Layer States (Affinity Designer)

[@giovannyarce]

Amazing, this is a great example why having organized layers and naming conventions is a good practice. Outstanding feature, keep it up the great work guys!

[@graftedworks]

Awesome!! Can't even remember how many times I've needed this. Well done, Serif!

[@UliTroyo]

This is super useful! I’ve needed this feature for variations.

[@ashishtiwari5433]

This is awesome! A very pleasant addition.

[@jackrabbitron]

This feature is really useful, and I didn't even know about it. Thanks!

Wonderful addition, I work with different languages so this could be really useful. Currently I use different artboards for different languages. I will change to this method if it works well with the Export Persona. Is there are a way to implement this in the Export Persona so I don't need to go back in and change Captured States? Thanks

[@eoinfitzpatrick5478]

Nice one. How would I apply a query state based on layer effects that have been applied?

[@v4n63]

how does undo and redo work with stages? can I treat stages like a commit in git and do changes and if I don't like it go back to the stage and it ignores everything I changed?

[@MIHAO]

super good!

Great feature! Now we only need live vector filters/effects, blend tool and true vector pattern fills at the very least :)

[@Ziplock9000]

Good stuff.

On your page listing Affinity Designer tutorials, you list this video as (NEW 28/03/24) -- Please don't be lazy resulting in ambiguity and confusion - always list your dates with a 3-letter month and a 4-digit year. This will remove all ambiguity, and it's only 3 additional keystrokes. Remember, people in different parts of the world designate dates in a different order than you do.

I hope the States can be available on iPad.

Im using trial affinity designer, and I just update to new version (2.4.0). When I selected Layer name checkbox and type “Name…” and check Regular Expression I have a Crash Software…

I'd prefer some NODE system instead of those lists of layers of menus...

No recomiendo esta app. Ya estoy esperando 15 minutos para que exporte de Affinity a Photoshop una imagen de 3x2 metros. De paso, me fue molestoso cuando comencé a editar dicha imagen, y eso que he pagado la suscripción.

[@oscar.mendoza]

I do not recommend this application. I'm already waiting 15 minutes for a 3x2 meter image to be exported from Affinity to Photoshop. By the way, it was annoying when I started editing said image, even though I paid for the subscription. It seems that you are having a problem editing and exporting somewhat heavy images.

[@PeaceIntheValley]

You must not be using Affinity. You don't export from Affinity to Photoshop. There is no button for that. There is also no subscription. I export to PDF much larger than that and it works just fine. It can be slow or fast - it depends how you design and what links you have.
