Any of these options, even just one. For the love of all that's Holy. Please. Even as a paid plugin.

AD 1.9.0 Crash on EXPORT Mac OS 10.14.6
DMullerDesign replied to DMullerDesign's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
It's the images in your document, re-link or re-import (you'll have to resize and reposition as a minimum), but that fixed the issue for me. -
AD 1.9.0 Crash on EXPORT Mac OS 10.14.6
DMullerDesign replied to DMullerDesign's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
Hi Jon, I can confirm that the problem appears to be the placed images (including the pdfs – it may have borked at the first pdf image it found and never got further). To fix I re-linked every image in the document and then corrected the sizes/ sclaing of each. The file export now works. It's only happening with files created from previous versions it seems. -
AD 1.9.0 Crash on EXPORT Mac OS 10.14.6
DMullerDesign replied to DMullerDesign's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
Ahh.. that doesn't work either. The files created in 1.9.0 are not compatible with 1.8.6 - there's no option to save for a legacy version and you cannot have both versions running side-by-side. So I can;t cut and paste from the newer to the older. I can't save in the older format from the newer. The only option is to literally remake everything, again, from the start. Why do I upgrade? It's such a dumb thing to do but I fall for it every single time. -

AD 1.9.0 Crash on EXPORT Mac OS 10.14.6
DMullerDesign replied to DMullerDesign's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
In plain text, yes. Attached. I have tried copying and pasting all the elements into a new document. Same result. Crashes on export dialog. Every single time. AP-CrashReportFeb2021-DMuller.txt Is there not a way to rollback in the interim? I have jobs that need to get to the printers this week and clients needing work urgently next week also. -
Affinity Publisher quits whenever i try to save work 1.9.0
DMullerDesign replied to Lin D's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
I'm having the same issues. Mac OS 10.14.6 Mojave) – need a way to rollback to a working version. -
Hi, I can no longer export a file with the latest update. The program exits automatically at the dialog window of the export option. Is there a way I can rollback to an earlier, working, version please?

Good day, this seems like it should be simple but the solution eludes me. I do a lot of work with creating seamless textures. When I select, or create, a texture in AP I always end up with a 'faded' or aliased edge. Even turning off anti-aliasing in the selection settings and setting feather to zero does not prevent this from occurring. It's incredibly frustrating. Any seamless textures I export, in any file format, always have a faded edge around them so that the tile edges are visible on any objects they are applied to in a 3D editor. The only way I have found to minimise this is to create multiple, identical layers in the file I wish to export and export WITHOUT merging them down. When cutting and pasting textures or images every edge has a slight fade (1-2px wide) around it, so that tiled textures have a clear cross-hatching where the faded edges join. Again, there is a work around which requires me to jog the pasted image a few pixels in either direction to close the join and remove the fade, but then the original ratio is compromised and it requires me to resize the exported file back to the correct dimensions. So, two questions. Why is this a 'feature' of a non-aliased, non-feathered selection and secondly, how the hell do I prevent it from happening all the time? Thanks in advance.

DDS File Support
DMullerDesign replied to XIIICaesar's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on Desktop
If it's any incentive whatsoever, I would pay for a plugin that provided this functionality. At the moment I endlessly export as png, then use a third-party application to convert to .dds – what a flipping drag on workflow. A graphics tool, despite having 'photo' in the title isn't just used by photographers, in fact, the market share if you only aim AP at photographers is tiny when compared to all the thousands that create graphics for games and applications. So if it helps recoup some of the cost for the development, sure, I'd pay for a plugin that would ease my workflow. -

Export Text Only

+2 – it's features like this that transform a great application into an exceptional one. -

Same issue here and it's completely random. One design exported at 96dpi can be 6mm x 6mm when imported into jscut (online) although the root design in affinity designer is 50mm x 50mm. Export something else at 96dpi and it can be either huge, or tiny. No consistency at all. I'm having to use inkscape (yuk) to create svg's for import to the gcode creator. I had spent an age trying to calculate thread pitch and stepper rotations as I though my cnc was off. It wasn't of course. It was affinity designer's export function.

I've just completed my first bit of illustration with Designer and I really love it, some of the tools and features are BETTER than Illustrator, really nicely implemented. I imagine this feature is actually harder to realise that we expect (I can barely code anything, well, maybe some Arduino stuff). Still, it would be lovely to have the feature added. As for the price tag comment. Hey, I'd happily pay £400, 500 or £600 for well-functioning software, it was Adobe's adoption of the rent-seeking payment model that finally did it for me. Small studios cannot support these kinds of costs. For now, the entire Serif suite has served most of my needs, almost seamlessly, so well done team.
