Chris M.. Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) Hello good people of Affinity, My problem is trying to get the nodes (curves) to connect into a solid shape. The four highlighted curves on the right side of the image, are supposed to roughly create a star/sun shape. When I hit the add bar at the far left, what I end up with is the image underneath, which gives this diamond line shape over everything. Is this something other people experience as well? I have no idea how to get around the issue. Any help is much appreciated. Edited May 6, 2019 by Chris M.. Clarification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just edited the wording, to clarify, because I did do what you suggested initially, and that gave me the problem I still have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gear maker Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Chris, in the node tool click on the action Join Curves. Personally I would only select 2 of the layers that "connect" then do the join (you have more control). The 2 layers should become one. Then select again 2 layers that should "connect" click Join, etc. When you have all 4 in one layer click on the Action Close Curve. That should do what you want. firstdefence 1 Quote iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) with macOS Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
