For some people it's not there by default. You have to manually add it. Go to the View menu, select Customise Tools. Drag the Flood Vector Fill Tool from the pop-up menu into the Tools panel
It's a great tool, well thought out and useful! I would really like to see a demo showing how to use it to bitmap fill fashion or home decor items. This would be a great help for surface pattern designers.
@Spencer U I'm the same exact same waiting for someone to reply to us in this lonely corner in the deep vast internet, will any body save us????? Probably not it is the internet
I'm on Windows and Vector Flood Fill icon was not visible by default. I had to go to View -> Customize Tools and then drag the icon to my Tools. @hellssurprise9338
Awesom! I learned a lot. There are so many things in Affinity which I unfortunately stilt don't know. And often, it has given me a hard time - just because, I'm not deep enough in the software...
Bitmap fills are well implemented but what we really want is VECTOR pattern fills along with true vector brushes! Also, how to tell if I've scaled the bitmap fill over 100% and start losing detail? Seems no obvious way to tell that.
Great feature. I really wish you folks would add the "Placement Policy Linked" option for APhoto to Designer, but with a dynamic link so that if I update an Aphoto file it would update automatically in Designer where it is placed as a linked file. Thanks
Unfortunately, transferring a JPG file from the assets to the colour field does not work at all. I do everything exactly as in the video, but the result is always a white area ... Can someone help me, please Update: after reinstallation it works now
@@MWRtelevision What you consider peanuts is not necessarily what others do. Being cheaper than the expensive packages that offer more functionality does not make it cheap itself. It just makes it cheap-er. Plus many don't even use all of the package, but only use 1 or 2 of the suite. So it would be idiotic to buy something that wont even be used. Affinity knew this when V2.0 first released, so they seen the logic back then.
@@Ziplock9000 I would still argue that £67 incredibly cheap for a piece of pro level software you can keep - I'm not sure how old you are and if you've grown up in the era of free or £1.99 mobile apps, but I remember that a single Adobe app used to be about £500 and MS Office was similar. Is AD perfect? no. Does it lack some basic stuff? yes. But it's worth the money, imo. and it's worth paying the £67 to ensure Serif can keep developing it and we have some competition. I know everybody wants stuff for free/cheap, but that's not how we get good software and tools.
Amazing - congratulations Affinity Designer
i can't find the vector flood tool in my updated version... why?
me too, I don't find the tool. I'm 2.1

Very awesome stuff. But where do you get all of those nifty textures?
Is there a library (or a persona) for floor plan artwork? I mean the window and door openings, and such
Great, thanks for this powerful method!
crazy...cuz i updated and i do not have the vector flood tool in the side panel
@Spencer U I'm the same exact same

For windows, use R to toggle this, I just learned this today after weeks of wondering what these videos were on about 😅

what if the nodes of lines arent connected but appear connected?
Are the assets you are using avaliable?
... same question to me ;-)
v2.1 updates are 💙💜🧡. Thanks Affinity.

Just for Mac and windows versions?
Muito rápido e prático, parabéns pessoal.

very useful tool thanks a lot :)
This is excellent!

I‘d like the assets import to be available for iPad

Does this work on affinity 1.1?
Only 2.1, it's a recently added feature
这个功能太厉害了！！
Need a 3d tool like in Adobe ai
Veector fill in V2.2.
OMG。。。
🤟
Please make v2.x a discounted upgrade from v1.x specifically for AD and not just the entire suite and then I'm sold.
The suite costs peanuts anyway compared to anything with similar functionality. It’s a bargain, it really is.
