"None of the reasons you suggested are possible."

Hi, Garry. Thank you for your effort. I appreciate it. I guess I will build a brand-new document. And this time and from now on I'll make copies along the way when working with Affinity. None of the reasons you suggested are not possible. The folder is right, I am the only person working on my only one, not connected computer, nothing else was running along clenaing-wise. And if I accidentally deleted the file it would be in the bin, right? But it was not. Nor anywhere else in my comp. I learn every day, so any bug- or trick knowledge according to Affinity is precious to me, that this won't happen again. Best, Helena

I linked one affinity designer document: HB_LOGO.afdesign. But, I used two different artboards. And intended to link many more artboards of the same document into the aff. Publisher document, that I have a problem with. This was my normal workflow in Adobe Illustrator before I switched to Affinity less than a year ago.

Unfortunately, i do not have time machine.

Hello, I designed a file in Aff. Designer. A file with many layers and artboards. The file was properly saved to my computer (MacBook pro). I then placed (linked) some of the artboards from that Aff. Designer document into the new AFF. Publisher document that I created. I saved everything and returned to work after a while (half an hour). I reopened Aff. Publisher and the link to AFF. Designer document was missing! I tried to relink, but the file was not there! I opened Aff. Designer and tried to open the file: first in recent files, nothing. Then in my folder: again nothing. I searched Bin, the whole disc and iCloud with Terminal. Nothing. Please help me, it was a lot of work.
