@dehskins If you are trying to find an item on a tool context menu which relates to a layer-level function, make sure that you have switched from either of the text tools to the move tool (press V). e.g...
And the "convert to art text" function should be on the layer menu in Designer (though absent in Photo), e.g...
-
@MikeTO's very helpful chart from a year ago suggests that it was never in Photo. It seems a little bit odd to me: given the same two tools, I would expect to see the same functions at least somewhere to convert between either of them; unless there is some technical limitation, obviously. TBH, I hadn't even noticed the difference until reading this thread as I habitually use Designer for text.
-
I would find that very useful because I often find that one or two of my most used settings are in the overflow, so I would move them if I could. As an alternative, it would be helpful if the context bar was scrollable when overflow occurs. I have sometimes configured browser toolbars (using CSS) to work like that because it is efficient.
-
I had it happen once recently, but only as a one off which I was soon able to clear just by toggling one or two things back and forth, e.g. the mask inversion or the tool selection. As it was quite quickly working again, I thought little of it at the time.
-
I am unconvinced. I would find it easier to remember to select the fill or stroke than try to remember which action to use, but I make no claims about my brain working like anyone else's, so it may depend upon how one thinks and works.

To receive a different answer may require a different question to be asked.

You made a suggestion and received fair minded explanations of why that suggestion may not be very sensible.

That is a bold and very probably inaccurate assumption. I am often very supportive of feature requests, but I cannot support this one.

I admit that I am not familiar with Objective C. But in those programming languages with which I am reasonably familiar, alphanumeric array sorting is trivial. So I looked it up and it did not take much effort to find out that there is a function for it in Obj C, just as one would expect. So if this were to be implemented, it should not present any "major problem". Languages do not need to be accounted for; and supported non-Latin alphabets, i.e. Cyrillic, should already have been accounted for – there is a function for that as well – when the translations were added. In other words: it's technically trivial.

Um, just out of interest, approximately how much of your day is spent waiting for another Affinity application to open on what I assume is cutting-edge, professional-grade hardware?

This is not a criticism and please don't take it as such; but your view of other people's choice of words reads like an instance of knowledge fallacy. Not everyone knows what you, I, or someone else knows, but it's normal for us all to forget that from time to time. Perhaps a lot of people don't know the name for the people tasked with making UX decisions; or that such roles exist and are a distinct part of development (I would argue that UX designers are still developers in the same way as I used to be a web accessibility developer); or perhaps some people just want a shorthand for the cohort who work at a software company while they get their point across. I hope you won't mind if I refer to all such related people as developers because, believe it or not, I do quite like brevity. 🙂

That would be OK if was an opt-in preference, as you have suggested.
I long ago used an image editor which worked in this way by default. The UX team probably thought that it was a super idea, but losing a complex selection with one accidental tap of a touchpad is not amusing even the first time, I can tell you.

If the points were adapted according to a background, they could all end up being different colours, which would undermine the intent, with consistency being important to comprehension.
I found that bbrother's suggestion helped considerably.

I started noticing this in the last few days. A particular editing task and a change in how I would go about it combined to reveal it, so I don't know how long the bug has existed. It may not always occur consistently, as I could not make it happen deliberately every single time. I'm also stuck on Monterrey.

I have full keyboard access off, but I need keyboard navigation enabled for website navigation.

@Serif Info Bot This issue still exists. Was it fixed or did it get put back in the queue?
-
Just bumping this up as it surely deserves consideration. Having just completed around thirty focus stacks for a client, the clunky folder browsing method which is forced on the user got quite tiresome, especially as it always opens the last output folder rather than the last input folder. All of the stack dialogues – HDR, focus, etc. – could use some work to make the process smoother.
-
To be clear, I am very much in agreement with your request, so I'm not sure what the quote was for.
-
I have long wanted to be able to do this; though I suspect that we have somewhat different motivations because I don't recognise your description of the key's function. For me, having certain modifying functions for e.g. the pen tool and others attached to a single key on the left side causes an accessibility issue.

I thought that most of what he/she asserted is self-evident and, therefore, credible.

Your channel deserves more than its current number of subs and views, Trent; and your video is more interesting than the Affinity Revolution equivalent. I don't use a Google account, but I added you to my RSS feeds a while back (it's old school, but so am I).

In that case, my fix would have been to discourage those people from importing such a crazy and unnecessary quantity of LUTs.

Nathan, do you happen to know whether any future fix for this reported bug will also prevent the arbitrary disorder of opened files? It would help the workflow if they always open reliably in alpha-numeric order.

I very rarely ask for anything, but this issue is a long time itch which I cannot scratch.
Would Serif consider adding a preference to re-enable LUT thumbnail previews in the adjustment panel?
Because I really miss them. I often use LUTs as a quick and effective way of finally unifying photos for websites, but that has become so needlessly awkward since the thumbnails were removed quite some time ago (late version 1, I think?). As a consequence, I trimmed the list to an absolute minimum and renamed some, but it is hardly ideal.
If there was a performance problem, then I can empathise with that (although my old Intel Macs never struggled with the previews – they run Affinity pretty well).
But please provide the option to enable the previews for those of us who use LUTs.
Apologies if this has been requested before, but I searched and found nothing here.

It is thanks in no small part to that "relevant minority" – whatever that is supposed to mean – that I and many other members know how to get the most from this software. That in turn has allowed me to run my very small and insignificant business effectively and, above all, affordably.
So drop the attitude, please.
