Tlottrike Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I used to use Freehand and I was able to do text with multiple strokes. However in Affinity Designer I haven't found a way to do this without duplicating text and then messing about with the stroke widths/font size. Am I missing something or is what I'm doing the only way to do it? Below is an example I did using Freehand Quote OSX 10.14.6 iMac 21.5-inch, Late 2012, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 8gb RAM Affinity Designer, Photo and Publisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Version 1.7 (currently in beta) includes an Appearance panel where you can add and configure multiple strokes.

carl123 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I do not believe the Appearance Panel currently works with text Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine.
