Man I can't wait until Serif makes the lock layer actually lock the layer...its gonna be a game changer.
The "Spiral Tool" is definitely a useful major addition to Affinity Designer. I got to play with it during beta testing. But for what I do, getting some lingering bugs (involving bleeds on artboards) sorted out was a bigger improvement. I was happy to see artboard bleeds working as expected when I received v2.3 BETA RC-2 on 28-29 November. I was pleasantly surprised when the finished update was released today.
Thank you for the video! Keep making this on every affinity updates ❤
Good explanation about the new features. Subscribed!
I really wish they would do a vector trace option. It would be great if they'd do that and have it match Illustrator or Vector Magic inside Designer.
Thankyou - nice and brief
Great, but when i try the move, I have the same settings as your, but mine just move back. No up or down
Will you be adding the ability to add ribs and measurements to a drawing?
I would love image trace so I can put my notepad doodles into Affinity
I wonder if the ALT key option on the contour tool is finally fixed in this update. Edit- Just checked and no....it's still broken. I think its been over a year since Affinity staff acknowledged and passed it on to the devs.
Any tips for ipad?
at 3:39 you missed a quick way to turn off the pixel grid right there on the drop down menu
Are they considering to add tracing feature in designer?

No most likely not until future versions come out (affinity designer 3.0) they are still working on getting more basic functions over before a fancy extension like auto trace is introduced... Either way as artists or professionals the trace tool even in programs like Adobe give useless results. Try Inkscape if you want to see what I mean, it's more of a posterize effect than trace
Can Designer export to a PDF X-1a?
Pixel grid, great for pixel art. Too bad, they will never add animation to their apps, hopefully they add it in the future, so I can drop Aseprite right away, lol.

Aesprite is sensational for pixel art though? What makes you so unhappy with aesprite to want to work in affinity?

@@AyyyyyyyyyLmao Never said Aseprite was a bad app. But you can create way better looking pixel art stuff with Affinity.
the updates are completely useless can't export some PDFs since 2.2
