We need something like Inkscape, but the current state simply doesn't cut it for me, sorry. For example Blender or Gimp are great and improved massively over the years. Everything just works, the UI is well thought out and it's snappy. Bought Affinity Designer this week and immediately fell in love. Unfortunately I don't have enough time to contribute, sorry. And for some reason you can't even disable anti-aliased edges and it cuts of filters. You need to fallback to the commandline to export all layers or groups for example. The exporting side could use some love too. Oh and there's also the random crash now and then. And they add even more lag to everything. Path effects and filters are cool, but the UI feels. And when you get further with your project, the input lag gets out of hand. But everything feels so strange and awkward to use. I don't want to rain on your parade, but to be honest, it was a miserable experience.ĭon't get me wrong: Inkscape is huge, it's quite an achievement and I'm glad we got an open source vector app. A few days ago I tried 1.1.1 after a long absence on windows.
