New Document settings


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to understand why Affinity Designer resets some user options from the previous document, and not others.

 

For instance, the font resets to Arial. There's another font I use all the time, so it would be great if Designer could just remember that font when I start a new document.

 

However, new documents do retain 'protect alpha', which catches me out regularly. (Why isn't this pen working? Oh.) That seems like an odd choice, because 'protect alpha' tends to be a temporary solution to a drawing process rather than a 'permanent kind of setting'.

 

There are other examples, but those illustrate my general point. Are there reasons behind these choices that I can't see?

Hi Stace,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

Sticky settings are still a little inconsistent in the program. They were already implemented in a few areas/tools and not on others as you noticed. We are still improving/polishing this.

Regarding the protect alpha issue, I agree it shouldn't be sticky. I'm checking it out and will report this to the dev team. Thanks for your feedback.
