Chapter 6: Tools – Designer Persona
Welcome to the sixth chapter of Up and Running with Affinity Designer.
Tools are the heart of Affinity Designer. Here, you'll find the design tools, shape tools, text tools, selection tools, retouch tools, and export tools. We'll cover all of these in the next two chapters and lay the groundwork for you to move forward and discover the possibilities Affinity Designer has to offer.
The tools discussed in this chapter pertain to the vector tools in the Designer Persona.
In this chapter, we'll cover the following topics:
- Designer Persona tools
- Shape tools
- Text tools
- The Color Picker tool
- The View tool
- The Zoom tool
Note
Rather than listing every single option that is available for each tool, which might indeed double the thickness of this book, I am going to concentrate on the options most likely to benefit us in getting up to speed with Affinity Designer. I encourage you to visit the Help System...
