But I am doing for several years pro work with Inkscape, Blender and Wings 3D. I agree, though, seems UX is not a subject in a lot of those. Only Blender+Wings are replacing fully the matter in my case, for 3D area) alternative open source tools. If I was masochist I would have never looked as a viable extra (so, to add as an extra weapon. Indeed, was the pain of purchasing a (OUCH) 1200 euros (by the time, the costs to reach my country increased crazily the final price) application like Deep Paint 3D, that later got ended, and no more updates, later on after purchasing XSI Foundation (500 euros), and then seeing how after an Autodesk tactical purchase (it was interested in making Max(mostly) and Maya the main 3D packages) the software saw there its last days (a monopoly, dunno if sounds familiar.). (realizing though that it is a free option, with some limitations.
But meanwhile, instead of directly going for some costly solution, or wait and wait, (and complain a lot to Affinity, which with 20 developers, is already doing too much.), could be a solution to give a deep, patient try to Scribus. Plus we all love these easy to access and learn as well as fast interfaces. IMO, the ideal thing will be Affinity Publisher, as in any suite, nothing talks better to the compositing tool that the vectorial package and raster one of the same developer. but is open source -free- and multiplatform. Not an ergonomic interface, i fully agree. But got impressed about what Scribus has ended up being. had not time to read stuff, and as I was not concerned to do the compositing -just some art-, didn't read it more than some skimming. They make for their customers the guide for two applications: InDesign and Scribus. It does provide a really extensive guide on how to prepare stuff for them, which indeed is actually a manual for preparing stuff for print.
I happen to just have found a print on demand printer, but one that seems to do things right, professionally (happens not so often), one that has an established name in its field, and while digging in its docs, to check well all specs and ensure things get printed right. Scribus is being used now in quite some serious things.
