Affinity Designer 2 is the fastest, most user-friendly and accurate vector graphic design software on the market today. Built from the ground up over five years, all the features, tools, panels, and settings of this app are designed with creative professionals in mind. As a result of continuous innovation and improvement, a revolutionary application has been created that will change the way you approach your workflow.
Among the best features are:
• The best tool for creating eye-catching illustrations
As always, Affinity Designer, used by professionals around the world as an indispensable tool for working with vector illustrations, sets the bar for professional creative applications. Accurate curves, vibrant colors and superior performance deliver stunning results in every application without exception.
• Dazzling colors
Since color is the central component of composition, Affinity Designer has the widest color range. With support for all major formats, ICC profiles and the latest wide color gamut screens, you can be sure your projects will look their best. And because the delicate, smooth gradients are always dynamically updated on the page, the possibilities for user control are endless.
• Accuracy when creating curves
When creating curves, it is essential to use the professional high-precision Pen tool, and in combination with intuitive modifiers, this tool will become the key to your work. The ability to switch to the Node Tool or the Angle Tool in dynamic mode lets you reshape, fit, and adjust objects to perfection.
• Flawless Geometry
It’s hard to describe the joy you’ll experience while working with fully customizable dynamic shapes in Affinity Designer. Not only are they incredibly adaptive, but they now also have automatic snap points to ensure geometric accuracy in everything you do.
• Hand stabilization
Stunning new features like Rope and Window gimbal modes let you create smoother, more precise curves than you’ve ever dreamed of, all with the freeform Pencil and brush tools.
• Non-Destructive Operations
Of course, you can combine shapes using boolean operations, but can you do it in a non-destructive way so that you can still move and edit composite components? Thus, you have access to a number of important functions that you will not find in other applications.
• Text that makes an impression
Whether you’re working with artistic heading text or text boxes in boxes after headings, you can add complex styles and ligatures, and you have full access to options for spacing, kerning, letter spacing, and more.
You can convert text to outlines at any time to take full control of how you create exquisite custom typography to give text more value.
• Harmonious unity of opportunities for working with vector and pixel graphics
One of the most important aspects of Affinity Designer is the ability to instantly switch to working with pixels. Paint with a bitmap brush to add textures, apply masks, make pixelated selections, and even add layers of non-destructive adjustments. All without having to close the app.
• Accuracy is the basis
If you strive for perfection, then in the world of vector graphics, this means the ability to create 100% accurate compositions in all cases without exception. The Affinity Designer app gives you the confidence and freedom to create while completely eliminating the possibility of error.
• Scale up to over one million percent
Yes, you read right. The power that lies in this application is amazing. Yes, that means incredible speed, real-time overlay adjustments, and ultra-smooth panning. But all of these benefits are most evident during scaling. Zoom in a little more and keep working!
• Advanced Meshing Options
The possibilities for creating meshes are almost endless. Whether it’s a standard grid template or full perspective with multiple planes, you have full access to settings for spacing, cells, gaps, angles and more.
• Precise guides and snapping
Positioning images or composition elements has never been easier with fully flexible guides and snapping options. You decide what and what you want to bind to, and at the same time guides and measurements are displayed on the screen – when moving or transforming objects, all changes occur in real time.
• Composite View and Outline View
With a simple keystroke, you can view your composition in wireframe view or even composite view if you prefer. This is the most efficient way to view all elements on all project layers. In addition, this mode takes the process of choosing the right target to a whole new level of efficiency in all cases without exception.
• Completely optimized for UI design, websites and applications
If you specialize in designing eye-catching on-screen interfaces, then Affinity Designer has an amazing set of features designed to do just that. When working on user interface design, interaction interface or web layout projects, there is nothing better than knowing that you have a fully functional professional application that includes a set of graphic design tools.
• Pixel view in dynamic mode
The perfection of pixel design is ensured by the ability to view the work in pixel mode. This feature allows you to view vector images in standard and Retina resolution, and get a real idea of how each element of the composition will look after export.
• Dynamic symbols
Symbols allow you to include an unlimited number of instances of the same base object in the current project. When editing one object, others instantly change. You can easily create multiple variants of symbols with a range of distinct attributes, or even create symbols within symbols, opening the door to truly innovative workflow acceleration techniques.
• Adaptive design
In Affinity Designer, there are no restrictions on setting the absolute positions and sizes of objects – you can set the dependence of these attributes on the canvas or container in which they are located. This means that you can work in responsive design mode, which means that elements move and scale automatically depending on the size of the device.
• Unlimited artboards
Place screens, pages, menus, and other elements in one project on an unlimited number of artboards. You don’t have to worry about workflow efficiency thanks to the most advanced memory management system, so no matter how big and complex the project is, the performance of the program will never be compromised.
• Professional-quality images when printing, displaying, or collaborating
At the heart of Affinity Designer’s server technology is advanced file support. Support for all major image and vector file types is included, including full support for layered PSD files, so you can output documents directly for printing, display in a web browser, or transfer to other applications.
• CMYK and spot colors for professional printing
Pantone color support, CMYK pass-through, and ICC color management are just some of the app’s features. You can also open, edit, and output PDF/X files, set print overprint controls, use spot colors, and add bleeds, trim marks, and crop marks to create print-ready documents.
• Separation operations when creating user interface design, web design and game design
Any number of objects, artboards, icons, buttons, logos, layers (or just any drawable areas in your project) can be exported with a single click in any resolution and file format you require. You can even specify different folder locations for different items in the same document, and optionally automatically generate Xcode and Spine JSON assets from your comps.
