Patrick Gilmour started following Publisher crashes when opening files and Affinity Publisher Crashing on 2.3.1
-
I think I'm having the same issue. I have a relatively large file that crashes Publisher every time I try to open it since I upgraded to 2.3.x I'm on Mac Sonoma, but... I have also found a weird workaround. @Brian_J might be worth trying this on your file too. So, when I double-click the file and it opens, it shows the artwork in the Publisher window for a second to two then it crashes the app. However, if I do the same then quickly, while the content displays but before the expected crash, click on one of the page icons in the Pages (not Master Pages) panel, then click on another then another the app does not crash. Totally weird, but it works every time. And when I don't, it crashes every time. Note: Do not double-click a page icon, as the app still crashes if I do that. Just click once, then another. Curious to know if this workaround works for you too, @Brian_J -Patrick

Rename a Live file in Publisher 2 iPad
Patrick Gilmour replied to Patrick Gilmour's topic in Affinity on iPad Questions
Answer: swipe left with a finger across the file icon on the main window and tap on the first icon that is revealed. You can’t seem to do this with a mouse so I was missing it. -
Hi, Can someone please explain how to name a Live file in Publisher 2 for iPad in the Main Window (or elsewhere)? Long press on the file icon does nothing—no menu. Thanks, Pat

Well said - agree 100% In Photoshop, I also regularly CMD+clicked on a layer to quickly select all its contents then Crop to Selection. I taught Photoshop for years as an ACE/ACI—this was always included in the course. As you say, it would be the best of both worlds to have this as a simple to select action.

In which case, a simple solution would be to provide an option to "Convert Marquee to Crop". Maybe cmd/ctrl+click Crop tool. Then by hitting Return the crop would be applied and—hopefully—everyone would be happy. Very often a user will be using selection tools to create a marquee that they want to convert quickly to a crop. In my own use, I'd often cmd+click on a Layer to define its contents as the area I want to define the crop. Maybe it was pixels. Maybe it was an object I drew for the purpose. I taught Photoshop for many years as a Certified Instructor/Expert. 'Crop to Selection' was always in the course content because it was so useful.
