Thanks for updating the programs to V2. I do like being able to expand strokes. Now if we could just apply filters to strokes and lines I would be in love with this. I was wanting to apply a ZIG ZAG to multiple single lines but I can not do that currently.
hello affinity! unrelated question but i wanna ask how do you make nodes snap when mesh warping/ make mesh nodes snap just like you would with the curves node tool
Same. I've found that if I draw with a variable width brush, then when I do expand stroke it never converts it completely accurately :( (on both iPad and MacBook Pro)
I've been trying to get the Expand Stroke followed by Add to create a single object technique to work but instead of combining the layers disappear, poof, gone. What would account for this?
Curves drawn with the brush tool do not appear to be expandable, only the most rudimentary plane strokes are expandable. Kinda bummer if that's by design.
Thank you for this video! I have a Problem: I had a Curve and I expanded the stroke and found it useful. So I decided to save the file. But a few days and many operations later, I wished to make it undo. Unfortunatelly the undo Funktion doesn‘t help me anymore. Is there a chance, to go the opposite way, back to a simple curve? It would help me a lot Savigny a ton of time.
When you expand a stroke it’s a destructive action and you’re unable to turn it back into a curve. I suggest making a copy of your work (while it’s still curves) that way you’ll have a copy if you need to adjust it later on. I hope this helps!
Additional to Dylan Gosvener absolutely correct answer, I may add that you can save the undo history with the file (enable it in the file menu). In that case you could undo back until you get the original curve (ctrl+Z or history panel). At that point you have lost all work done after it of course, but you could copy the original curve and then redo back to the current state of the document and paste the curve in. This approach probably does not help you now, as you would have needed to enable "save history with file" before closing the document, but maybe it helps next time.

You saved me at work haha thanks

Nice, but I have similar scenario and Expand stroke doesn't work correctly. A have some deformations of the object there.

i had the simiral issue when i try to expand, it's just did nothing

@@discipledylan I was afraid of that. Thank you very much for the quick reply! 🙏🏻
