@FastVector i think i see it, adding a Node doesnt work when you activate the Node Tool with the Control Key. Your are right its the same here. Seems if you activate the Node Tool with the Control Key that the Node Tool its a bit limited then. Adding a Node works only by selecting the Node Tool direct.

Just one last screenshot once the reference object is created, the rest only takes a few minutes, by varying the positions of the nodes(/handles)... this could be the starting point for various designs... have fun testing all this

@VectorStyler Sorry, I've been a bit busy lately. I didn't explain clearly. I meant multiple blended shapes, not a single blended shape. I couldn't find the files I make on before. I'll redo them when I have some time and send them to you.

would also plead for a way where this option can be switched on and off in a quickly accessible way e.g. Brush panel or something similar

@lilith said in Affinity Designer vs VectorStyler: In terms of learning, there are a lot of 'AD' video tutorials on YouTube, but almost none video tutorials of 'VS'; So it's difficult for beginners to get started with VS Well, nothing against YouTube videos, VS Vimeo videos have helped me in one case or another. I found them quite good in terms of length and execution, with a brief explanation of one feature. But i think we shouldn't ignore the size of the user base for both programs, which is probably one of the reasons why there are more videos for Affinity. Many YouTube tutorials are also created with the intention of making a few bucks, which only makes sense with a sufficiently large audience. One shouldn't underestimate the work that a tutorial, a YouTube video, requires. I also think that potential VS users should watch Illustrator videos instead, as many things work similarly. Not knowing Illustrator, because I didn't like it (this was before the subscription), was my biggest hurdle when getting started. I came from Corel Draw. So, in my opinion, VectorStyler is more for people who already have some advanced knowledge of creating vector graphics. Beginners can also easily be referred to the tutorial section here in the forum, where they can get a good overview of the options and how to use them.

@gotanidea said in Scale Strokes and Effects: The Transformed Stroke option in Transform panel menu, Object Options and Document Setup is not the same as Adobe Illustrator's Scale Strokes & Effects feature. Yes, these are different. I will try to implement a similar transforming mode. The problem is that it might conflict with existing features. I moved this feature up the the backlog.

@VectorStyler . Got it thank you works very well.. did exactly what I hoped it would do

@Boldline , @Dazmondo I just like to tell that i found a way to get a Halftone Line like Result in VS. Edited: Part 4 is now online an will be found here ...a kind of halftone Lines, Part 4 Here a Example

@b77 said in Remove selection info from the toolbar please - can be seen in the status bar: (Btw, do you need to use the 125% UI scaling with that low screen resolution? Is it something commonly done on Windows?). I tried the 100% but than it's unreadable on my 14 inch screen. And yes with smaller screens Windows recommends even greater UI scaling.

@VectorStyler as I found it easier to define a symbol through the Symbol panel, I understand why I could rarely get the expected results... a somewhat tricky bug

@Boldline said in Exporting Final Art from VS for others including non-VS users: @Subpath Awesome! I'll have to play around with it. I think I found the website https://concepts.app/en/ Yes, that is the Website. Have to say that the Windows Version is a bit limited, no Watercolor Brush and a few other things i dont remember. But has the Airbrush and the Pencil. You could try the free Demo. I own the iPad Version. Also if you deciced to buy the App, look carefully it seems subscription based. But there is also an Non-subscription version (i own this Version). I have this: Essentials 14,99 € (the non Subcription Version) PDF-Essentials 4,99 € ( for PDF Export ) Shape Library 1,99 € ( Kind of Clipboard/Asset Browser )

@vectoradmin Here is a video of pen tool drawing two curve. First Curve: First node is simple click and second node is drag Second Curve: First node is drag and second node is click Should not those be same(mirror)?. If I create this in other program the two curve are same(mirror). As I already discussed about first node created in VS with pen tool in this thread. What would you say about this? I would really want to know.

@VectorStyler I don't quite understand. It's all about moving an object(s) from one layer to another, right? As long as it is a possibility, that is important. If there is an option to disable the feature and what should be the default? I would say default on, option off.

@Pat said in Paragraph style - can't be changed through the panel: when I create a new style and the cursor remains on the modified text from which I created it, this specific new style is never selected in the styles panel but always the previous style with the "+" sign This is by design. Creating a style (in general) from a selection does not automatically apply that style.

@Subpath Yes, indeed. If I look rapidly the two branches of the V one after the other for example, I've the feeling they are not in the same plane. But for many isometric letters and basic shapes, I don't have any issue.

@b77 If that approach were taken, I would also suggest adding an option to mimic the Affinity products, which use proportional scaling by default for text and images but not for shapes.

@ash-f This issue is still an open bug. Will try to fix as soon as possible.

@VectorStyler said in Little indicator Sign "°" for Path Sketch Tool to know that a Shape is closed: @Subpath There are plenty of things to do for 1.2 already, lets return to this later. No Problem, take your time

@Ingolf Looks like a really usefull List. I guess that List is for UI-Design.
