mcl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I have looked in the forums and can not find an answer. I use Affinity Designer on a MAC I want to import an image and create a line drawing of the image for a friend who wants to use it for her painting class. I can not remember what software I used, but in the dark distant past, I am sure I selected a function and adjusted the brightness or something until I got enough lines to give me my line drawing. The program may have been Corel Draw. Is this possible with AD. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 9, 2017 Staff Share Posted May 9, 2017 Hi mcl, You are probably talking about a tracing function (PowerTRACE in the case of CorelDraw), that is, converting an image to vector objects/lineart. Affinity Designer doesn't have such a function. There's plans to implement one if its output/results are up to what developers expect in terms of quality, but for now you have to use a third party application like Inkscape (open source), Super Vectorizer 2, Vector Magic or a web service to do the conversion.
