Wow, I just ran into this. Super-frustrating. It seems like it would be an easy fix: >If shape is closed, then no head or tail.

I'm having this same issue. Very odd. Neither option or command +drag creates a duplicate. It seems to be specific to one file. Other files, it works just fine. Okay, it seems that I had somehow selected "All", but the marching ants weren't showing at the zoom I was at. A quick deselect and everything is back to working as expected.

I want to export a bunch of InDesign files to PDF format so I can port them into Publisher. In Indesign, in addition to a bunch of image quality settings, like highest quality, etc. I have the choice of PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3, PDF/X-4, which seem to be standards. Is there a preset or standard in InDesign that will give the best import into Publisher?

Modifier keys not great
artemesia66 replied to wgphoto's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on iPad
I kind of agree with all the points in this thread. To be useful, the modifier keys need to be persistent on the screen, and on either the left or right edge, depending on your handedness. -
I have some brushes that I mostly use as stamps for grime, noise etc. They are set to have a random rotation, so that each time you click the brush, it rotates the brush shape. There seem to be two brush previews--an outline one that shows the basic brush, with no rotation, and one that is a preview of how the brush will look that is full colour, and shows the re-rotation of the brush each time it is stamped. Is there any way to disable the outline preview, or have it also rotate?

Thank you! -
Is there any way to scale a selection around the middle? On the desktop you would hold down a modifier key....

Duplicate Brushes
artemesia66 replied to ToraAkachan's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on iPad
The iPad version does memorize the settings if you do it through the studio, rather than the panel at the bottom. But I agree that being able to duplicate within the iPad app is pretty important. -

Plus one for both of these suggestions. -

Thank you so much. Extremely helpful. -
I'm having a problem with printing in the last few betas. I'm printing to an Epson 3880, and the scaling has gone a bit nuts. A letter size document printing at 100%, prints huge, even with scale to fit, etc. set to 100%. To get it to print properly, I have to manually set the size to around 24%. And then the dialogue box doesn't save that setting, so I have to set it every time. It's also pretty frustrating to not be able to print a fully bleed. Even when I specify borderless printing, AD (and AP) put a small white edge on the print. Right now my workflow is this: build the document in AD/AP, export as PDF, open in photoshop and print. Nutty.

Preview Thumbnails Blank Again.
artemesia66 replied to LilleG's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
I have the same issue. It's a real pain. Last time I had to reinstall Yosemite. This time I'm just living with it, because I don't have time. -
multi Link instead of embedding image
artemesia66 replied to Jugibur's topic in Feedback for the V1 Affinity Suite of Products
+1 for linking files. I frequently place an image in multiple files, and the files are all large because they each embed the image. Also, if the image changes, it has to be manually replaced in each file that contains it--quite a bit of work, and more potential error. -
Andy, I think you're right, about what's needed, and if it's easy to implement, that would be awesome.
-
A resounding plus one for this. eg. I have an image that is 3500 by 3500 pixels, and I want an end file that is 2000 x 1000 pixels. I want a strip through the middle of the image that uses it edge to edge in the long dimension. The crop tool should allow me to set that: Crop to exactly 2000x1000 pixels, by dragging out the crop box to any size I want in the original image, keeping to the 2x1 aspect ration, and then cropping and scaling in one step. This is how PS works, and it's something I do many times a week.

Good to know. I now have previews in the other views, which I didn't before, and I'm sure the other will be along ;) You guys are doing a great job!
-
I really, really +1 the need to be able to toggle the bounding box visibility on and off without holding down a key. when you're making minute adjustments to position or type it's a huge pain to have to keep clicking away from objects or using space bar on, space bar off, not being able to see your object in between changes.

Reinstalled 10.10.2, and that seems to have taken care of it--not for exiting files, but for new saves. Thanks so much for the help. Actually, still no previews in list view--looks like you don't either(?), but at least they're there in income view, and in the preview in the right column.
-
Well, that's interesting! I will investigate. I have no problem with any other image files, but I am on 10.10.2 as well. I don't relish the thought of reinstalling, but maybe that will be necessary. thanks for letting me know.

It would be extremely helpful if the file icons for the affinity format showed a thumbnail of the file in the finder like most other image formats, rather than a blank icon. I'm starting to acquire a fair number of Affinity files, and it's a pain to not be able to tell them apart visually... Thanks!
