Tried it all none of it works I shall dwell in darkness forever

tried it with libre office unfortunately the carriage returns are all messed up

ya, i have multiple text frames. i need to export them all

I need to extract the text out of my Affinity .afpub file. possible?

LETS ADD A FEATURE

I asked OpenAI's DALL-E2 to draw a picture of a kitten who cannot understand the odd UI windows placement

In Photoshop, they use the Menu heading "Windows" to encompass both uses. E.g. when you click on Windows there, you can interact with any open window document, as well as any app window (tool palette) its very logical My cat has considered writing a firm letter in regard to this oversight.

Photoshop lists all the app windows under the Menu button called "Windows" Why doesn't Affinity Publisher do that? I'm sick of messing with a sub menu. And my cat doesn't like it either.

There is a "background color" for a Master Page? Or, you mean, I have to draw a black rectangle and that's my background color?

right thats what i'm doing now but i assumed there might be a variable called "PAGE_COLOR" where i could just set the page to black or grey or pink. It seemed like this would be an obvious feature to have on a Publisher app....

YIKES There's a text frame indent AND a "decoration" indent. well that's a new one for me THANKS It is kinda awkward having a blue bounding box that doesn't conform to the "decoration box" But at least the margins are the same.

i dont care about the text i just want to turn the page black

E.g. if I have one page in the middle of my book that calls for all black (with white text on top), then whats the best way to do that? Currently, i'm just drawing a rectangle and placing it below the white text.

When people have a fill, the AUTOSIZE is really important. Because you want to have an equal amount of spacing on the TOP LEFT RIGHT BOTTOM of the text body. E.g. if you put a white square of text over a black and white photo, currently you have to eyeball the width and height of your textbox. Can someone add this to the feature request?

Ya, at least ESCAPE key should clear search results. they're driving me nuts Also, after you press ENTER, the search box is no longer focused. So, if you start typing a new query, you'll be typing IN YOUR DOCUMENT. I almost just lost a bunch of text. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Woot thank you JOE

i just dragged the jpeg into Affinity Publisher originally

Backspace doesn't clear them Delete doesn't clear them Escape doesn't clear them ...

Assume I have a JPEG in my Affinity document. Then, (while Affinity is open) I use Photoshop to make some changes in the JPEG, and I save the JPEG. Now, how can I direct Affinity to RELOAD / REFRESH this JPEG image in Affinity? Currently, I can use the Replace Image button to hunt for the JPEG. But the path and filename of the JPEG have not changed. I just want to click REFRESH to refresh the image in Affinity -- e.g. as you do in MS Word. Way to do that? Thanks!

please do it

thanks that worked! is there a way to do it without having to hunt and click 2 dots though? would be nice if it was in the context menu (right click) of the text box

E.g. i want to press an AUTOFIT button to wrap the bounding box around the text -- so i don't have to do it manually each time. Does an AUTOFIT button exist? <see image>

Oops figured it out. I created the text with Artistic Text Tool Not with Frame Text Tool So Insets don't work when Artistic Text Tool is selected. Though Fill and Stroke do. Might be cool if the Text Frame box would indicate when an Artistic Text Tool is selected. Especially when the user clicks the Insets spinner boxes.

I just want to add some padding around my text box. Why are "insets" disabled? <see image>
