GarryP Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Nice work. One thing I noticed was that you seem to use rectangles to construct the layout quite often. Guides could be useful here but if you’re comfortable working your way then that’s absolutely fine. I only mention it in case anyone reading this hasn’t tried using guides (or doesn’t know about them). One very minor issue is that all of the files look the same; same name, same date and same size. As I said that’s a minor issue but worth considering for future work, especially work that is used in a professional presentation. (And 24KB will only get you around 1 second of audio at 192Kbps. That’s nit-picking but some people do notice these things.) All said and done though, a good-looking interface. earl_grey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use rectangles too often and don't name objects. I don't use guides because in my opinion affinity designer should have a separate studio for easy manage them. I will work on my habits in next projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 You’re welcome. Personally I think a persona for page layout functions – guides, grids etc. – would be a nice thing to have but I don’t know how well it would work in conjunction with Publisher which has master pages (each of which can have their own guides etc.). I’ve added a new thread to see if the idea has any traction: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/94513-would-it-make-sense-have-a-“layout-persona”/ earl_grey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
