TurboCooler Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I want to draw a series of straight lines. In other drawing programs you could often hold a key while using a pencil or pen tool and it would always give you a straight line. Is there a similar concept? brad.cannell and HaroldBark 2 Quote Affinity Designer 1.5.1.43 Windows 10 Pro, i7, 32gb RAM, MSI GTX 970 Using it for Board game design/enhancements, icon designs for software development, design of items to be cut on laser cutters.

R C-R Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 You can do this with the Pen tool set to Line mode.

Alfred Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 For a line which is perfectly horizontal, vertical or at an angle of 45 degrees, click with the Pen Tool where you want the line to begin and then hold down the Shift key as you click again to define the end point. brad.cannell 1 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...
