This was amazingly useful. Honestly, the Clip to Canvas info might be my favorite part. Question: is an art artboard your designing canvas? What does it mean to define an artboard? I'm sure that's a ridiculous question, but I'm still a total noob . Thanks!

Hi @michelefrost734, that's definitely a good question!
An artboard is a way you can put multiple designs in 1 Affinity Designer file. Typically, you would use them to easily have related designs in the same document. For example, maybe you have 2 versions of your company's logo: one in black and white, and one in color. You could put them on different artboards in the same document.
I have a longer video on Artboards (and the Export persona) here:
