Thanks for listening! I've attached a screen recording. Sorry for using the incorrect terminology - I realise the term "inside" was maybe a bit confusing. What I mean is that when I have two shapes, the outer square with NO fill, and the inner circle, and if I go to drag the inner circle shape, it also selects the outer square, even though I'm not intersecting the square's stroke with the cursor. This behaviour only started happening in version 2 I believe, it wasn't an issue in the previous version. I'm using Mac OS Sonoma, with a mouse, and Designer 2.3.1. Thank you!

Sorry for bringing this up again, but it's really frustrating me - every time I select anything, no matter how small, inside a larger shape that has NO fill, the larger shape is also selected. I am not intersecting the stroke of the larger shape. Is this a bug or expected behaviour? It didn't used to do this in the V1 versions.

Hello, I'm having an issue with a specific font (Pangram's Neue Montreal Mono) showing a strange box around it in Affinity. This only happens with this font on uppercase characters, and it only happens in Affinity Designer & Publisher. This behaviour is not exhibited in Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop. There doesn't appear to be anything set as a stroke (which would show around the individual characters anyway). Any ideas where I can look to get rid of it? Thanks!

I don't believe this used to happen in v1x of Designer, but now whenever I try to drag to select multiple objects inside of a shape that has no fill colour, the shape is also selected which is terribly annoying. However small my selection marquee is, it always selects the empty shape. Is there a setting I need to turn on or off? In the below example the black rectangle has a stroke but no fill, if I drag to select the items inside the shape, then the shape itself is also selected. This didn't used to happen in the v1 versions of Designer. Thanks!

Variable fonts support

I can't believe that in the 2.0 update (which I paid for), variable fonts are still not supported 🤯- 239 replies

Pulling my hair out with this one because I'm about to hand over a file to my colleague while I'm overseas for a month, and I've just discovered that what the Finder preview of this specific file is, and what actually opens is different. Affinity has replaced all the embedded images with something else 🥵 Any ideas on how I can get the images that are actually showing in the preview to show up in the actual file?! I have attached images - as you can see the QuickLook preview in Finder shows the correct images on the artboards, but when I open the file, a standard image that Affinity has chosen from somewhere has replaced most of my embedded images!!!

Hello, I'm just wondering if it's possible to have Designer (or Publisher) maintain my OpenType stylistic choices across all new text boxes created across the program, or do you have to set your preferred options on each document? It looks like Designer maintains stylistic sets across all new text boxes created in each individual document, but is there any way to set a default for the font so it does the same thing in every new document? Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestion - I did find a "workaround" thanks to you - but not because of baseline grid. The vertical alignment dropdown on the toolbar is not working, however when I opened the Studio Table, I am able to select vertical alignment in there and it's working. Selecting any alignment in the toolbar dropdown does nothing. Thanks again!

Copying data into tables
AVC replied to riball's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
The only way I got this to work was by copying the table data into TextEdit as Plain Text, then copy and paste from there. This method worked correctly for me. -
Copying data into tables
AVC replied to riball's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
Sorry for bringing up an old topic - but this is frustrating me no end. I have a big spreadsheet that I am trying to transfer into a table in Designer/Publisher. Copying and pasting the table data results in all the fields being placed into the one cell. Nothing seems to work! -
Any plans for PDF form editing?
AVC replied to CodeDog's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
This is the one feature that is missing for me that would allow me to ditch Adobe completely. Currently it's time consuming to have to design my form in Designer, save as PDF, then create the form in Acrobat. Not to mention that if one of the team wants something on the form adjusted, I have to go through the whole process in Acrobat again. Please add fillable elements in Publisher or Designer soon!
