Schwabby Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I am trying to accomplish something I do in Illo all the time but can’t seem to do in affinity. i like to convert my type to paths, and then merge the shapes. in Affinity I have converted the text to curves and then used the add command but it still won’t merge. See image for the overlap not going away. its almost as if I am missing a step after I convert the type to curves. Anyone have the answer?

Schwabby Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Yes, here it is. As you can see from the file, I merged the shapes with no problem. If you look back in the history you can see that I converted to curves, then did add. It might not be in that state currently. type merged.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwabby Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 I got it! It has to be ungrouped first....it is pretty messy but that can be cleaned up! Now to get the offset path in Affinity figured out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
