On Affinity Designer Work book page 241 for Ceiling

[webworld]

Affinity Design Work Book:

Can any of you understand on page 241 and number 3 for Ceiling?

I do not understand how to divide the ellipse and rectangles.  I know where the divide icon is on the Designer software.

Also, am I supposed to have two different colors on ellipse and rectangles?

Hi Webworld,

Once you've got the ellipse and rectangles select it should just be a case of pressing the Dive button.  You can then just select the parts of the rectangle outside of the ellipse and you'll be able to delete them  .  As for the colour, it doesn't really matter.  We've used blue on that page to highlight certain elements to show them as being selected.

But what if you are not in a submarine?

ha ha.  I just dive in the water...

Yes, Stokerg.   I also copied it to cover the spaces which I did not follow in the instructions because I could not figure out the problem.
