Image 2 is a closeup of one of the wonky spots on the eps file when opened in Designer (the horizontal line on that leaf should not be there, it should be one continuous shape and gradient, see png).
Image 1 is the png file and the correct way the logo should look. At this point, I am about to pull my hair out. But it is opening very inconsistently in different programs and I cannot get it to display correctly in Affinity Designer. So I just asked for an svg, because I thought you just couldn’t go wrong with an svg. I was sent an eps file, and there were weird lines and broken shapes that made the gradient weird and the logo kinda wonky. I asked our marketing director for a vector version of the graphic, and she asked the person who made the logo. I had a png file of our logo that I was going to put on the poster, but after scaling, it was too small to be stretched that much, plus the colors were a bit off when converted to CMYK. Pasting colours works from a whole range of formats, including hex codes, color names, and css-style “rgb” and “rgba” strings.I am using Affinity Designer to create a poster for work that will be 36” x 54”. We’ve come up with multiple techniques for solving this problem, ranging from the RSI inducing “ select and copy red value, alt-tab, paste, alt-tab, select and copy green value, alt-tab, paste, etc….” method, through to chanting “ 70, 145, 160… 70, 145, 160… 70, 145, 150… 70, 145, 150” to ourselves as we frantically try and rearrange dialogs to find the destination colour picker, all the while avoiding strange looks from co-workers.įortunately, QGIS 2.4 is coming to the rescue! Now, you can right click on any of QGIS’ colour picker buttons for a handy copy/paste colour shortcut menu.
Since the dawn of GIS humanity has struggled with this simple task*.
Quick poll… what’s the most frustrating thing about GIS? Fighting with colour plotters? Trying to remember GDAL command line syntax? MapInfo’s new ribbon interface* ? All of the above?
