terrox Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 For some reason I thought Affinity Designer allowed Plugins but it doesn't. I would like to replace my Fireworks obsession with Affinity Designer. The things I value most in Fireworks are - vectors, as separate objects, can be grouped. (tick) - objects can have effects applied and be editable as vectors (tick) - effects can be extended using plugins, even photoshop plugins, allowing for editable vectors to display with torn paper effect and change the torn paper settings as needed. (fail, no plugins, no plugins as layer effects) Affinity Photo also does not extend the layer/live effects by allowing 3rd party photoshop filters as far as I can tell either. I can't even get it to use any plugins from Photoshop 5.5, 8 or CC 2015 but that might be my own bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrox Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 Affinity Photo Live Filters are fairly handy for some non-destructive effects on a replaceable image layer. I would still like to be able to use the render output from a 3rd party plugin as a non-destructive effect though. I can't really think of a way to achieve this in Affinity products. fractals, edges, lightning, brick textures etc which all apply to the Alpha layer and remain editable.
