    After watching this video I realize the biggest mistake I've made is not studying enough BrownBear content

      I'm glad you found the video helpful. Thank you for the kind words. There's a whole bunch of videos for you to study and many more to come 👍🏽

    3 of them I didn't know. I like what @rashaadsallie referred to about the panel snapping at 1:23. I hate scrolling the swatches and characters panels in the sidebar. So tedious for me! Even though it will make my workspace smaller, I'm going to try having the double sidebar with swatches and characters panels in the new sidebar. The reduced workspace will probably work and it'll be worth it to see all of the swatches and character controls.
    Is there any reason you wouldn't want to use an artboard? Why not always start with an artboard? I think you said that you do. I don't know why there's the ability to not start with one. Your use of them is outstanding. Thanks for your tips!

    I never even thought about using art boards that way. I always made new ones.

      Definitely check out the artboard video too. You may find some more great info in that 👍🏽

    I confess. I am guilty of doing, or not doing 90% of what this video addresses. I didn't even know I could customize my tool bars. Thank You B.B.P.!

    Thanks so much for the disable Alt rotating canvas. i had it turned off on version1 and had forgotten I could turn it off, Never have had not want to use if but REALLY annoying when I accidentally did/ Can't seem why undo wouldn't reset it but this is better,

      Check out this forum post - forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/139587-icon-pack/
      If I remember right I followed these sites and downloaded everything I liked the look of. The game ones are most likely in there

    @BrownBear - In Mistake number 2 you snapped the colour panel to the left of the existing panel. How did you do that because in no version of Affinity Designer can this be done. Please share how you accomplished this at 1.23

    • @BrownBearProductions
      @BrownBearProductions  ปีที่แล้ว

      You just grab the panel and hover it over next to the current panel. Once it shows the blue outline let go and it should snap in place

      @@BrownBearProductions I'm sorry bro but this cannot be done in Affinity Designer 2 - Affinity only allow for one panel per side and floating panels. Unless there is another way its impossible. May people have asked AF to implement this like Adobe but they refused to do so. I am still not sure how only you accomplished this. Thanks for the reply.

      I think this video was from Version 1 so unless they removed the ability in version 2 or it's only on the windows version (since I've not used the Mac version)
