This was fixed in Photo 1.7.2.x release. DM1 - thank you for this and your continued feedback on all things Help related. Very much appreciated. \Andy Capstick

This is wrong in docs. I've removed it from the help. Thanks for spotting it. Andy Capstick

Thanks DM1 - just seen this so now fixed.

Fixed. Just an oversight as MEB suggested :-)

Hi Walt, This is with the Photo lead developer to decide what to do. I've mentioned on our internal fault reporting system about the implications when using light UI so I'd imagine they will consider that. The workbooks will change to reflect the UI, i.e. whatever works for both UI styles. \AndyC

Hi, Workbook update.. I've logged that the screenshot on p.31 will need to be looked at on reprint (changing from white to light blue). The 'white' area is implied to be luminance as the text on the left spread states "The Histogram Panel shows the distribution of Red, Green, Blue and Luminance values for the image, layer or current marquee selection." Cheers Andy

Paul - this needed work :-) Fixed. Thanks Andy

Got that. :-) AndyC

Wrong of course - now fixed in docs.

Text>Insert Text from File is now replaced by File>Place due to Publisher dev. Fixed in docs.

Hi everyone - AndyC from Affinity docs here - it's highly unlikely that docs will document functionality in advance of it appearing in the UI. Mainly because we see the code at the same time as beta testers see it, and we update for the subsequent build. :-) Assume that we've had a hiccup in docs for issues like this - just flag it and I'll fix in pronto! \AndyC

Hi Joe, I'm the editor of the Workbook so I thought I'd reply directly. I'm a bit concerned about the many indexing errors you have encountered. I had a look at p. 204 and the vignette filter is actually mentioned at the bottom of the page so i'm happy with that. The other reference on p. 166 hasn't got an index entry so I will get that fixed for a future reprint. If you're able to point out some of the other errors i'd be grateful. In the meantime, I'm going to have our QA team look at the indexing generally to spot any issues. Unfortunately we don't publish corrections for our workbooks. Thanks for your feedback. /AndyC

Hi Robin3, Raster images (JPG, PNG, etc) are raster anyway - the export options only affect downsampling of those in different ways. Do you mean if you placed a vector image such as SVG you were expecting some level of edibility after export but you didn't get any? I'll investigate further if so. \AndyC
