Hi, I've been working with Illustrator for over 20 years now, I've been at Affinity for 2 years with the designer that I like to use now, but sometimes I have real problems with the function, like selecting and positioning node points in an object that was cut out of another (typical for logos or icons) for a better understanding here's a movie. The question, how can I select the Q and position it even better later? ––––––––––––– Hi, ich arbeite nun seit über ca. 20 Jahren mit Illustrator, bin seit 2 Jahren bei Affinity mit dem Designer dabei, den ich inzwischen sehr gerne nutze, habe aber hin und wieder echte Probleme mit der Funktion, wie zB die Auswahl und Positionierung von Knotenpunkten in einem Objekt, dass aus einem anderen herausgeschnitten wurde (typisch bei Logos oder Icons) für ein besser Verständnis hier ein Film. Die Frage, wie kann ich das Q auswählen und später noch besser positionieren? qa.mov

Oh just a quick info, if you want to adjust the bottom margin like me with 21,039mm but the number always spring back to 21mm, then you should change that in the prefs > User Interface – decimal Places... 3 for mm, than the number can adjust more precise to the baseline grid

super, thanks for the Grid/column support, works well Just the performance is a bit lame, scale a Textbox and a few seconds later the box change the size. Not what I expected (I still hope that the performance in the final release is smooth like the good old QuarkXPress 3.3.2,)

Hi, just updated to the new version (Built 157) and the colum system works really well. Thank you Serif. Only the performance is not so good. If I have just a double page with 4 or 5 Textboxes. Change a textbox size needs more then a second that the box follow my mouse. But it's a beta

At this point I very interested in the Feedback from Serif and the Puplisher Team, what is they opinion ? Is there any reason that it isn't implemented and is it planed to implemented?

Hi, as an oldschool graphic designer all my Books, Magazins and Flyers start's with a intelligent grid thats give me the reference, that all sites/styles etc in the same manner and style. I always prefer a 12 column grid or a 9 column grid. Thats give me flexibility but also some borders for a consistent style. I'am so strange that I love to perfect the position of the columns without decimal points, so I have the posibility for a fast perfect position with coordinates. For example see the screenshot. Without this grid I also can use MS Word for a Layout (thats also can Handle grid in a Textbox, but this is not a flexible and fast way to work), so please add a column grid option. Oh and if you use Quark 3.32 as a Basic reference would be awesome, I never worked so fast as with this Program thats all reduced to the basics. thanks
