Dave Quail Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Works fine for me on Designer 1.6.4.104 Released version. Have you tried selecting Stabiliser?

Staff Sean P Posted August 6, 2018 Staff Share Posted August 6, 2018 Hi Nalayak, It looks like the first image was drawn with a vector brush, so by its very nature will always be smooth. Vector does not use pixels and always retains sharpness no matter what the zoom. The second looks like it has been drawn with a raster paint brush with 100% Hardness so will give some pixellation around the edges. I would suggest moving the hardness down to 80-90% and then try again. This will smooth out the raster brush edges so it doesn't look too jagged.

R C-R Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 @nalayak You might get a more graphic idea of the difference between vectors & pixels by using Affinity Designer's View Mode options with this 2 vectors.afdesign file. It is intentionally very small (just 240 px square) to clearly show what happens when vectors shapes are rasterized (turned into pixels), so open it at the default 'Zoom To Fit" view size, or zoom even farther in so only a part of the curves are showing. The 2 vectors should look nice & sharp, but note what happens when you click on Pixel view mode, the leftmost icon in this group of 3 in the menubar: Compare that to how they look when you click on Retina pixel view mode, the middle icon. The view mode does not change the vectors in any way. It just shows you what they would look like if rendered at different pixel resolutions.
