Hi, I am really enjoying Affinity and I have been receiving a lot of help from the forums, so hooray forums! 

 

One feature in Affinity I use a quite a bit is shapes and I was wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut for "convert to curves?"  I find myself interrupting my workflow frequently to toggle that option.   :-)  It's not big deal, but I'd love to have a keyboard response for such a useful tool.

Not yet.  More customisation will be coming at some point.

 

You can convert to curve on the page using the right click context menu instead of using the app menu.

Look at Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts > Layer > Make your own shortcut here if you use Publisher or CTRL + Return, when you are using Designer or Photo.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

Ok, I'm the dummy, what is the icon for "convert to curves" AP v2

In tools or Tool bar 

With tools, is there  away to have the name under the icon?

(I don't get AP emails :38_worried: so I have to come to check ---- I might forget if I find it myself

For iPad see below.

For Desktop : it’s in the context toolbar while a shape tool, move tool or node tool is active
