of the original one to the new one. (Edit > Paste Style, or Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V). tarc 1 Quote The website is still a work in progress. The "Comics" and "Shop" sections are not yet ready.

tarc Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 Thanks leduc, sad to hear there's no setting for this. It’s somewhat tedious to be aware of what you manipulate not to change the settings, or hitting reset or applying styles all the time. It would be nice not to have this in mind while working, it seems like a simpler way. tarc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri-Toon Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I believe Affinity is working on improving the color picker. I'm not sure if it will copy the properties as well, but it would make things easier if it does. Quote The website is still a work in progress. The "Comics" and "Shop" sections are not yet ready.

R C-R Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 There should be a two icon "Defaults" item on the main toolbar. If you are using the default toolbar arrangement, it should be the second item after the Personas icon set. Both icons use a rounded 5 point star, one with an up-pointing arrow & the other is filled in & has a red slash mark in it. The first one syncs the defaults for the currently selected tool to the current selection; the other reverts that tool to the defaults. So for example, if the Pen tool is defaulting to the last used fill & stroke colors, selecting the Pen tool & clicking the second icon (with the slash mark) reverts those settings to the factory defaults; conversely, clicking the first icon with some object selected sets the Pen tool to use that object's settings the next time you draw something with the Pen tool. tarc and Bri-Toon 2 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.4.1 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 Affinity Photo 1.10.8; Affinity Designer 1.108; & all 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri-Toon Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 There should be a two icon "Defaults" item on the main toolbar. I completely forgot about those two options. Sweet.

That seems to work for me, thanks professor ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
