[Crash after edit standard table format]

I just tried if with hardware acceleration off and it happened again. Thanks for the link! I searched already for something like it but used the word bug report, when I searched for it and didn't find anything.

What kind of information does the crash report contain? I uploaded it, but I don't like that I can't see, what it does contain.

[Crash after edit standard table format]

• OS: Windows 10
• Hardware acceleration is on
• Version: 1.10.4.1198

 

Steps to recreate the bug:

1. Create a new document.
2. Create a table.
3. Apply the standard table format.
4. Edit the offset of the border of the standard table format.
5. Reset the standard table format or edit name or offset of the format.

What happens? The program crashes.

[Change Title of PDF]

My suggestion to Affinity on this is: please give this title field a higher priority, move in into view: move the inputfield for it to the document settings. To me that's the place to look for such a thing.

I agree. That was also the place where I expected it to be and where I was looking first, before using the search engine.

[Wrong order in table of content]

Thanks for your explanation, @walt.farrell and @MikeTO! I understand. Still, from a user's point of view, who doesn't know how the entries are ordered in the TOC, it may be weird and seems to be a bug. But, I guess, it would be more difficult, to implement it to look at the layout because there may be cases, where it isn't clear, which element should come first.

[Wrong order in table of content]

• Affinity Publisher 1.10.4.1198
• Windows 10
• reproducable: yes

 

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Create a text box with a text style (e.g. header 1)
2. Duplicate it and replace the text, so you can see the bug
3. Create a table of content, where only elements with text style header 1 are shown
4. Change the order of the text boxes, so that the first one is behind the second one.
5. Switch the content of the text boxes.
6. Update the table of content.

Result: The order in the table of content doesn't reflect the order of the elements in the document (see the attached screenshot).

Expected result: The order should reflect the order of the elements in the document.

 

I hope, my description is understandable🙂

[Disable spell checking for citations]

Thank you @Old Bruce replacing is a good idea for a workaround!

[Disable spell checking for citations]

That's what I meant in the first post (to apply a style), but it would be very inefficient because I use English words in many places in the text (which is dozens of pages long🙃). I hoped that there would be an easier way.

[Disable spell checking for citations]

If such a function could only be activated manually, that would not be a problem  It would be helpful, if you know that there are only cases of citation, where you don't want the spell checker to be enabled.

In my case I write a German text and use English words in some places. I use quotation marks for them because obviously they are not words of the language I use for the text. And because the language was set to German in Publisher the spell checker underlines all these words with red. It's not the end of the world, but annoying, if I use the checklist for important errors.

[Disable spell checking for citations]

Thanks. Using quotation marks is some kind of telling that I want to cite something  I thought maybe there could be an option to disable spell checking for everything that's between quotation marks.

[Disable spell checking for citations]

Hello,

is it possible to disable spell checking for citations? When I write something like

Quote

"some text that shouldn't be checked"

I don't want that the content between the quotation marks will be checked. One possible way would be to use a text-style, but that would be very uncomfortable because I would have to apply it to each single citation. And when I apply a style to a whole text, my whole work would be in vain. Is there any other way?

[Please remove Google Captchas]

Hello,

I really like Affinity and their products. What I don't like is that Google Captchas are used on the website and the forums, when I want to log in. They are annoying, but - what's worse - they are not privacy-respecting (and not compatible with GDPR). I suggest that you remove the Google Captchas or replace them with privacy-respecting captchas (like for example hCaptcha).

 

Greetings,

Ociel
