    JuanCDC reacted to Emagineer in I have Deleted V2 and Gone Back to V1   
    Well, I guess saying we love the interface is avoiding the question--it doesn't engage meaningfully with the points raised, it just dismisses them as a whole. It does provide information when you to say that, but addressing the points is really the point.
    I personally have not yet installed v2, so I'm not defending or criticising. I'm just suggesting that to be helpful we have to consider the points that Gary raises.
    For example, he mentions that the new icons look like something from a GameBoy app designed for 8-year olds--oh, ok, maybe I will install it then.

    Confirmed, the issue with typing a value into the field field and then clicking back in the document is fixed. Publisher now accepts the value and adds units to it.
    Gabe was referring to the other issue, the one I reported above.
    Thanks for the video. I use a small screen and keep my studios narrow which explains why I couldn't duplicate the OP's issue until now, the one with the Leading label appearing over top of the field. I didn't even realize that's what the issue was, I thought it was the issue with double text appearing in a field. Your video makes it clear and I'm seeing the same bug now in 1736 on Ventura. I don't think this one has been logged yet since I kind of sidetracked the conversation.

    This is not fixed as of 2.1.0.1736, but it does depend on how wide the studio is:

    JuanCDC reacted to gerlos in Help with export file names in Affinity Designer   
    Hello everyone,
    I really love Export Persona in Affinity Designer - I work a lot with several image sizes for social networks, so I made up a template with several slices, one for each of my usual "destinations".
    I've found that I can easily put slice name and sizes in exported image file name, and this helps me a lot when exporting several slices, and it's really great. 
     
    Do you know if there's a way to put current Affinity Designer file name in the exported image file name? 
    Or, as an alternative, is there a way to set "global" user variables, that I can automatically put in file names when I export slices?
     
    thanks in advance,
    gerlos

    I also could greatly use this feature. Without it, Export is helpful, but not amazing.

    JuanCDC got a reaction from Mithferion in Logo Exporter Template File   
    Hey All!
    Been working on a template for exporting logo files for clients and thought I'd share it here so we can maybe work on improving it together?
    FILE: Logo Exporter Template CMYK V1.afdesign
    The idea is that the export persona is already set up to create folders and files for the different parts of the logo and the different colour models.
    What works:
    Folders and colour gamuts are exported easily and swiftly (more on this below) It's easy to resize the artboards to fit a new logo. It saves me a generous amount of time! Cheaper than other plugins for other apps with similar functionalities. 😉 --
    A few things I'm struggling that could do some help with:
    1. File naming
    The naming convention I am after is the following: "clientname-logoelement-colour-gamut.extension"
    I managed pretty much everything, by renaming the artboards, and manually updating the export slices. But I can't find a way to replace "clientname" with the name of the afdesign file.
    2. Colur gamuts / modes
    When working form a RGB afdesign file there are limitation on exporting certain files to CMYK - for example EPS only export in the original afdesign file setup.
    But when working from a CMYK base file (like the attached) the file conversion options are more friendly.
    A NOTE ON THIS: Although we all know that is best practice to adjust these conversions manually I'm trying to make something that will save me time. Perhaps there is b better way to automate this with the use or symbols or global colours - I'm yet to discover (new to affinity here)
    3. Symbols / global colours
    I'm not very versed on these yet, so would appreciate any suggestions on how using these can help the exporting process, colour settings.
     
     
    Have a go at using it and hope it saves you some time!

    +1 on this feature request!

    I'm pretty sure we all very much like Designer. That's why everyone is so vocal about it.
    If everyone hated Designer then nobody would care about this missing basic feature.

    JuanCDC reacted to Stephen_H in Can we just get the basics that are missing, and not worry about unique, cutting edge features for now?   
    I forgot to add another problem with swatches not carrying over to another document via copy-n-paste... if your swatch is a SPOT color, the SPOT swatch is left behind. Try and re-make that swatch from your pasted object and you'll only create a CMYK swatch. Your SPOT color is gone for good.
    This is a blinding oversight that should be treated as a bug fix rather than a missing feature.
