KTDN Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 As great as Affinity Designer is, and as much as I love using it, I can’t stress how necessary and useful it would be to have the ability to “Live Trace” bitmap images for conversion to vector. I’d go as far as to say it’s one of the few major features holding Designer back from becoming a true Adobe Illustrator replacement. It’s no secret that many iPad users love using bitmap only applications like Procreate to create their initial designs and later, are looking for ways to to convert these into vector versions. Including a tool like this would make starting in bitmap and finishing up exclusively in vector so much easier and more possible using only the iPad than ever before. Please, consider a Live Trace like feature for a future update and please like &/or comment if you also believe a feature like this would be useful in your workflow!

abetterjulie Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hi, I should have looked this up before I bought, I think. I wanted to smooth the pixel lines of my procreate art and thought I'd be able to do that in Affinity. I'm seeing now that this maybe ISN'T a thing I can do? Am I correct in understanding that there's no feature for refining pixelated edges from procreate in this program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way to lock so the crop cannot go outside the image itself? Kind Regards Joe Langdale 11 hours ago, abetterjulie said: Hi, I should have looked this up before I bought, I think.

Post some of your art, and someone might point out a technique or process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2989 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I too NEED a Live Trace option in Affinity Designer Very surprised that such a sophisticated program as the Affinity designer does not have this feature yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
