mikebiskup Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I subscribe to Illustrator when needed to create vector versions of my paintings. I use image trace. Can I do that with any tools in Affinity Suite? Thanks! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted June 28, 2019 Staff Share Posted June 28, 2019 Hi mikebiskup, Welcome to Affinity Forums No, currently there's no auto-trace functionality in Affinity Designer (or any other app of the suite). We do plan to add it later assuming the dev team manages to achieve the output quality they are aiming for. There's however several third party utilities that allow you to do it (besides Illustrator) and import the results to Designer. mikebiskup 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebiskup Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 Oh cool! Could you tell me the other 3rd party apps that can do this? Thank you for your quick answer, and I'm sure your team can make it happen as some point. I'm loving Affinity Photo lately! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distill7 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Inkscape can trace images to vectors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted July 1, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 1, 2019 Hi mikebiskup, I don't know what platform you are running (Mac or Windows) so I'm pointing a few for both platforms: - Super Vectorizer 2 (Mac)- Image Vectorizer (Mac; based on Potrace)- Vector Magic (Mac and Windows; also available as a web service)- Potrace (Mac and Windows; check Related software and services section for graphical user interfaces/software)- Inkscape (open source vector app that includes an auto-trace feature) Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
