Your workflow in the main Corel suite apps is completely customizable. It has a default layout and shortcut configuration as well as a preset that it comes with which allegedly apes Illustrator's, but you can if you prefer redefine almost everything.

You can choose what tools go in your toolbars, which options show in your drop down menus, where those toolbars are located, and you can even reconfigure the keyboard shortcuts for literally every command, including adding shortcuts to commands which don't have one by default. I think the only limitation is that they can't conflict with inbuilt OS hotkeys, e.g. you can't bind anything to Alt + F4.

You can also perform macros and script the main suite apps using VBA which is only mildly opaque, but opens up the possibility of a world of batch processing tricks if you feel like going down that rabbit hole. I prefer to use Imagemagick for that sort of thing, personally.

That's definitely good stuff. Affinity is also lacking in interface customization I've found.
