Weedz Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I can't seem to find where to edit my post. I still think line smoothing should be optional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weedz Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Yep, I was logged in. Probably was because it was my first post ever. Don't worry. I won't catch up. Promise. Soon as 'Bitmap in Publisher' and 'Line Smoothing in Designer' - or Line Smootin as I like to call it - will be implemented I will reenter my forumless live once again.

jrmleduc Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I'm a new user, optimistic. But I too must admit I noticed almost immediately that smoothing screws up detailed gestures and freehand text terribly. For on ocd person like me this is a potential deal breaker.

AncientWire Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I have been using Serif products for many years, but I only recently started drawing with a pen on my Microsoft Surface. After some experimenting, I have turned the stabilizer off which is best for me at the moment. I have 2 different pens for my Surface, and have found that the hard plastic tip does a better job than the soft rubber tip. I have been struggling with drawing an oval for an eye in one line - the line moves around when I pick up my pen. I can draw a decent oval, but when Affinity Designer does it's thing, the oval is no longer the oval I drew, but can become egg shaped, or have areas that are more flattened or more rounded than the original line that I drew. When I go back and look at the nodes, sometimes an oval will only have 3 nodes - beginning, end and more often than not one close to the beginning, with the rest of the shape relying on however the bezer curves are decided by the software. My ovals can have up to 10 nodes. It would be nice if something like this could have a more consistent number of nodes. In short, Affinity Designer is "helping" to create a worse oval not a better one. Sort of like when autocorrect gets it completely wrong I do want some of the smoothing that software can help with and not have shaky lines and tons of nodes because I am a beginning artist Perhaps there could be a setting that would create a number of nodes per inch?

Jungle Juice Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) I agree can we get a more accurate brush please although the pencil does work for more accuracy? Edited January 21 by Jungle Juice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgallegos Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Are there any updates on this? Auto smoothing is beyond annoying. You should be able to draw whatever you want.I feel this feature is very counterproductive as it limits what I can draw in the software. You should be able to turn it on and off or have a slider as in inkscape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
