antonkudin Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 In AF i'd like to change colors used for checkerboard pattern. When working on UI elements document for my game, I use white for icons and color them in game engine. All I see in AF is parts that are on light gray. Checkerboard pattern needs to be close to 50% brightness. davemac2015 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princec Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Yes! Yes! This, 1000x this! I have to keep changing everything to black or red before I edit it and then change it back to white before I save it out. All it'll take is just one slider... While you're at it wouldn't it be nice to lock the checkerboard and zoom such that it aligns with the pixel grid...

princec Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 bump... how would we bring this to the attention of the Affinity team? It's such an easy thing to do. Cas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 We've been assured that the Affinity team reads everything in this forum. They seldom, however, comment on their plans or reveal whether they've decided to implement one of the requests. Nor do they say when something will be implemented.

carl123 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 In AD just add a rectangle to cover the document, move to bottom of Layer stack, colour it what you like and reduce the opacity, the checkerboard can be tinted to any colour with this method For AP use a Fill Layer princec 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

princec Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Bit of a faff but a nice workaround for sure. Cas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
