Designer: Selection from Path


Recommended Posts

3 hours ago, RenWaller said:

Hello, is there a way to create a selection from a path that was drawn with the pen tool in Affinity Designer? I know this can be done in Photo, but what about Designer?

Yes, but it requires a bit of a workaround.

Draw the path and fill it with a colour.

Ctrl (PC) + click on the path layer thumbnail (in the layers panel). 

Click on the image layer. That’s it, the selection is now on the image layer.

p.s. make sure the image is a ‘pixel’ layer, not an ‘image’ layer, or you will need to Rasterize it first.

Windows PCs. Photo and Designer, latest non-beta versions.
