Endnote numbers are all 0 in frame except the first
MikeTO replied to marbel's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
I think there's still an issue here, at least with the original document in this thread. Here's another test doc based on it saved from 2.6.3 beta. test4.afpub Open document Add a new endnote with Document-Wide settings to the frame on page 1 - it will be numbered 3 Add a new endnote with Document-Wide settings to the frame on page 2 - it will be numbered 0 Undo that, reapply the master to page 2 and add a new endnote - it will be numbered 0 Undo that, clear the master from page 2 and then apply it again before adding a new endnote - now it will be numbered 0 So there's something going on with this text frame and I don't know how it got into this state. But if Gabriella's document also had endnotes reset to 0, there's still a lurking issue that can cause this to happen. @Gabriella Would it be possible for you to share a test document showing the issue so that Serif could look for commonalities between them? -
I don't see any issues with your file. When I open it, I see the space before of 43 pt at the top of the left column as expected. There is no space above any other paragraph, not counting the blank paragraphs which I assume was just because this was a quick test file. There is no space at the top of the second column because that is the continuation of the paragraph from the previous page. Space Before only adds space before the start of a new paragraph. If you want space before the start of text in a text frame, you should use the Text Frame panel and set Insets > Top instead of using Space Before.

That page will show Windows shortcuts for Windows users so the link will work for everybody. You can also toggle between showing Mac and Windows shortcuts on help pages by clicking on the body of the page to activate it and then pressing Option/Alt + Left or Right Arrow. Cheers

It's difficult to know without seeing the definition for Base, but try setting Space After to 0, Space Between Same Styles to off, and Sum Space Before and After to Off. Sometimes it's best to explicitly define all of these options rather than leaving them on No Change. I tried these settings and it worked fine for me. Good luck

I didn't mean to imply that you could search for index markers with Find and Replace - you can by cutting and pasting one into the Find field but that will find only that specific marker, not all index markers. But if you need to index Apples, you can search for Apples just as easily with Find and Replace as with the Index panel's Find in Document feature. I don't add index markers with the panel. Most of us use a keyboard shortcut for speed. I've changed the shortcut from the default which requires some keyboard gymnastics to Cmd+Shift+I (Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows) but you can use whatever you want. This works well when you're finding words with Find and Replace. There is no way to do that. Your best bet would be to leave section headings on and edit the Index Section Heading style and change the font colour's opacity to transparent. To change the spacing, change the style's font size, leading, space before, or space after as required. Cheers

Find in Document: There are no controls for this feature, you'll have to use the Find and Replace panel Initial capitals: If by this you mean the Section Headings, just deselect Include Section Headings in the panel. Group sub-topics on same line: No, it won't do that automatically, you'd have to format it manually after generating the index. You could probably use a GREP search to do this but I'd have to think about how to do that since you'd only want to find paragraph breaks formatted as Index Entry 2 that are followed by an alpha character formatted as Index Entry 2, and not as Index Entry 1. Notes: If a note has an index mark it will be included in the index. If you're using Find in Document, ensure you're not finding instances in notes. To avoid this, use Find and Replace instead of Find in Document because then you can specify which text style you'll searching for.

Break page command
MikeTO replied to GIOVANNI ACANFORA's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Yes. Choose Text > Insert > Breaks and then choose one of the options. -
Hi and welcome to the forums. You do have a powerful computer so typing shouldn't be that slow. I find it sluggish on my M4 Pro Mac but it's just a tad sluggish and not as bad as you're reporting. This makes it difficult to narrow down the cause. I'm fairly certain it has something to do with your master page setup. I removed most of the master page content, leaving just the text frames. Could you test this version and let us know if typing is faster now for you? If it is, I'll try to narrow it down further. Note that I don't have the font or linked resources so I'm not seeing the document as you're seeing it, but it's unlikely that the font or the linked resources are the source of the speed issue. test.afpub
