Affinity Designer not having DXF / DWG import export... Is preventing me from using it in a professional capacity. I purchased Affinity Designer without checking for the feature, and people have been asking for the feature for at least 5 years. Edit to add the forum link I forgot to paste in: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/6756-dxf-or-dwg-file-import-in-affinity-designer/ https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/6756-dxf-o...

I think a lack of support for spot colors was one of my sticking points, personally. That and 20+ years of Illustrator work to pull resources out of to make new images faster, and multi-year projects meticulously built to maximize re-use and speed, and honestly that's the killer feature for me at this point unless Adobe completely falls apart. Not that Illustrator lacks its share of long-running requests, "rotate the view" has been near the top of their publicly-voted bug/feature request site ever since they opened it, and would be "picked up shortly" back in 2017. https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/19196641-illustrator-rotation-of-the-artboard https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-... (And I know I was asking for it years before they abandoned the old "here's a hole to put your bugs and feature requests into" setup.)
