    I would love if Gimp, Scribus, Krita, and Inkscape worked together on a pixel/vector/publishing backend with respective Qt and GTK frontends. Basically just copy Affinity with icons representing the different workspaces.

    Hey, sorry about the late reply. In order to get the shape builder tool to work correctly on a circle/ellipse, you first have to turn the circle into a path, then go to the Node Tool, select all of the circle's nodes, and click the "Make selected nodes symmetric" button in the controls bar. I'll make a video about it soon.

    In 1.3, it now ungroups the letters and combines them into a single path. To separate the letters, you can use either the Split Path or the Break Apart path operation.

    I wasn't aware of this at the time, but in order to be able to use the Corners LPE on a shape created with any of the shape tools, you first have to turn it into a path by selecting it and going to Path -> Object to Path. If you then add the Corners LPE to it, it should let you round multiple corners at once.
