    If I have to run Affinity in a VM it will be a MacOS one just to avoid Windows 🤣

    OK, so both statements cannot be generalized to everyone, that's fair. But there is quite a movement toward looking at Linux, even among creatives. And there are common reasons behind people's desire for an alternative - much of it to do with corporate anti-consumer practices that a lot of people are sick of and desperate to get away from.

    I came looking for a good answer to the OP question. I am going away with the same answer I had already. Open the Affinity Photo document in Affinity Publisher. Crop the layer as desired using the crop tool Save and close Reopen in Photo If you don't like all those other workarounds, this works pretty well.

    On Windows I have found that copying and pasting from Word has the same result if the cursor is in the first table cell, but if I select the whole first row it pasts properly. That will not be obvious to users as the behaviour is different in Word and Excel, etc.

    Oh, cool, I wasn't aware of that tool. It looks promising! I'll try it out. Thanks!

    After trying this on several systems, I am finding that different versions of dependencies seem to create a lot of headaches. If someone could containerise this whole thing, maybe it would be better.

    Same. I think I started in '95. At first I thought CC was cool, but that didn't last long. My only regret was not upgrading to CS6 perpetual and staying there. I went from 5.5 to CC.

    Not going anywhere yet. I think it's way too early to tell how it will all pan out, but if the most dreaded things happen, then we'll for sure be back to looking for alternatives.

    Ooh, you're right!

    I'm sorry to be like this but the first thing I did was to run a comparison of the EULA from before and after. Given recent developments. They are the same.
  32. OzNate
    Exactly
  33. OzNate
    I support that

    I feel like I've been here before. Adobe bought Macromedia, who made my favourite software. It didn't end well. That was before subscriptions, which is worse and why I'm here. I'll still be a user for now because you're still the best option but I will be keeping an eye solidly on open source and other alternatives. I think it's fair to say many of us feel no enthusiasm at all whatsoever about this.

    FYI, yesterday I allowed Windows 10 to run an update and today I had this problem again. 🤔 After resetting in Publisher (via holding Ctrl and choosing to reset including "Deactivate" option), it would no longer start or show a splash screen, but Photo and Designer gave a splash screen, then an error: "Sorry, there was a problem launching the application. Cannot communicate with other Affinity apps. Please ensure the app is up-to-date and that your firewall isn't blocking local network traffic." Restarting the system fixed the error message and apps now work again (obviously had to reactivate). So it seems to be a problem with activation, and brings back nightmares we used to have with a certain other creative software company's products, so I do hope this can be fixed. 🙏🏻

    Solved my issue by choosing the last option when you hold Ctrl while starting up - "Deactivate Affinity 2 apps" After this I was able to step through reactivation and the apps started normally.
