Not sure I fully understand what you are doing but if you are just replacing text with coloured circles then this may work
One way...
Put the words you want in colour in the colour you want them
Like this...
"This is a <red icon>, this is a <blue icon>."
Then any "text/character" you replace them with will already have those colours
You can use a wingding font (or similar) to get a circle character
So then do a find & replace ...<red icon> with that Wingding font/character
<blue icon> with that Wingding font/character -

This is not a bug, it is simply not possible! How is the software supposed to know which tool you want to activate with the key?
You can bind the same shortcut to two different tools and each press will toggle between them

Which two tools are you trying to bind and to what shortcut key?

The dropdown menu under Artboard: Size: Document shows neither my presets nor any Print or Press Ready options,

It exists in Publisher and Designer under the Layer menu

If you search the Publisher help for "Tile" does the information presented there not do what you want to do?

Hard to say without seeing the Affinity document but it may be "snapping candidates"
So, try going to your snapping settings and untick "Show Snapping Candidates"
If not that, please upload the document that shows the issue

Can you upload a Publisher document with some text that displays the problem?

@christerdk I know you like patterned backgrounds but sometimes plain ones can showcase your work better. Just try different colours and pick whatever you like or whatever compliments the particular colours of the sourdough you are uploading to your social media. (Also, I think that image can benefit from a touch more sharpening but that may just be my aging eyes)

what if I want to remove the shadow from this picture and make that area of the mountain look sunny is that possible?
I just used the Clone Brush Tool to clone some of the sunnier sides of the mountain over the shadow area
Hopefully the only things that will notice it's technically not the same mountain range will be a few mountain goats

Since V2 (different to V1) allows the colour swatches within the tools panel in 1-column width you possibly might be able to move the icon for these swatches up to the row of tools (to save blank space in the bottom toolbar this way).
It would be nice to move the "colour swatches within the tools panel" to the same row of the tools but I have not found a way to do that (or just to delete it entirely, if required)

save and apply master presets containing ALL of the settings, and batch converting files. This is currently painful as it has to be done manually per file.
You can batch process RAW files, see here for details...

Rasterize does not typically "combine all 'included' layers into one single Pixel layer"
They remain as individual layers
Unless (for example) they are in a group and you rasterise the group
Can you give more details as to where you are seeing your quoted behaviour when rasterising layers?

Can you tell us the required file path & edits … or was your screenshot a simulation, as in this previous feature request?
It's not a simulation, the file you need to edit is Tools.xml in the %appdata% folder structure on Windows EXE version
Not sure if the Windows MSIX version is in same location and I don't have a clue where that file will be on Macs
This is the line you need to change (I set mine to 40, which is the maximum number of Tools I could get on my screen (different screen sizes/resolutions may change that number)
<DockedColumns>40</DockedColumns>

Now, just to be sure - there's no secret way to open two tools panels, right?
Not that I'm aware of at the moment
Though Studio Presets will allow you to specify which tools are displayed on the Tools Panel. So, if you just wanted a subset of tools when using the Wacom, thus taking up less space, you could do that
Unfortunately, Studio Presets do not allow you to specify the position of the Tools Panel on screen or else that might have also assisted you. Hopefully that will come in a future update/upgrade
24 minutes ago, nickbatz said:I wonder whether I can program a macro to do all of that. Hm...
Not by using the inbuilt macros functions in APhoto but there are other 3rd party macro software packages that work on Windows and Macs that might be able to do what you want.

You can also have a Horizontal, undocked tools panel (top or bottom) for those that prefer it that way, have a lot of tools, need/prefer more horizontal workspace or don't like scrolling the vertical one
(Requires a minor edit to one of the config files, the location of which may/will vary depending on if you are using MSIX, EXE or Mac/Windows)

Though you can specify Custom in the Export dialog, there does not seem to be any way of choosing a specific palette in that case.
I think Custom may have provided the ability to use a custom set/palette of colours but as you say that has a bug and has never worked.
@everyone
Could this somehow be done using a gradient map adjustment using sharp transitions (i.e. no gradients) between say, 4 custom colours as shown in example below? It sounds like it should work but the results look odd (in some places) even though the colours do appear to be restricted to the 4 chosen colours
(Original image on the left, 4 colour image on the right)

P.S.: Is there a reason why the Vectorscope is only available inside the Develop Persona? It'd be incredibly useful for the standard "Photo" persona as well.
It is available in the Photo persona

Export--Selection area or selection only, refers to Layer selections (Selected Layers) not Pixel selections (on the Desktop version)
Not sure how you say you got it to work previously but I don't have an iPad, someone else may be able to clarify one way or another

How can the selection only be exported?
Are you talking about a pixel selection?

Somewhat confusing as you are using APhoto not Designer (AhPoto does not have Artboard, natively)

See if this new feature (v2.4) does what you want...
