  1. I want to compose lists where the bullet is outside of the paragraph, typically known as hanging bullet points, something like this: text text text text text text text text text · list item 1 · list item 2 · list item 3 text text text text text text text text text Right now it's possible only if I indent everything and remove the indentation for the lists. That's a hack, not a proper workflow.
  2. UPDATE: Solved it by removing that page and always appending pages. As soon as I want to prepend a page, the text flow throughout its columns is reversed. Admins: feel free to delete this post. Hi, I've these pages and columns: whenever I want to move the empty page to the left, the text flow in the columns is reversed And there's no way to fix it. If I try to modify the flow using the triangles in the text frames, it gets reversed in all the pages. Any workaround?
  3. Hi Walt, thanks a lot for your response! > If you did that intentinally I would delete that link and try linking the inner frames again. I did that and that was an improvement, now the text flows throughout the four frames in the spread. > Shift+Click the red triangle, and Publisher will create the remaining pages it needs. When I did this, Publisher created the pages but didn't let the text flow throughout all the text frames in all those pages. Just in case I created a new document and repeated these steps in the first and only page in that document and this time, it did work. So it looks like Publisher will only do it if it's the only page in the document. Thanks a lot of the help, Walt!
  4. Hi, I've written 125 pages in Apple Pages. I want to copy and paste all that text into Affinity Publisher, using linked text frames. Each page has two columns, each column a text frame, that is linked with the others, except from the inner of left page to the inner frame of the right page. Can't link those. Whenever I click the triangle on the inner left frame to link it to the inner right frame, the cursor doesn't change. Anyway, I copied the text of the 125 pages, setup 100 pages in Publisher, and pasted it in the inner frame of the right page. It only pasted the text up to the outer frame of the right page. And the same happens in the left page. I also tried the option "Add pages from file..." (from a PDF, because for whatever reason Publisher can't import directly from Pages) only to realize there's no option to assign a master page and the imported pages had the dimension of the page set in the source file. When I tried applying a master to it, it distorted the content. On top of that, the content imported by this option was composed line by line. So this option is completely useless in my case. I'm sure there's a better way than clicking on the text frames on each page to make the text flow. Can you please give me a hand on this? Thanks!
  5. Steps to reproduce 1. add a pixel layer 2. click on Gradient tool What I expected To be able to select the gradient tool and create a gradient, like it was possible with 1.7 Actual result It's impossible to select the gradient tool System macOS Catalina Affinity Photo 1.8.0.163
  6. +1 Wanted to spray some gradient filled circles at different small sizes and realized that I'll have to do it by hand.
  7. I purchased Affinity Publisher this week and I was testing it now and quickly realized that it was lacking a Story editor or Zen mode editor, or Distraction free editor, however you want to call it. Just a simple text editor that allows us to edit text without worrying about the layout and that has the usual keyboard shortcuts for moving between words like any other text editing area in macOS. I was surprised to find that Alt+left/right arrow adjusted the kerning instead of moving me to the next word. Funny thing is that even after remapping that keyboard shortcut to Cmd+Alt+left/right arrow, it still won't work and move the cursor like in any other editing area in macOS.
