Well, for a start, you can't set a stroke width less than 0.1mm, which may sound like a useless edge-case, but makes it useless as a single-point tool for designs to be sent to Lasers or CNC machines that run off a print driver.

Also, the workflow's quite clunky.

Still, I've bought it and Photo, just because I want them to one day better Illustrator and Photoshop.

- ed Sorry - 'less than 0.1pt', not 0.1mm. Samediff ultimately.




I agree. It depends on what you do with the program as to how it compares to Illustrator. From a prepress perspective where I would use it to rip apart and fix graphic files so they print properly, Affinity Designer has a long way to go. For designing it's not too bad and slowly catching up. It is also the only one I have found so far that supports Pantone....
