[Problem uninstalling Affinity Publisher]

[Problem uninstalling Affinity Publisher]

Hi. I downloaded Affinity Publisher latest update. My pc crashed while I was performing the install. It seems the update was canceled but the previous version I am using is unable to work.

The Affinity Publisher folder is present, but I can not execute the app or perform an uninstall operation in order to install the latest update. If I try to execute the newest Affinity Publisher install a dialog window appears saying that the Affinity Publisher folder is already in my system and I should pick a new folder in order to install it. I would like to perfom a clean uninstall of the previous Apublisher and then install the new version.

 

Thank you

[Affinity Designer selection]

Hi. I am trying to select multiple lines in AD. 

Is there anyway to set up AD to let me select vectors without needing to include the whole shape within my rectangle ? 

 

 

 

[Affinity Publisher recovery files?]

Hi. I was working with my CV, forgot to save it ....and AP crashed. Is there any chance I can have an autosave file? If so, where?

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

Thank you, I might give a try to publisher if it is more suited to make a CV. I will use the tryout and feel how it works. 

I understand your view about Affinity and their fair prices, that was the reason why I sign out from Adobe cloud. 

Being said that, I do not believe that a box tool will exemplify a feature that "putting everything possible into " thing...

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

Thank you @Lagarto I will do what I can anyways cause this is just a CV and masking to write a simple text might be to far. I really appreciate your help, but I am still surprised by some aspects in the workflow.

Sometimes is better to improve what others did rather than revolutionize the common sense in order to be different. 

 

 

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

This is normal. When there is more text in AD than will fit in the text frame, the text expands downward beyond the bottom of the frame. If you move the pointer over the lower middle control handle until it turns into a vertical double headed arrow shape & double-click, the frame will expand downward to include all of it.

The intention is to crop the text when the box is smaller and hide it more than the opposite in my case. Thank you

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

Thank you @Lagarto I do not have Publisher, neither planning to, but I must say the workflow in AD in some of their tools ....In other words the box tool does not perform as such.

 

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

Sure! Here you have, thank you!

[Frame Text tool, text overriding the boundaries?]

Hi,  I am pasting text from another text editor into AD. 

The text is longer than the box size, and somehow it overrides the limits being still visible.

Is there any way to restrain my text to the frame text tool? 

Thank you

[Affinity Designer on Windows running extremely slow]

I worked today again with AD. Its slow, was a different file, and as soon as there are more than 10 lines....it becomes almost impossible to use.

@haakoo You mean select everything and ctrl+G ?

[Affinity Designer on Windows running extremely slow]

@firstdefence

Please find attached the performance Tab.

Might need to change the video card to my RTX I guess?

[Affinity Designer on Windows running extremely slow]

Hi, I am kind of new with AD (windows)

I can notice that it is extremely slow. I am trying to create a ruler texture. Meaning many small lines to make the ruler template. 

Still I believe it is too slow. 

Find attached the file please.

My version is 1.7.3.481 

Is there any way to download previous versions of Affinity ? I read that there are other users complaining about the speed of it. 

 

 

 

 

Please find the file attached.

[Snapping not accurate ?]

Hi, I am trying to fix my portfolio, I am placing images by using the align tool and snapping. 

Sharing the edges of my images between each other.

When I open it in PS I can see a thin line between images of "no color". Is this related to AD or to my images? 

Thanksa lot. 

[blue frame in my canvas?]

Thanks, It was "unchecked". I guess it could be a bug. I just checked and then  unchecked...fix. But it was unchecked. 

Thanks for your tip!

[Scaling with percentage]

Thanks a lot for the insights to everyone 

[Scaling with percentage]

Hi. I read the only way to scale using specific values is by applying for.ex. =/2 within the dimension box. 

It works for me, sometimes it does and sometimes it does not. Is this a bug or I am missing something ? 

Sometimes I need to select my lines and de-select them and then select them again. Now is not working regardless of what I do. 

 

Any insights about this? Not other method to scale by a number/percentage? 

Thanks

Then the Rhino software probably exports all the vectors as one connected path. You can also try SVG as an exchange format, in order to see if it's the same then and as far as Rhino supports that format for exporting.

I am giving a try to Rhino 6, apparently works much better in terms of wrapping the lines into PDF. Now AD do not struggle anymore.

Thanks

Look into the AD layers panel and how the imported sketch is represented there. Select the lines layers of interest there and alter their strokes etc.

There is one layer with everything in it. 

 

[Rhino 5 MAC to AD 1.7]

Hi. New on AD. I opened a few times, but still trying to find my way (too long on AI). 

I exported a 2D drawing from Rhino as a PDF (since AI is not supported). I would like to assign different thicknesses to some of the lines of my drawing. 

The drawing lines are not joined in Rhino. When I open the PDF in AD the sketch looks to be all merged (using black arrow). Using the white arrow I just have too many nodes in every line to select them one by one, not even sure if this is the way. 

I would like to ask for help in this matter.

 

Kind regards ,
