Nita Reed reacted to thomaso in No Forum Help on V1?
Meanwhile this V1 subforum gets used also by V2 users, to add their V2 questions / report V2 issues that continue from a V1 topic.
This makes this V1 "archive" as an explicite subforum a bit confusing and possibly obsolete or "wrong" in the explicite V1 section of Questions – and I wonder if there would be any disadvantage if both would be in one / in the current V2 parent forum. Most of the V1 threads would be sorted simply by their creation / the last response date and thus appear in the full topic list accordingly, with the old V1-only at the end, @Patrick Connor? The advantage could be that users wouldn't need to check at two places (the parent V2 and the separate V1).
edit: Or what if the V1 archive would be set to "read only", maybe with the recently modified V1 threads moved to V2 before closing V1?

If you want to ask a question, you just created a topic in the right place.
If you want to report a bug, you would do that in https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/120-reports-of-bugs-in-affinity-version-1-applications/
If you want to request an application improvement, you would do that in https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/52-feedback-suggestions/ but probably in the V2 section there, as V1 is not being enhanced.

Nita Reed reacted to RichardMH in Affinity Photo - Crashing
Crash reports should be in
%AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports\reports
If you post one someone more clever than me may be able to see what is happening.

Nita Reed reacted to Carlitox in Affinity Designer Plugins
We have developed some plugins for Adobe products (C++, js CEP and UXP). It would be very great for our users if we could make plugins for Affinity as well.
CEP is very slow. What takes 5s in C++ with take 5mins in CEP. No kidding. UXP is faster than CEP but still slower than C++. Programing plugins in Adobe has a lot pain points. They are improving with UXP. But UXP has still a long way to go before being mature, unless they invest more in it. And their SDK needs a lot of work that they are not willing to do. Short term profits are more important and they are not challenged. It's a great SDK, but it didn't evolve much in 15 years. There are many things they could do to make it amazing and to facilitate greatly the programing of performant and advanced plugins.
This is a great opportunity for Affinity. Although I don't know the market disposition, it seems from experience that a good number of companies relay more and more on automation internally and custom tools. And we are not even talking about what programmers could unleash for all users if they have the proper tools and ecosystem...
If Affinity could challenge Adobe in this space and offer us a better plugin experience than Adobe and others are, that would be so fantastic. Creatives could benefits from new tools that devs are reluctant to make with Adobe system. And the whole Affinity world will be bolstered. Im so excited just thinking about it!

Um...soooo Adobe? Was that not the entity that Serif directly competes with on PC, MAC and IPAD?
You were stating that there were too many other competitors on Android...not just Adobe. Or did I misunderstand?
-
Nita Reed got a reaction from focuslocked in Affinity for Android
We are letting Serif know what would be good for us.
This is, to me, a suggestion box... With respect, I was not really interested in all the devil's advocate (bordering on negative nelly) opinions. I get it...you all do not need or want it on Android. Noted. I, personally, do not buy/use Apple products. I love Affinity...and I would love to have access to Affinity on a tablet. It's really that simple to me. I don't think I'm alone in that, either.
It's my hope that they will see that there are enough expressing a desire for Android, they can then determine if it's viable.
The rest of this is rather depressing, really.

Nita Reed reacted to pixelstuff in Affinity for Android
I don't think anyone here is suggesting Serif does something that they can't fully support. Like everything else in the Feature Request & Suggestion section, suggestions are made in the hopes that Serif likes the idea, feels it is worth their time, AND decides they can fully support it.
Personally, I like seeing discussion on the pros and cons of different ideas, even if we don't have all the inside information to know how Serif would weigh in on the issue.

Nita Reed reacted to pixelstuff in Affinity for Android
Ummm. All you did here was name the single competitor that was already on all the other markets when Serif decided to enter those.
The fact is that other than Adobe products, which are too heavily dependent on Adobe's Creative Cloud, there isn't a high end photo editor on Android. All of the others seem to be basic cropping and tinting apps.
The only real question is whether all the Android tablet and Chromebook owners would want a good photo editor.

Who provided for those who developed all the existing Serif software? Seems to me...with that perspective...Serif never would have existed...they wouldn't have even tried.
-
Nita Reed reacted to pixelstuff in Affinity for Android
As if they haven't successfully done that in three other markets already.

Nita Reed reacted to Alfred in Still Pixelizing
Your zoom level is 500%. Change it to 100% for a representative view of the end result.

Are you sure you weren’t using Designer previously?
In Photo the document is always shown as it would look in pixels – a bit like Designer’s Pixel View Mode.
-
Nita Reed reacted to GarryP in Still Pixelizing
Photo always shows the image in Pixels, and you can’t change that accidentally or otherwise, so anything you were working on in Photo would have looked pixelated if you zoom in.
See my attached image of your previously ‘non-pixelated’ image as seen zoomed-in.
In your second screenshot image I can’t tell which document you are editing, is it the “KAT -black” or “Pumpkin shades” one?

Nita Reed reacted to Alfred in Still Pixelizing
Still not displayed at the 100% zoom level.
This is what I see when I zoom in:

Nita Reed reacted to carl123 in Still Pixelizing
Alfred said change zoom to 100% you are viewing at 150%, so yes it will still look pixelated
-
Nita Reed reacted to telemax in Still Pixelizing
Double-click the magnifying glass icon and you get a zoom of 100%
-
Nita Reed reacted to GarryP in Still Pixelizing
Unless your image was specifically designed to be seen nicely at different sizes you will always have some issues when you resize or zoom them, up or down from 100%.
Software, Photo or web software, or whatever, has to squeeze or stretch the pixels in the image into the space you display it in and that will cause it to look different.

Can you point us to one of the pixelated profile pics that folk are mentioning to you?
