This effect can very well happen in Photoshop in a laptop or any under powered PC or simply one with heavy load.

Which machine (cpu, ram, disk) and graphic card are you testing this on? And what is the size of the canvas ? Are you working in RGB, CMYK, 32 bits ? Are you running other software at the same time ? In the very first betas given to public -windows ones- I did not notice any faceting (but yep other issues, which I believe were mostly solved in 1.6). Is not a solution for your problem, mostly a curiosity. Even with Stabilizer on, the lines are sometimes still faceted (if you set a low Flow value). But it is a separate tool (or option) and should not be used as a fix for low quality line rendering (but maybe Affinity didn't add Stabilizer to fix the line rendering and they plan on solving this issue in the future - I don't know). I don't say that a stabilization in general is bad. I suggest downloading the Free version and studying the implementation while sketching with Wacom tablet. As far as I know there is no stabilization employed yet it allows you to draw extremely fast with no lag and with total precision (the line goes where you want it to go). Take a look at the quality of the lines for example in Autodesk Sketchbook Free. The lines should be smooth even without any stabilization. If someone from Affinity is reading this - please fix the line rendering. I also added a comparison with other programs (see below). I have recorded short video demonstrations (GIFs) describing the disadvantages of using Stabilizer as a solution for faceted lines. It might be useful in certain cases but it is unusable for regular sketching (too much lag, lack of control over the resulting shape, only slow and deliberate movement required, you have to fight the tool if you want to sketch quickly). There is of course the Stabilizer but this tool is no replacement for proper line rendering. Unfortunately the line rendering hasn't been improved at all.

Hi, I am testing the 1.6.0.89 Trial of Photo and Designer right now.

With high quality bitmap brush engine Affinity apps would become much more versatile. I did a quick search and didn't see any thread mentioning this issue. Sorry if this has already been talked about and put on the roadmap. But since even inexpensive Sketchbook went rental-only I have lost interest in the software. One of the best rendered lines I have seen were in Autodesk Sketchbook (and of course Studio Tools/Alias). Even Photoshop (an all around app not specialized in sketching) has always done an adequate job in this regard. This is how it should be done at the very least. The last picture is from OpenCanvas - line rendering in OC is very good. I am sorry to say that but this is the worst I have seen. Sadly this is not adequate even for basic sketching. The bitmap brush engine in both programs renders hand drawn lines with very low quality - lines are not smooth, they end up faceted/broken no matter the drawing style or brush settings.
