Image Shadowing after Masking
Ami_M replied to Ami_M's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Thanks both. I usually would share my working file here but it's sensitive data as it contains images of students at school. I've experienced this issue in the past as well - I'll give that black colour selection a go. -

-
Hello! Hoping somebody might be able to help me. I am cutting out some people in Photo using the Selection Brush Tool, using Refine and Output: Mask. After this, I'm copying the layer into Publisher (final piece document), but am finding that there is a border retained after masking, and if I try to paint this away in the mask it makes the background a slightly off colour. I have attached a screenshot to demonstrate what is happening, and a document where the effect is happening. I'd appreciate any insights! Many thanks, Ami Example File - Mask Borders.afpub

Hide artboard names
Ami_M replied to wvanderzee's topic in Feedback for Affinity Designer V1 on Desktop
I would also like to see this as an option! I need to keep my artboards named for ease and reference, so the workaround of naming the artboards with a space doesn't work. I design large displays with multiple boards, and in my master document (which I link other documents to) I can see how the whole thing looks holistically, and I like to take a screen-grab of this for an easy reference point for my colleagues. However, when I am zoomed out to see everything (literally 2%), the artboard names are very intrusive. -

Text Alignment in Shapes
Ami_M replied to CdV's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
If you know how many lines of text you want around the circle, you could just create the text, change the point of rotation to the centre of the circle, then rotate it however much (maybe this will be mathematical) and Ctrl+J to power duplicate, meaning you'd end up with them evenly spaced around the entire thing.- 14 replies

PDF to paths
Ami_M replied to Designer1's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
You can convert text to curves in Affinity Designer. Select the text with the move tool and in the context tool bar there is a button that says 'Convert to Curves'. -

Question about Publisher
Ami_M replied to marjabe's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I've had to do this before many times - the only way I have found is to export one by one! Will the print shop accept one PDF with single pages in - that's easy to do -

Is it possible to create a curved text box, so that text along many lines (for example 5) all follow the same curved path? I am able to create a path for text along a curve just fine, but at the end it doubles back on itself, where I need several lines to follow that same shape. Creating a text frame from a shape just keeps the text straight but fits it to within the shape, which isn't what I'm after either. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!
