You can't select objects on the canvas by clicking on them, if they're surrounded by another object (like a rectangle or a frame). Designer treats all objects as filled, so if you've drawn a frame or outline or an object with a hole in it, you can't select objects within that hole directly. You have to laboriously iterate through all objects in a list until you get to the one you want. This is an extremely common situation, which cripples the entire product. Very surprising and unfortunate defect. See More
For those working in mixed environments that aren't 100% MacOS, you'll find devoting yourself to Sketch.app brings with it...pain. If this fits the bill for what you need feature-wise and you're in a mixed OS environment, it's a very capable replacement for Sketch.app. Note that it doesn't have all the same features, but then again it doesn't need all the same features. Short of organization differences inside the document you're working on, there shouldn't be anything you can't do with Affinity Designer that you could have with Sketch. See More
In the era of "retina" displays, 4k UHD, 5k, and even 8k, Scalar Vector Graphics - independent vector images that can scale to any resolution without any display quality loss - are more important now than ever. And this tool is quite capable of rendering true SVG output suitable for consumption at any display resolution (not a big bunch of rasterized bits in the document, actual paths, points, etc.). See More
Unlike some design tools, Affinity Designer isn't trying to be all things to all people. It's focused on its main area of expertise: vector graphics. That's not to say you can't use a raster image (think a photo in *.jpeg format for example), but it's not built to do much with that other than using it somewhere amidst the layers and that's about it. See More
These are companion apps & switching between them is built in - Photo is a very powerful raster tool with a feature set close/better to Photoshop, it will also use some Photoshop plugins. This allows you to add-on powerful raster capabilities if you want them - put doesn't force you to. See More
myBalsamiq has been built with teams in mind and has a variety of featured to support collaborating on the mockups: Notifications - Real-time notifications to enable you to keep track of team member actions Revision Control - All mockups have a revision history to enable reverting to previous versions and keeping track of design decisions. Skype Integration - Easy to use Skype integration to host design reviews. Access Control - Access controls allow sharing projects with team members as well as allowing external reviewers to leave comments on the designs. See More

The brushes on Clip Studio feel natural and smooth. Especially love the Real Pencil and G-Pen. There are also an enormous selection of brushes: you can use those posted daily on the asset store, and you can also use ANY photoshop brush. You can also extensively customize any brush. Clip Studio has a very powerful brush engine. See More
Clip Studio Paint is easy to work with because of its familiar feel and customizable interface. You can also download the most popular interface layouts designed by others in the community and use them yourself with just a few clicks, eliminating the need to customize it yourself from scratch. See More
Clip Studio Paint lets you paint like you normally do, even using vectors. Rather than having vector brushes, Clip Studio lets you use ANY available brush on a vector layer. This allows for a normal workflow, while still providing scalable images and complex line-editing after drawing in a way that apps like Adobe Illustrator and the like are unable to match. See More
Clip Studio Paint offers some very cool AI technology that does everything from coloring your paintings, to auto coloring animations, to intuitively closing gaps for you. You can also record your OWN sets of frequently-repeated actions into an auto-action so you can perform sets of actions you have to perform over and over again in seconds at the click of a button. See More
Clip Studio Paint comes with an asset store which contains an enormous collection of both free and paid materials of all kinds (brushes, 3D objects, backgrounds, effects, UI layouts, image material, etc.) that are updated every single day by a huge user base all over the world. It makes it easy to favorite and download material, which you can browse by popularity, newness, or search for and download straight into Clip Studio with very little effort. See More
Since Clip Studio is optimized for illustration, it provides many tools to make this more efficient. For example, lineart layers (or entire folders) can be set as a reference layer for the bucket tool to reference, allowing you to fill in flat colors in literal seconds, without needing to manually color within the lines OR draw a selection with a selection tool. See More
Clip Studio Paint is a one-time purchase, making it very affordable compared to subscription-based alternatives. The cheaper Pro version does almost everything an illustrator could want. The more expensive Ex version is generally only needed for those interested in page management for publishing books (e.g. comics, manga, artbooks) or animation. See More
Unlike many other programs, which offer only dedicated eraser tools, Clip Stuio ALSO offers the ability to paint using a transparent color, essentially transforming ANY brush tool into an eraser tool which maintains the texture, edge, weight and pressure sensitivity, and other useful and customized features of your brush when erasing. This is useful both for not needing to switch tools as well as not needing to re-paint erased areas. See More
Photoshop is used by professionals everywhere in a wide variety of fields including photography, graphic design and digital art. It is the de facto standard for image manipulation. If you've seen a magazine ad featuring a model, you've probably seen the effects of Photoshop. You won't be alone when using Photoshop. See More
While you can relatively quickly learn how to perform a few basic image editing tasks, understanding Photoshop's ins and outs can be difficult. It's partially due to the sheer amount of functionality that Photoshop packs (and understanding that some of the advanced functionality can take a while to understand on its own), and partially due to it being aimed at professionals with little hand-holding for novice users. See More
With Adobes adaptation of the "subscription world" PhotoShop too is available as subscription software only. This means it will never become yours. And if you stop paying, you won't have any PhotoShop any more. Whether you are OK with that or not, it also means that PhotoShop for a large part becomes software for those "who can afford it". Or "push cost to others". Like customers of professionals. Which is also a way to become an "industry standard". See More
Photoshop is the most fully featured image editing software available today allowing you to perform highly advanced image manipulation. It has tools for RAW image adjustments, lens correction, retouching, image stitching, HDR, fixing framing. It supports most professional color modes and file formats. It includes extensive lists of filters, styles, effects, fonts as well as tools for painting, sketching and typography work. It understands both raster and vector graphics. It even includes tools for video editing, working with 3D objects and support for 3D printing. See More
In 2014 Quasado released Gravit.io having dual licensing: GNU GPLv3+ or a commercial license. This effectively made Gravit.io opensource, when they transitioned to "Gravit designer" they essentially dropped GPLv3+ license. You can still get the GPLv3+ licensed version of Gravit.io here: https://github.com/OliBridgman/gravit You can read the GPLv3+ licensing here: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html See More
Tiled view that shows your image tiled in the editor, and permits you to edit it as you are seeing it tiled. If the brush passes out of your texture, it will just automatically wrap back the painting to the other side of the original texture, while permitting you to paint and see the results on any of the tiled "clones" (the shortcut key to activate this is w by default).
