affinity designer: how to join separate curves at non-endpoints? - Graphic Design Stack Exchange - Conclusion
Alas, it too has an unconventional interface I constructed the final shape in Image 1 by cutting overlapping curves - unfortunately the shape was a bit too complex to use their pathfinder tools - and joining them with the node tool.
However there's no way I can see to merge those nodes once everything has been combined to form a single closed volume. I read through the node tool's help section and have been googling the question but this was the closest topic I found. But I can post it separately and give it a shot! Your problem confuses ME! So I can only imagine the response at Affinity! Plus, it might get lost in the shuffle and other Illustrator folk might better understand your issue.

Posted November 4, Tocoja Posted November 4, If you hover your cursor over each button, a label will populate telling you what they do. Once you click that button, the two nodes will be joined, and what was once two separate curves is now a single, combined curve:. If you need that line to be curved, or to follow a specific contour, then you can do so clicking and dragging the line to curve it, and by using the adjustment handles to adjust it further. This is one of those areas where having experience working with other vector applications in the past comes in handy, as the workflow used to join curves in Affinity Designer is pretty consistent.
If you know how to do this sort of thing with Inkscape or Illustrator, then you pretty much already know how to do so with Designer. If you have any questions or need clarification on anything covered in this tutorial then leave a comment below. Want to learn more about how Affinity Designer works?
