[Version 1.9.1 Update]

@walt.farrell

Thanks so much! I didn't realize that there would be an even newer version out so quickly since I just updated just a few weeks prior. Ugh!

[Version 1.9.1 Update]

Hi!

My Affinity software (Designer, Photo and Publisher) versions are 1.9.0.932 

Screenshot shows pertinent computer system info for this Inspiron 3668 computer:

 

Thank you in advance!

[Version 1.9.1 Update]

I get the 'New Version Available' on all three Affinity programs even after upgrading to their latest versions. Surely there must be a way for this message to stop appearing every time their programs are opened. How about a patch or something? I'm on a PC running Windows 10.

Please Affinity, you're our only hope! (Insert Princess Leia from Star Wars meme here) 😉

Have you already tried deactivating hardware acceleration in APhoto? Another source of errors are in 99% outdated / faulty drivers and missing system updates!

And what if you install the new 1.9.2.1035? 

Hello, I've just tried your recommendation and it works! I was able to bring all of the Atmosphere content pack into APhoto. I've even tried some of them. Hopefully disabling the hardware acceleration doesn't have any adverse effects in the future. Thank you so much!

The Atmosphere content pack is crashing my system, not just Affinity Photo (v1.9) when I try to install the pack. I've tried 3 times to install the pack, with no luck. I'm on a Dell computer Intel(R) Core i5-7400 CPU @3.00GHz. 12 GB RAM and 64 bit OS, Windows 10 Home. I've never had problems running any graphics programs at all until now. Please advise. Thanks!

[Affinity Degrading Clipboard Data and Reducing Quality]

Oh, no! This is not good. I was just working on a document in Affinity Publisher. I couldn't save the document for some reason as the save options were greyed out. I copied the text, restarted Publisher and pasted into a new document. It wasn't live copy anymore, but an image! All my work was lost somehow. Affinity, what can we do in this situation! I'm using the latest version, 1.9 on a windows machine.

[Tablet Stylus Accuracy Issue]

Hello my Friend!

First off, thank you for responding so quickly!

I restarted Affinity Designer this morning (perhaps I've had it open for too long and the program simply didn't "read" the brushes properly? Only a guess) and the brushes are working perfectly! I'm so excited! I was even more excited when I saw that you had a 'Kirby Krackle' brush! I wish I had this years ago when inking space backgrounds with a circle template and Rapidograph pens! And Zip-A-Tone, too! This is my Christmas present to myself!

Thank you so much!

[Tablet Stylus Accuracy Issue]

Hello, I've just purchased your brushes and am currently trying to use it in Affinity Designer on a Veikk tablet. The tablet works fine, as I've used it with other applications with no problem. However, the brushes don't seem to work properly in AD. Line widths are not varying (from thin to thick and thick to thin). Are there settings that I have to tweak? I thought that they would work properly upon installing.

Thank You,

[OCR feature]

I use Abbyy FineReader https://pdf.abbyy.com (Mac/Win) within DevonThink Pro which converts PDFs (including embedded images) into rtf, Word, etc. The results are pretty good, and typically require minimal clean-up depending on the quality of the embedded images.

Thanks so much, very appreciated!

[OCR feature]

I think that an OCR feature would be a great addition to Affinity software but do realize that it would take quite a while to implement. As a recent Affinity convert (I don't like Adobe's subscription fees) I don't have full editing capabilities in Acrobat anymore. I also don't have an older version of Acrobat to use. 

If someone could suggest a standalone OCR program (NOT Adobe) I would be very grateful.

GO AFFINITY!!!

If it is a multi layered document you also could make a flattened copy of your selection:
Edit > Copy Flattened
and then
File > New From Clipboard
 

Thanks so much for this. It works for me, quick and simple. Cheers!

[Copying properties from another object]

I totally agree. I've spent over 20 years with Adobe products, mainly Illustrator. I bought all 3 of Affinity's products and will continue to support them. I just hope they make changes soon to not only keep up with Adobe, but surpass them. Subscription fees, who needs that? 😃

[Copying properties from another object]

Hello, I would like to know if this issue regarding a similar tool to Adobe Illustrator's eyedropper tool is being addressed. I find that the workaround is quite time consuming. Thank you for your attention to this matter and I hope to hear back from you soon.
