I don't quite understand. So what you're saying is that actually the German shortcut list is not correct? Shouldn't Serif update it then as there are surely a lot of German speaking users that use the qwertz layout?

In Affinity Photo, macOS, german keyboard layout and display language, [ and ] are the default keys for brush size. They can be accessed via cmd + 5 resp. 6. However the shortcut is not working. If i change it to e.g. +, it is working.

I’m using the default settings

Was the file of any help?

Thanks for the reply! I've attached the file (I've deleted some things to make it smaller, but that shouldn't change the issue, e.g. I've mostly deleted trees.) ExamplePaleAffinity.afphoto

I've got an Affinity file with the default Print settings. I think it's RGB/8 - but how do I check that? If I export the file to pdf (same color space as document) it becomes significantly paler. What is my mistake? I've tried putting a blank rectangle in the backgroung (before that it was transparent). The colors became slightly darker, but still way too pale. If I export as jpeg, everything is fine. I've also checked inserting the jpg in a Publisher document and exporting it as a pdf - that works perfectly fine. So there is something odd going on with the Photo export.

Thanks, that's a great idea! Also how do you make sure the distance between picture frames is the same? Is there a simple way to e.g. snap it to 20mm?

Hi, I would like to create a screen presentation in Publisher, which is converted to a print layout (different format!, eg 16:10 vs Din A3) at a later stage. Do you have a recommendation for how to do this most efficiently? I’d like to keep all pictures and simply adjust their size and position where necessary. by the way, even with linked files published on my mac sometimes eats up disc space like crazy, 50gb for a small project. Is this a bug? Is there a workaround? I've seen that I can switch from pixel to mm and change the layout size, however if initially it was a Web layout, there only seem to be web options (eg screen resolution) and I cannot select DIN A4. Also I'm not sure yet how I can best fit images to the new layout. The scaling option is useless because it takes pictures out of proportion, without scaling I need to adjust every single image?! I'm also confused regarding text frames in a Master frame. Is it possible to define the font,. font size, etc there such that it is always kept for all layout pages using this master frame?
