Modifier Key Customization
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
We can customize the modifier keys in VectorStyler and in free open-source software like Blender/ Godot, so we should also be able to do it in Affinity -

I must've been drunk when I was scaling the objects. Could we change the Ctrl-drag to Alt-drag, for resizing an object from its center?

To proportionally scale an object or to keep the object aspect ratio when scaling, we can hold the Alt key in Affinity Publisher. Could we change the modifier key to Shift?

Special Character (Character Map) Problems on WIndows
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
I tried to enable Num Lock as @walt.farrell suggested and I can create the special characters with the hotkeys (Alt + 0XXX keys). Apparently we have to enable Num Lock in Affinity software, which is not necessary in other software- 14 replies

Special Character (Character Map) Problems on WIndows
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
I don't think another app was interfering with the Character Map hotkeys, because I can use the hotkeys in other applications, apart from Microsoft Word. I have deactivated Microsoft PowerToys, yet the problem persists- 14 replies

Special Character (Character Map) Problems on WIndows
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
The special characters also appear as outlined boxes with Bodoni MT, Book Antiqua and Times New Roman fonts in all Affinity software on my WIndows 11 system. As for my keyboard layout, I set the [Time & language] > [Typing] > [Advanced Keyboard Settings] > I tried both [Use Language List] and [English (United States) - US] options- 14 replies

Special Character (Character Map) Problems on WIndows
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
It's weird, because I tried it with Arial, Bodoni MT, Book Antiqua and Times New Roman fonts. All those hotkeys I mentioned generated outlined rectangles instead of the correct special characters in all Affinity software- 14 replies

Tab Stop Ruler for Designer
gotanidea replied to gotanidea's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
I thought Publisher is more akin to Adobe InDesign. I was used to make layout design in Adobe Illustrator for individual pages and Adobe InDesign was just used to combine them -
I cannot insert special characters (Character Map) in all Affinity apps on Windows, using the Alt + 0149, Alt + 163, Alt + 169, Alt + 174 and Alt + 176 hotkeys. I can do it in other applications (Notepad, Notepad++, WPS Office, Libre Office and VectorStyler), except Microsoft Word. My operating system is Windows 11 Home Single Language 64-bit (10.0, Build 22000). This is the first time I installed Affinity software on my PC and the version is 2.0.3. I have restarted the PC after the installation is done.
