Kobold Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 As a long time Freehand user I been working regularly with the knife tool. As just the update been (1.2) ready today, I am still missing that very important tool. Making workarounds is not a good solution. To me a knife tool is a very basic need, and I guess that there´s more guys around missing that tool same way as I do. Nice, day, cheers! moonbeetle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted April 2, 2015 Staff Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hello Kobold, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) The Knife tool is on our roadmap, but it's not yet implemented in the 1.2 update. Due to time and resource constraints it's not possible to integrate everything at once. Rest assured it will be added as soon as possible.

byHEART Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It's dissapointing nothing like this is available. Editing vectors is pretty impossible for me without this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIPStephan Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It's dissapointing nothing like this is available. Editing vectors is pretty impossible for me without this. Well, actually you can still edit vector shapes with a minor workaround: add points on the shape where you want to cut it and then use the “open curve” (or whatever it says in English; I have a different language) from the context panel. You can then delete the point(s) you want to get rid of and there you go, you’ve cut your shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 10, 2015 Staff Share Posted October 10, 2015 Hi byHEART, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Select the Node Tool to add a point where you want to cut the path (or select an existing node) and press Break Curve on the context toolbar. The Knife Tool is already planned and will be available in a future update.
