I like to use a global setting of 150%, but not for everything - Affinity's interface elements take up a lot of screen real estate when display upscaling is active, and it ignores the application-specific 'disable display scaling' compatibility setting.Īffinity Designer, their alternative to Illustrator, is also excellent, while Publisher (cf InDesign) and some sort of DAM application (it's unclear if this will be closer to Bridge or Lightroom) are in the pipeline. Existing owners of the Mac version can download the 1.5 update free of charge. It is part of the Affinity trinity alongside.

I'm really interested to see where they take this.
