What is Affinity Range?

[casterle]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what is Affinity Range? 

I've got Affinity Photo and know about Affinity Designer and the upcoming Publisher but have been able to find nothing about this product.

I think you must have misread references to “the Affinity range”, i.e. the suite of programs comprising Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher.

I was confused because there are several forums on the page from which I arrived (screenshot below). Note that they are all for products except, apparently, for this one.

Thanks, yes, that's an understandable confusion. You need understand that the Affinity products all share a common base of code, and a common file format, and therefore some suggestions could apply across all the products (Photo, Designer) across both the desktop and iPad. Eventually, after the release of Publisher, some suggestions could apply to 3 products, rather than just two

Thank you for the clarification. In reading the posts I couldn't determine what product was being discussed; now I understand why.

Has anyone suggested a Studio-type product combining Photo and Designer? I went to the forum looking for just such a creature.

Yes, perfectly understandable when you see the list of which the OP has kindly provided a screenshot! The title for that forum section is missing the important word “the” (and there’s that weird thing of extra spaces inside the parentheses).

Perhaps it could be called 'The Affinity Range of Products'.

Thanks for pointing this out. It is now "Suggestions for the Affinity Suite of Products"
