Spiral Tool (Affinity Designer)

[@otiwills2912]

When that day comes when Affinity becomes the industry standard, let it be known that I believed in Affinity from day one. Many people complain about what tools are missing without seeing that Affinity is not here to recreate the past but to create the future with better tools and modern ways of making designs. DON’T WORRY YOUR TOOLS WILL COME BUT EVEN BETTER!

This is the clearest and most informative Infinity video I have seen yet. Please produce more just like this.

I absolutely love to see Affinity coming out with these smaller but mighty updates!

[@winstonsmith3703]

Oh my god yes!!!! Finally!!! Im so Happy now!!!

[@budaloops]

At first I was like, oh. it's just a spiral tool. Wonder when the next update will roll out. But as you got into it my eyes opened wide. So inspired to create with this!

[@TechnicallyTrent]

Awesome new feature!

[@TheAjayTyler]

I am unreasonably excited about this new tool 😆 A few months back, I was trying to make a spiral by hand, and it turned out rough. These options are great! Can't wait to play around with it!

[@SurfinPog]

Love the tip about using vector brushes to transform the look of spirals! Super cool!!

[@TrendyWarehouseshop]

Awesome ..please can we have the spray can tool just like Inkscape 😊❣️❣️❣️❣️

Affinity: Cada vez mejor! 💪

[@graftedworks]

I have needed this! Awesome new tool, Serif team. Thank you!

[@chrissy8764]

Amazing! Designer is so powerful.

[@POPDELUSION]

We need gradient mesh already!! Love the spiral tool

[@MonkeyDash2009]

An excellent overview.

[@Roboto-chan_1402]

I never really played around with the spiral tool in Inkscape (and I wonder if Inkscape has the same or similar settings hidden in its menu or path effects). Mainly because I have yet to find a tutorial that would explain features and what it could be used for. Thank you for showing us good examples of how this tool could come into handy. Might have to play around with it in both AD and Inkscape 😊

[@kristiaanverberne8419]

Thank you for this great tutorial which is very clear and shows exactly what is needed to use the spiral too. I have one question; how did you create the black LP? I assume the groves are also done with the spiral tool? Keep up the great work!

[@schockschwerenot]

❤❤❤ awesome feature

[@Muthukaviyarasan]

We want shape blending tool

[@winstonsmith3703]

What would that do?

[@pixelfungaming]

Really handy

[@jasne2992]

Hi is there a way to change the spiral settings after putting text on it? Cant find it, but would be great!

[@sharynwillis8920]

Great tutorial. I am having trouble though. When I increase the amount of spiral they all go into the same box and I can't increase or decrease the gap between them

[@michaeldzaman5940]

??? not seeing this in my copy of affinity designer 2. where and how do I see the triangle on the side bar?!!!

[@colemyst]

THANK YOU!

[@temartins]

The best!

[@dakotakot5465]

I use Affinity Designer 2 on iPad and I do not see Spiral Tool

[@abejasmiel]

Hi, Did you update? I can see it at the end of tool shape

[@dakotakot5465]

​@@abejasmiel thank you… after updating I can see the tool

[@selcuk.yilmaz]

Thank you

[@Mrflippyfloop]

Very cool.

[@simondobbs4480]

I don't see the spiral tool in my affinity designer for Mac.

[@keithwarnes2784]

In 2.3 update just released

[@simondobbs4480]

Yes- thanks. Now I have it. @@keithwarnes2784

[@agungwidinugroho554]

Is this new tool?

[@abejasmiel]

Yes, It´s in the new update 2.3

[@Muthukaviyarasan]

😃👍🙋🏻‍♂️

[@yuli3873]

Thanks for another update! As a sidenote, I'd use a DeEsser or some EQ for the audio next time, there's too much sibilance.

[@dankrungthep4893]

Nice. Now please give us vector brushes. And until then, please stop calling pixel brushes "vector brushes". It's not a vector brush when it's a bitmap. Please. Please.
