Thank you.

@Boldline AI also has this but I think the default there is Winding. Once the winding fill mode is set for a shape (Appearance panel, or Object -> Content -> Winding Fill), the new shapes will be drawn with it. I think there could be a preferences for having it on by default.

@Boldline There is an option: Prferences -> Editing Options -> Adjust Node Removal Curvature, that will not approximate the original curve when removing a node.

@Boldline Can be implemented, added to the backlog. Attached the file here: gradientidea1.vstyler

@Boldline Added this to the backlog.

@Boldline When creating new presets, these are added to the root of the group (specific to the preset type). The Panels -> Presets -> Presets panel, or the Styles -> Preset Manager view can be used to place these into folders, or to create new folders.

Thank you.

@Boldline This can be replicated, added it to the backlog.

@Boldline If I understand correctly, I think you need to enable 'Show Nodes of Selected Shapes' in Preferences > Editing Options.

@Subpath2 Thanks!

Hi @Boldline The Reason while you can not import Affinity Designer Brushes may also be , that only one Brush in Affinity Designer is a real Vector Brush. The others are Bitmaps along a Vector Path.

@vectoradmin i just sent you the file and an explanation. Basically the left side of the sunglasses were initially a copy and flip of the right side. So everything on the left side will be in reverse I assume - based on other discussions in the forum about that. Maybe the solution here is I need to flip the path direction?

@Boldline @b77 added to the backlog!

@vectoradmin I'm using only mouse now. In Canvas&Artboard / Styles panel both methods are working - two clicks & Return key. Non of them work in Layers panel. https://recordit.co/nxTCRjltyt

@KF Thanks for the image. I tested it, and with anti aliasing turned off (View -> Subpixel -> None) here is what I get: [image: 1632043942031-trace2-resized.png] The anti-aliasing artifact is in the backlog (list of things to fix), and I will try to find a solution for that.

@vectoradmin Thank you that's brilliant. @Boldline Thank you, that's a great tip.

@encart For this, you must align to a key object, and specify the key object by clicking: steps from the video: https://recordit.co/R83pZ7gBOA select the objects select key object mode (second in the left group at the panel bottom). click on the key object, in this case object 3 on your picture. click the alignment buttons.

@Boldline There is no eyedropper tool for character style, but the Copy / Paste Character Style in the Edit -> Attributes menu should help with this. For other attributes (like fill, outline, etc) the eyedropper tool should work.

@vectoradmin Wow! I love it! I was not even thinking about an eraser options panel pop up - I love the control and settings it has. thank you
