Bring back the V1 export window with the icons along the top. If too many icons allow scrolling and sorting so favourite formats can be moved to front. The new dropdown export window in v2 is so generic and slower to use than the old layout

Thanks, it has bugged me for years. At least I know a way around it now!

Ok, what difference do the x and y make as the selection is still the same size?

Hi, they are normally in pixels (no decimal points involved). In the attached example I created a 400px circle, export as selection only and it tells me the dimensions are 401 x 401px

When you export a selected artwork and choose 'selection only' the dimensions are always about 1px too big (normally width), even though in Designer under transform it says the dimensions of object are such and such the exported PNG, for instance, is not the same dimensions. The exported file normally has a empty 1px gap on the edge of the PNG or similar format.

Ok, thanks for the response. The Place command workaround helps me out of my issue.

I'm just looking to open a PDF in Photo as it is with no editing of text required. I can't seem to open PDF's without the text going wrong due to missing fonts. In Photoshop I can open PDFs as raster images, is this possible in Photo?

Thanks for the replies, seems like an odd omission. Is it a problem with Designer or Publisher? Glad they are fixing it anyway

I've created 2 x A5 documents with 3mm bleed. I then import the files (.afdesign) into a 2 page A5 publisher document with 3mm bleed. Publisher doesn't show the 3mm bleed and only crops to the document size. I can't see any settings to display bleed on the placed image/document. When I export the Designer documents as PDF with bleed. I can import them into Publisher and it gives the option along the top to change the 'Page Box' to display bleed etc. This seems odd I would have thought it would give at least the same or more options to import a 'native' file format.

Hi @dominik, yes I did as you instructed, but when I create a new layer (not pixel layer) it appears as a blank (or black in dark mode) square for me. I can't see any settings I have on that would make the folder icon not appear if it should do by default. The layer1 & layer2 below are both newly created layers to show what I mean. I'm using the latest designer version on Mac OS Catalina BTW.
