[Vector layers]

Thanks for the reply, Old Bruce; I understand now.  Surely though, there must be a way to remember particular Pen settings, without having to re-enter the settings? 

[Vector layers]

Hi MEB.  I am using Affinity Photo pen tool.   I can save a particular pen style (e.g. a thin grey line) and save it under "Styles'.  However, If I then change to using say a tool with a thick red line, when I return to using the pen tool I cannot get it to adopt to the saved Style (thin grey line), even though I click on the Style icon (before drawing the pen line), and trying ^ Cntrl. clicking, Cmd. clicking, etc.  I can only adopt the saved Style after I have drawn the pen line.  

If I am drawing a series of lines they will all be drawn as the settings were previously left (i.e. a thick red line), and I can only change them to the saved Style by clicking on each layer and then clicking on the saved Style.  Surely, there must be a way for the pen tool to adopt to a saved Style before you draw it?

It is now appearing!.  Don't know what I just did... I seem to be lying... It is there now.  Thanks everyone for the replies.  I appear to be an idiot!

What I see is just the complete list of all the fonts available, but, no mention of 'Recent, Used," etc.  It does seem weird?

Hi Lagarto.  Yes, I can obtain the 'Character' panel, that is OK.  But the top left context dropdown is nowhere to be seen… is it hidden somewhere?  Do you need to access it via the View > Studio >  menu?

Hi Wait.Farrell.  Thanks for the reply.  I am doing as you say, but I cannot see the 'pull-down' as you show, no matter what I click on.  See attached screedshot.

Hi.  I cannot get my version of Publisher (1.8.4) to display the Font Panel showing "All, Recent, Used, Favourites' – as indicated by MEB and Lagarto.  What am I doing wrong?
