Mischugo Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Hi there, is there any option to create /change a smoothing paths from countless nodes? i have a big puzzle put together to one object and thousands of nodes. I would like to reduce them. Convert: "smooth" does not work, may be because it's an "union object" _Th and JariH 2 Quote Die Now Live Later - KMFDM
gdenby Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 While the "smooth" widget will sometimes remove a few nodes, AD doesn't have a curve simplifying routine as yet. The apps I've used that do will often slightly change the shape of the vector, so they can't be used when shapes that need to be closely positioned, Quote iMac 27" Retina, c. 2015: OS X 10.11.5: 3.3 GHz I c-5: 32 Gb, AMD Radeon R9 M290 2048 Mb iPad 12.9" Retina, iOS 10, 512 Gb, Apple pencil Huion WH1409 tablet
JariH Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 It is now 2023. I really could use a "simplify curve" tool. Reducing vertices without manual labour is sometimes useful. Can we please have a tool to reduce data and smooth? _Th 1 Quote
_Th Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I had no idea that this basic feature was missing. It's been requested numerous times over the years. Having just changed computers, I'm torn between installing a very old copy of Illustrator or Inkscape... While I appreciate the recently-updated suite, I sure wish Affinity would nail these basics, many of which have been around elsewhere for a very long time. JariH 1 Quote
