hannah Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Good day! If you would like to copy a part of any vectorshape, now you have to (1) copy the path, (2) select 2 nodes seperately, (3) break them, (4) ungroup the object, (5) delete the part you don't need. (6) break and delete node, if open path is required OR (1) copy the path, (2) draw a path on top of it that includes the area you'd like to keep, (3) mark the two objects, (4) use intersect-tool, (5) break and delete node, if open path is required I would very much like to simply (1) SELECT the part of a curve I want and then press (2) COPY+PASTE to paste the selection. Thank you for considering! Aammppaa, LeeColarelli, telemax and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom.s Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Looking to do this and came across a few posts saying you can't do it. Like what?! For real?! That seems so bad to me. It's simple UX stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 21, 2020 Staff Share Posted August 21, 2020 Hi tom.s, Welcome to Affinity Forums I've moved this to the current Feedback & Suggestion section to bring this up to devs attention again.

Murilo M. Cabral Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Is this comming to affinity designer 2? I'm used to work with another software, but I'm trying my way in affinity. In this other software, I can do exactly like like Hannah said. I can select only a few nodes from a curve object, copy just the selected nodes and paste. It makes many tasks faster and easier to do. There is somes other suggestions that would make it become better for everyone, I guess. But I am kind of waiting for somes old requests to be heard. Not requests of mine.

Staff MEB Posted December 19, 2023 Staff Share Posted December 19, 2023 Hi @Murilo M. Cabral, Welcome to Affinity Forums Thanks for your feedback. I don't know if this is planned for inclusion but will make sure to pass your feedback to the dev team for consideration. It is indeed an useful feature. The "closest" functionality we have available is this ("replicate" a path) in case you are not aware. Thanks. Murilo M.
