Is it me?
I cannot find how to adjust the margins with latest build....
Any ideas?
Thanks

Greetings one and all
So, I have this collage that I'm making - it consists of four photos vertically placed. My old eyes can't cope with the dimensions shown between images when I move them. Is there an automatic way to distribute them in order to make my life simpler?
Many thanks

Just to round this off.....
I have found Pixillion by NCH software - there are Windows and Mac versions. I chose the Windows one (on a trial) and it does the job well. I decided to purchase the full program. The maximum batch size in the trial version is a mere five. A batch of some 20,000 is being covered as I write.....
The plan is to move the folder from Windows to Mac and make use of it there.
Thanks again, and I hope that if someone stumbles across this thread, the info is useful.
Cheers.

Thanks Guys
Thank you for the suggestions. Exporting the files is problematic because they are on Windows. I have Parallels running.
The Metafile to EPS Converter does the job, but can only deal with one file at a time. I really need a batch converter...
I'll keep looking

Greetings - Oh, and Happy New Year......
I have a large collection of WMF's (which I got from Serif when I used their products. )Thy are not readable with Affinity.
They are too good to waste and now that I'm Mac orientated, I would like to convert these somehow into a format that Affinity recognises...
Does anyone have a suggestion for a conversion program - not too expensive - that can do the task?
I am not interested in the online conversion route.
Is EPS the best option to convert to?
Cheers

So I typed in affin.co/core_skills_artboards.afdesign (as per page 71) and all I get is an Error 404 - page not found. Clearly I am doing something wrong. Would some kind soul please enlighten me? I'm old, so be gentle. Thanks

Thanks for the information. I previously had been following the tutorials on https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/tutorials/photo/and it is from there that they have disappeared. This web page doesn't seem to have any connection with Vimeo.....
But I see that the tutorial that I was interested in is indeed available through the link that Lee provided, so thanks again.

Some of the newer ones seem to have gone walkabout. For instance, Tutorial: Channels: Creating/Storing Selections - that seems to have gone. I think there are three others. All of which appear to be the latest additions... I have cleared my browsing cache in case I'm being led to an earlier 'edition' of the site. The latest one shown is 'Non-Destructive in painting and cloning.
Puzzling.

Have some of the Photo tutorials been discarded - or is it me?
Thanks

Once again, you've triumphed MEB.
Very many thanks.

Tutorial: Channels: Creating/Storing Selections
I am endeavouring to follow the above tutorial on my own image.
Early on, with the Channels option selected I do not have 'Pixel Red', 'Pixel Green', 'Pixel Blue' or 'Pixel Alpha' available.
What am I missing?
Thanks

Thanks MBd! Ifeel such an idiot. I thought that I might have to reinstall the program…… Much appreciated - Mitch

MEB:
I should never have doubted you. You are absolutely correct of course. My thanks to you for clearing this issue for me.
Cheers

Hi Guys and thanks for the replies…
MEB: The 'Add'' option doesn't work either. I can certainly add to the existing selection, but not within it.
You are both welcome to have a go with image that I uploaded. If you get the required result, I;d be interested to know about it.
Cheers

Well, I I have finally found a way to do this although it's a bit clumsy…..
I selected the gap first refined it and exported the image as a png.
Then i opened the png and selected the pair of us and once again refined the thing and I then was able to paste a new background. It works, but is there a simpler way?
Cheers

Difficult to describe the problem in the limited space in the title...
My problem is that I have an image of my wife and I standing close together and whilst I have no problem selecting our outline, I cannot seem to find a way to also select a gap between us for the purpose of eliminating the background. I am probably missing something really simple, but can anyone advise me how to go about this, please?
Thanks. I have attached the image in question.
