Purchase from AppStore
LeoC replied to LeoC's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Ok that explains a lot -
Since the upgrade of Mac OS to Catalina 10.15.4, the ronding corner tool in Designer 1.8.3 does not work anymore like it should. In a complete design, the first corner can be rounded but the next one makes the program stop in an alternative of the wel known "not responding" that we know from the Windows platform. When a make the same square in a different and empty document, the tools works but only on three of four corners, the fourth corner can not be activated when in round corner mode, in other modes it can be activated. See attached file square.afdesign

Hi Walt, Yes it is upgraded to 1.8.3, I have it on automatic, so every update available I accept, but it shows the same screen when starting up the Beta version -

Hi MEB, The app I have installed and is autmatically upgraded to 1.8.2, so that is not the problem. I only want to know if changes are worked on in new versions. I have an old version of Designer Beta but since version 1.8.0 it does not open and ask for a key, or gives the option to install from App Store, but their I can't find it [EDIT] Second image removed due to privacy concerns - e-mail exposed[/] -
I have purchased Photo and Publisher directly form Affinity site, but designer via AppStore from Apple. Both Photo and Publisher are in my Affinity account but Publisher isn't. That maybe logic but for the Beta version a key is required which I can't find. Is there somebody who knows how to find the key from a purchase via Appstore?

Gradient not visible in Publisher
LeoC replied to LeoC's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Today I got the update 257, now it's working -
I have made in Photo Beta a part of a picture a gradient in a rectangle to get a different color. Then as afphoto file placed in Publisher it doesn't show the the gradient. To be sure of correct use of the tools I exported it as an PNG, and then the gradient is clearly visible. Replacing file is not giving any result. transparency-gradient.afpub

OK thanks, good to know

You are right, I've test it and it seems to work as you describe. I never had this before, is this a new in 111? Can you explain how the "dragging" works because I'm not able to steer this with the mouse, both direction will end far in radius 500. I see different behaviour in different colours but I don't see any logic in this behaviour.

Verden 0-R.afphoto It is a big file, only three steps have been made; rotation, crop and unsharp mask. If you open the file in 1.7.0.111 and activate the unsharp live mask you wil see that radius is 0. To have the result that I had I mind I set it on approx 1,7
-
I just started the beta version 111, but this is not working nice. First step was to add an unsharp mask to the picture as live masker. Setting the sliders was one but doing something else was impossible because the sliders fall automatically back to opening position.Then clicking the crop tool let disappear complete history, only after clicking another tool the history is back again. But the settings of the unsharp mask can only be used as last, you have to save the picture directly after this step. In Publisher the mask values looks te be ok, but at double click and opening the Live mask, the sliders are in start position again.
-
Yes, you're right. My mistake. No designer is on my wish-list but to test three programs in the same period is too much to handle. I'm testing Photo and Publisher for a couple of weeks now and as you see I'm still struggling with the differences and capabilities.

The menu shows already Edit in Publisher but it is inactive. The reason why I was looking into this option was that I have a need to open the linked file the publisher document. When you double click the picture you have the possibility to enhance the picture in Publisher with the masks which where already used before in Photo. This enhancement is only done in the publisher document and not in the file itself and from that moment on it is an embedded file and you have to mark it as that, otherwise the file will be replaced when document is reopened. This only works with .afphoto files not with .psd, layer masks in .psd are not visible in Publisher. I agree with you that changing the picture in Photo by open it from Photo is the most stable workflow, but I'm really searching for an option that is similar to Indesign/Photoshop which is; activating picture, click on the edit button, picture opens in PS, save after enhancement and linked picture is replaced in Indesign.
