Fixed help errors Earlier changes and fixes in 1.7.x since 1.6 (including the new 1.7 features) are listed in some detail in this earlier update announcement. This thread is for commenting on this announcement. Please do not post bugs or problems that you find when using this version of the software in this thread, instead make a new thread in the Photo Bugs on Windows section and questions about usage go in the Desktop Questions forum. UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (Free for existing customers) The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in Help > About Affinity Photo). If you’ve purchased from the Affinity Store— each time you start the Affinity Store software it will check for updates and offer any available update. The latest update will install over the top of any earlier version, with no need to uninstall. You can download the latest installer by logging into the affinity store here and find the order in your account and use the "Download" button in there. Alternatively, this new release (and previous versions of Affinity Photo for Windows) can be downloaded from this link. (that installer is NOT for Windows Store purchases and needs a product key). If you’ve purchased from the Microsoft Store— Microsoft Store updates are done automatically by the operating system (each time you start the application). If this does not happen for you, open the Windows Store app and click the three dots in the top right corner of the app and then go to Downloads and Updates. Click Get Updates. This should hopefully force the update to show.

However there is a more recent list for 1.7.2, and that pinned post is no longer accurate but will be when I get a chance. See these 2 attachments Lens corrections - changes in Affinity Photo 1.7.2.pdf Supported Lens List Affinity Photo 1.7.2.txt Is there a reason why you want "much more lenses" or is it a specific lens that you have that is not supported?

Designer crashes in Export Persona (Windows, Designer, 1.7.2.471)

Patrick Connor replied to Zeklandia's topic in Designer Bugs found on Windows

@BIOSMonkey Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums To all readers, Sorry about this regression I have escalated the issue to have it fixed in the next patch. For those on tight deadlines please avoid the slices tab or if that's not possible revert to 1.7.1 from here (works as a trial for those who bought Affinity Designer from the Windows Store)

UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (Free for existing customers) The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in application menu, Affinity Publisher > About). If you’ve purchased from the Mac App Store— updates are done automatically next time you run your software after it is available in the Mac App Store. If this does not happen for you, open the Mac App Store app and go to the Updates page and then Store > Reload page or press CMD+R. This should hopefully force the update to show. Apple sometimes phase roll outs around the world which can mean it may take up to 72 hours for your update to be available. If you’ve purchased from the Affinity Store— each time you start the software it will check for updates and offer to download and install any available update, or in the application main menu there is an option Check for Updates. You can download the latest installer by logging into the affinity store here and find the order in your account and use the "download" button in there. Alternatively, this new release (and previous versions of Affinity Publisher for macOS) can be downloaded from this link (that installer is NOT for Mac App Store purchases and needs a product key).

Done every thing recommended but studio link still not working

Patrick Connor replied to DavidMac's topic in Publisher Bugs found on MacOS

I see that as a strong suggestion. We should try harder to make at least the initial layout match the users current default. Thanks for the suggestion

Beta update failed

Patrick Connor replied to Rick G's topic in Designer Beta on Windows

Thanks. Firstly prove you are still affected (showing it that this does not only happen once per install). Then once you know conditions have not changed, prove these apps are at fault, meaning it does not happen when none of these apps are running. Then turn them back on (one at a time) to find out which one is causing this. It's going to be tedious so don't start if you would rather not. So explicitly... With Nothing turned off at all, so your normal processes all running Uninstall Publisher beta (with all your other apps turned on) Install the/any previous 1.7.2 beta (1.7.2.442 or any earlier beta) with them still turned on. Restart the computer. Install the latest beta 1.7.2. (1.7.2.458.exe) with them all still turned on. Report if it all went smoothly If it goes smoothly then this apparently is not repeatable and stop testing. !! However, If it DOES NOT go smoothly and the setup fails.... Turn all your other apps listed above off or suspend them temporarily. If installed, Uninstall any Publisher beta (with all your other apps turned off) Install the/any previous 1.7.2 beta (1.7.2.442 or any earlier beta) with them turned off. Restart the computer. Install the latest beta 1.7.2. (1.7.2.458.exe) with them turned off. Report if it all went smoothly If it DOES go smoothly.... Uninstall Publisher beta (with all your other apps still turned off) Turn on whichever one of the applications you want. Install the/any previous 1.7.2 beta (1.7.2.442 or any earlier beta) with that app still turned on. Restart the computer. Install the latest beta 1.7.2. (1.7.2.458.exe) with that app still on. Report if it all went smoothly If it DOES go smoothly.... Uninstall Publisher beta (without changing which applications are on) Turn on whichever one of the applications you want to check NEXT. Install the/any previous 1.7.2 beta (1.7.2.442 or any earlier beta) with those apps still turned on. Restart the computer. Install the latest beta 1.7.2. (1.7.2.458.exe) with those 2 apps still on. Report if it all went smoothly Keep going round this loop until you find which application stops the uninstall of the previous beta and install of the latest beta from going well.

Done every thing recommended but studio link still not working

Patrick Connor replied to DavidMac's topic in Publisher Bugs found on MacOS

@DavidMac StudioLink in Publisher Beta only works with Designer beta and Photo beta. The wording on the publisher StudioLink beta dialog should mention requiring a beta of Photo and Designer, but this went in very late. StudioLink in Publisher Release only works with Designer release/trial and Photo release/trial.

File crashes Publisher in release version - was fine in beta

Patrick Connor replied to taharvey's topic in Publisher Bugs found on MacOS

We do not appear to have received the file. Should we close this ticket?

.afdesigner file I made a week ago won't open

Patrick Connor replied to ClareFree's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)

Yes, it would seem so, but Photo on Mac has not been bought directly from the Affinity Store using the email address associated with the forum account, so my firewall blocking theory would be rubbish (MAS purchases are surely whitelisted) and being stuck on 1.6.0 is most likely a MAS Apple ID account issue that means the update is not being seen.

Accessing from a different store (split)

Patrick Connor replied to pixelstuff's topic in Customer Service, Accounts and Purchasing

This conversation belongs in the forum dedicated to purchases, not the launch announcement, so I have split it off.

Is there a Resource Manager in Designer 1.7?

Patrick Connor replied to Clanks's topic in Designer Beta on Mac

Resource manager and baseline grid were only temporarily available in beta builds. All beta builds state that you should not use them for real work and you should work on copies of important documents. The application of a baseline grid into a beta designer document is a good example of exactly why that warning exists. These features have not appeared in release builds, do your documents made in release builds should not be affected. If you want I can remove the beta elements from your documents as a one off process. Attach them here

.afdesigner file I made a week ago won't open

Patrick Connor replied to ClareFree's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)

@ClareFree I suspect your firewall is blocking just Affinity Designer from seeing the internet and so knowing there is an update. Instructions for updating your Affinity Designer for Windows (from the Affinity store) are at the bottom of the 1.7.2 update announcement This is very good advice from Carl123

Patrick Connor replied to ClareFree's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows)

@ClareFree I am sure @Sean P can look into this, but can you please tell me why you are using 1.6.0 and not a more recent build? Also what version of Photo do you have that can open this file? Also what operating system are you using please?
