Hopefully the Affinity stuff will be better. The Serif Plus line of products never got beyond that level of quality. And I agree that Affinity software is quirky and there are lots of little things that don't do what they should. And it's not realistic to think that a 50 dollar program would be the one to challenge Photoshop. Photoshop is apparently an impossible act to follow. For me not at this time.ĭon't feel guilty about it. For each function you have to look in some tutorials. It is as if you want to offer 1 million functions, but you can not manage to organize them. Pallettes organizing works only in a part. Move from one document to another? It does not work. Plugins do not run cleanly or are not supported. I'm sorry but I'm going back to Photoshop. Regarding your Wacom problem, my intuos 3 is as responsive as in Ps, maybe check your driver version or such, there is other posts on this subject. We all need to be patient regarding development of such product, Photoshop didn't make it in a few month. If they listen and enhance AP, it definitely have the potential to become a landmark in the industry. This is such sort of efficiency/adaptation that really lack into AP, and where developers really need to listen feedback from professionals using such tools all day long.
It also have lot of customization option allowing lot of different use of the product, according to each preferences. Tons of small things everywhere, shortcuts with shift/ctrl/alt combinations and contextual menus everywhere allow us to be very fast and effective with very rarely going into menus. Not a hazard it is still a standard without real competition. We have achieve such maturity with Photoshop efficiency over decades that it's really hard to beat. I think the Affinity team really need to listen professionals trying to get into the product. I agree some stuff should be rearrange (assistant options itself should be in preferences, layer options in menus not being in contextual menu on layer panel is a bummer, etc).
Settings not being saved, missing very basic features can make it feel like an unfinished product. Lack tons of small things here and there to be effective. Now yes, it really needs to mature in nearly all areas regarding flexibility and workflow efficiency in production. This alone is ever a success, that no other have. Keep in minds it is a very new product that is compared to a 20years old standard and mature software.
