Rounded Corner in Affinity Publisher

[th_studio]

Hello friends. Is there any way to make corners rounded in Publisher? I know that corners of some regular/default shapes of Publisher can be made rounded. But I'm talking about the corners of random shapes. Looking forward to your opinion. TIA!

1. After drawing your shape select the node tool
2. Put a node either side of the corner node and then delete the corner node
3. Mouse over the straight line, click-hold and drag to bend the line.

The corner can be sized by the placement of the nodes either side of the corner node.

If you have Designer as well as Publisher you could use the Corner Tool in the Designer persona.

In the contextual tools of the toolbar you'll find the Corner settings. 

With the Single Radius option checked, you can change all four corners uniformly.

With the Single Radius option un-checked, you can change the four corners independently.

Question was about "random" shapes - probably hand-drawn ones.

Ah. Right. I missed that.

It appears that the OP wants to construct a non-standard text or image frame. In that case, it a job for the pen tool.

I actually know that. But I don't have access to AD right now. Hopefully I'll get that asap

I've just spent an hour looking for what you'd think would be a simple toggle to have some basic corner options. Disappointing.

What´s wrong with Corner Tool (c)?

You don't seem to be asking about the same thing as the OP!

Which app are you using?

What do you want to change the corners on? (A rectangle, another shape, textbox, picture frame, random drawn shape (which is what the OP was asking about!) etc)

What do you mean by "basic corner options"?

[PixelPest]

Not sure. Something like this?

[Stepaan]

As @PixelPest mentioned before. There is a Corner tool...

I'm still not sure if it's about Designer or Publisher.

If you mean the tutorial, it is for AD but if you have AD installed, then via Studio Link you can switch to the Designer Persona of APub, where the same Corner Tool is available.
