Affinity Designer reveals powerful new upgrade
Award-winning Affinity Designer, the professional vector design software for Mac, has unveiled the powerful new features which will be central to its next update.
Affinity Designer developer Serif (Europe) Ltd has today released a ‘sneak peek’ video demonstrating the changes. It can be viewed here http://vimeo.com/169816724
Version 1.5 introduces the Constraints feature - the ability to control the position or size of an object relative to its container, making it possible to create reusable elements which perform in a pseudo-responsive fashion.
Serif Managing Director Ashley Hewson says: “This is something we think is pretty unique to Affinity Designer. We’re super-excited to get it out to users.”
Meanwhile the Symbols feature will allow users to have multiple instances of the same object, where editing one object will edit them all simultaneously.
Ashley Hewson adds: “These fast, powerful updates will be particularly useful for people working on user interface design and website mock-ups.”
Version 1.5 of Affinity Designer – winner of an Apple Design Award in 2015 – will be released in beta later this month, with the full version available for download through the App Store in August. There will be no charge for existing Affinity Designer owners.
The new features will also be included in the forthcoming beta version of Affinity Designer for Windows, also due before the end of June.
