A polar grid is a guide that helps you to draw a mandala. As there is no option in Affinity Designer for that, you have to draw it yourself and place the symbols to mirror and repeat the patterns on it. I hope you'll find this helpful!

Thank you so much! I'm a bit shy as I'm not sure about my English accent, so, that's nice to hear

Merci for your grid. I guess it can be done with AD on a laptop. I'll give it a try.

@MbyMorganK Год назад

Mais de rien. And absolutely yes. I learned to make the grid with symbols on the PC version. Then I use a tablet as it's more practical to draw the mandala with an I-pencil. Let me know how it goes

Hey thank you and funny as I really just record videos depending on my nails (that are real haha) and I just broke one today. So I'll have to wait :)

Hi thanks for the video, i just got one question, how can i export the same line/curves from different symbol groups as a layer? (I hope I make it clear) since if we draw it in the one symbol, we can get the same design in other symbol, but how can we export the same curve from different symbols as one layer?

@MbyMorganK 8 месяцев назад

Hi Esther, I haven't tried it as I wouldn't need it but in the Layers menu you can choose "merge visible" or "merge selected" but the issue is that it changes your layer to pixel. And I need to resize for prints so I'd never use that. (I just tried : merge selected doesn't work on my Ipad. Probably too many layers?)

Is it possible to add color to the inside of the mandala if you are using strokes and not closed shapes?

@MbyMorganK 5 месяцев назад

I used to do that in Procreate but I didn't search how to do it in Affinity Designer. There is an option to fill colour as you draw any shape but I didn't test it yet on a mandala. Maybe it would require to do the coloured shapes 1st and add the simple lines later? Let me know if you find a way
