usmanshahzad Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I would like to achieve this, but this plugin is for photoshop only, how can i achieve this using affinity designer, because i never want to go back to Adobe :-) http://graphicriver.net/item/isometric-ground-mockup-actions/11171437 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Yes you can achieve this with Affinity Designer; it will be easier if you use the recent Customer Beta version as it includes some grid and snapping improvements specifically for this kind of illustration. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/15-affinity-designer-beta (go to the top post of the top thread in the linked forum). The Affinity Designer Customer Beta requires that you have the Mac App Store version also installed, and it will work alongside it indefinitely (although we recommend you update it when prompted). If you do not have the Mac App Store version of Affinity Designer installed, the Customer Beta release can only work as a 10 day trial. Cheers, Dale.

usmanshahzad Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi, Thanks for the link to the beta version but you still didn't tell me how can i make any image in to isometric shape, can you guide me to the right direction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted June 17, 2015 Staff Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi usmanshahzad, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) There's no automated way to do it like the actions you are using in Photoshop. Currently you have to built the isometric view manually using the isometric grid as a reference to help you position the objects.

Dale Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yes sorry for that, MEB is right, you need to use an isometric grid. In the beta version of Affinity Designer you will find a Grid and Axis Manager in the View menu. You can set up a nice 3-axis grid that will make this kind of illustration far easier to achieve compared to using the current Mac App Store release of the app. Uncheck Use automatic grid to set up a grid with your own choice of spacing, choosing a preset like Isometric from the drop-down list to make it easy if you wish.
