As a beginner I really want to like Affinity, I even bought Photo and Designer, but it's just so hard to find tutorials with the same UI! For every single tutorial I follow I'm like "ok click here, click here and... wtf where is this button? Why doesn't it work?". Even the window to create a new project doesn't look the same between my version and what's in the tutorial, some options don't even seem to exist anymore

The other day I was trying to apply a mask on a layer and in the tutorial they painted it with a black brush to hide some parts of the changes on the layer. I failed miserably because:

1. The toolbar has like 5 different tools with a brush icon, I had no idea which one to choose

2. I tried them all, and the result was always the same: I paint with the black paint, see the changes, release my click, and 1 second later the changes are cancelled for no apparent reason

I feel like having a global command palette would help keep tutorials relevant for a longer period of time, because if I don't find an icon I could just global search it by name...

Something like Reaper's action search. I can't find anything 99% of the time, but I don't have to since everything is one Shift+? away.
