  1. That pop-up is not referring to your V1 documents. It is regarding any custom assets, brushes, styles (etc) you may have added/imported to V1 over the "years" If you say yes, those custom assets, brushes, styles (etc) will be copied over to V2 - Saving you the trouble of individually importing them again In my case yes, but it depends on an individual's notification settings
  2. Yes, the Info panel is just a means to add a sampler to the document Just like the Adjustment Panel is a means to add an adjustment to the document. Adjustment layers do not disappear when you close the adjustment panel. Why should the samplers? You can't Just like you can't manipulate Linked Layers or Layer States in any app other than APhoto Sometimes you need access to the appropriate panel to change/add/delete stuff that only that panel can do
  3. Anyone have any negative experiences doing this? I think the question should be does "Anyone have any positive experiences doing this? What's your logic to even consider bulk converting them now rather than doing it to individual documents as and when the need arrives?
  4. You have placed a png file inside your document that has transparency around the main object When you rasterise such a file the rasterization process is designed to trim away this transparency and just leave the object Rasterise & Trim does something different under certain circumstances but in this particular case they do the same thing If you have a specific need to keep the image at 3000px by 3000px but still need to use tools that would automatically rasterise the image (such as the eraser) then there are other techniques you can use to do this such as, in this case, adding a mask and "erasing" on the mask
  5. There's no automatic tool to do it but a recolour adjustment will allow you to do it manually You could then add that as a recolour preset to do it "automatically" to other similarly coloured prawns
  6. Should not happen with a single file How are you Outputting the RAW file? Pixel, Embedded or Linked?
  7. Even without the linked images I can crash your document by adding one page at some places Can you be more specific as to what you are doing precisely when it crashes for you?
  8. Assuming they are placed pictures they will be Image layers so... Select Object > Images Then add a shadow FX to all at once Do the same later if you need to tweak the shadow effect
  9. From the help file... Edit All Layers and Select Same/Select Object The behaviour of the Select Same and Select Object commands depends on the Edit All Layers setting on the Layers panel: When the setting is enabled, the Select Same/Select Object commands will match objects across all artboards. When the setting is disabled, the Select Same/Select Object commands will match only objects on the current artboard.
  10. Text decoration problems have been reported several times in 2.0.3 and should be fixed in the next update
  11. Well, you can batch process and change existing .afphoto files from Embedded to Linked using a macro but not to the same directory (i.e. overwriting the original .afphoto file). You have to specify a different folder for the output files. This actually has nothing to do with developing RAW files & macros. Any .afphoto file cannot overwrite itself - even using one of the built-in macros, like the "Black & White" macro when batch processing I initially thought this had to be a bug but after testing on an old copy of AP (1.8.5) it looks like it's always been this way. So maybe it's just a limitation? (Windows 11) Is this the same on Macs? PS Crazy fact number two, you can't' even batch process .afphoto files, to the same folder, just to change their size (W & H) (i.e. no macros involved) But it works when outputting to a different folder !!!
  12. I think there is a bug where linked document act as they are embedded in some cases The cure for this, I believe, is to use Resource Manager to first embed the linked images, save the document, then link them again and then do a Save as... to a new filename PS I would first make a copy of the document
  13. Serif may in the future provide some sort of preflight warning for broken words but not necessarily an "Overflowing Text Frame" warning as the text frame is not overflowing In the meantime, in the case of stuff like business cards etc you may want to consider individual text frames for each field of the business card (e.g. Name, Surname, Job Title, Telephone, Email, etc) Doing it that way will show a preflight "Overflowing Text Frame" warning whenever the field's data does not fit the available space
  14. Your first post shows you reducing the text horizontally and at no point does the "text extends past the frame horizontally" Text extending past the frame horizontally and text breaking are two different issues Still need that sample document/page uploaded!
  15. But surely it only does that when you enable "no break" If not then we need to see a sample document to see what is happening!
  16. "No break" only disables all line breaking if applied to the entire text You can apply it just to whole words, specific (long?) words and not apply it to "spaces" if you want line breaking to occur at "spaces" But between this and your other thread, without a sample document/page that shows the issues you are having most people are just guessing at solutions for you
  17. The OP's reference to "slicing the brush" is in their other post here...
  18. I am seeing the same (not sure if it changed n 2.0.3 or I did not test that initially) I can get around the issue by once I have started the macro and developed the image (using embedded as the output) I go into Resource Manager and select Make Linked then save the macro. Note: If you selected Linked as the output and then developed the image, Make Linked will be grayed out in Resource Manager so you need to first select Embed then Make Linked which also seems to work. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a way to batch process and change existing .afphoto files from Embedded to Linked (overwriting the original file) but this may be due to a bug/limitation, which I will investigate further
  19. You will always get that message if Poppins (font) is not installed on your device Font substitution temporarily substitutes a font for one you do not have. If you want the substitution to be permanent you need to do a find & replace for all occurrences of the missing font and replace it with your desired (font) replacement. A relatively easy & quick task using the advanced features of Text > Find
  20. You could create a text frame and use Text > Insert > Fields to add your custom fields to that text frame Then if you do this a lot just save that text frame as an asset and drag it into your new documents as required. It will automatically pick up the new fields
  21. The Universal License will allow you to install all or any combination of the apps on all devices So, you can have Publisher, Photo & Designer on your Windows PC and Publisher, Photo & Designer on your MacBook and Publisher, Photo & Designer on your iPad all at the same time (if you want to)
  22. Your colour format in File > Document Setup > Colour is set to RGB/16 and produces a 50MB export. If set to RGB/8 you get a 3MB export Do you need this document to be RGB/16?
  23. Don't forget to hide the original layer after duplicating it or it will appear not to work and you will see no change
  24. I don't have a Mac but I would check and retest with whatever options you have for the Display: setting and (if still the same problem) then tick the Use only Intergrated GPU (require restart) option and test with that PS If your Mac has not been rebooted since this problem restarted, I would do that first
