    You can move a Frame Text layer, while you are editing it, by moving the mouse pointer over the edge of the frame until you see a ‘four-way arrow’ mouse pointer and then dragging the frame – see attached video.

    Thank you for that, that will certainly speed up my workflow. Not been using Publisher that long so still finding my way around it

  2. @v_kyr I did try this in a Macro but then quickly realised that what you had said is correct which is very frustrating.

    If you set the Scale option in the Macro Library panel to Min Fit, I am sure it worked every time on any image. I never tried it it but I also think this option is Global across all Macros in the Library which if it is could lead to issues for other Macros in there.

    Do you know without me doing a bunch of testing if the Scale is Global to all.

  3. With some of the software I create, I am thinking of supplying a PDF help type document for the end user so I thought about using Affinity Publisher.

    For those who have experience in this field, what do you suggest as a a document size with all these different devices we have these days.

    Do you go with A4 Portrait, Landscape or even some other size.

    It was much easier back in 1989 when we all used 640 x 480 monitors :)

    When you record the macro, and do a Paste, the contents of the clipboard at that moment is recorded in the macro. That is what will be pasted, whenever someone runs the macro. it does not simply record "do a paste". It records "paste <this exact thing>"

    So therefore you can safely give someones else the Macro and it will run correctly ?

    @v_kyr I have a question regarding this please.

    If you copy the text and then start a Macro recording to paste and then export the macro and give it to someone else, will it still work ?

    If the answer is yes, then I am unable to figure out how the Macro knows what to paste if there is nothing in the clipboard.
