    loukash reacted to Pšenda in Translation to Czech   
    Hi Mike,
    thanks for translating the chars - just a grammar correction for me:
    - "Mezera" is feminine, hence "á":
    Střední matematický mezera* - Střední matematická mezera*
    Em mezera rozčtvrcený*† - Em mezera rozčtvrcená*†
    En mezera rozčtvrcený*† - En mezera rozčtvrcená*†
     
    - Rozdělovač nulová šířka - Rozdělovač nulové šířky, or Rozdělovač, nulová šířka
    - Ukotveného objektu, although it's not entirely wrong, because it's actually the Char of the anchored object (Značka ukotveného objektu), written on its own (without the Char/Značka) it should be "Ukotvený objekt".

    You must be a genuinely lucky person if you perceive this as "real pain"…  
    Place the Image Capture app in your Dock and then: 
    Because clicking an existing icon in your Dock will cause you about as much "pain" as navigating to the File menu in APh and selecting the "Acquire Image" menu item anyway.
    Then follow the setup procedure I've linked to.
    If you don't want Image Capture to live in your Dock, set it up like this: 
    This complete workflow can be run by a few keyboard shortcuts. 
    To set it all up will take you a one-time investment of a few minutes which will be worthwhile if you…

    It depends on your definition of 'soon'. Affinity have been aware of this bug for nigh on four years now, so don't hold your breath.

    Fair enough, and I fully support that request as well.
    I'm only offering ways how to achive what you need now, because it could take years until Serif implements it, if at all…

    Alright, so possibly it's a specific permission issue with this very document.
    You can't. Affinity Photo contains primarily the subset of functions that are relevant for photo editing. As the app name says…  
    If you need more pages, then Publisher is the tool with the relevant focus.
    Once you've added them in Publisher though, Photo will be able to handle them as well. The respective document format is fully interchangeable.

    They do ask the customers the right questions!
    Serif provides all information about found and possibly fixed bugs in this forum, including a powerful search function.
    But only a few users use it.
    The majority of users waste their time writing lengthy, or more or less meaningless, error messages instead of spending a few minutes searching or analyzing the FAQ sections.

    you can provide this info proactively with your very first post, saving the time it takes until someone would ask you expecting 1:1 support interaction with staff, solving a problem that has already been discussed in this very forum including solutions or workarounds,
    using that passive-aggressive entitled tone over a 100 bucks one time purchase is 'interesting' coming from a professional.
    I think it's quite possible you already wasted more time here ranting (without appearing too eager to solve your presumed problem)
    than what your AP license cost you.

    It seems that something has changed in v2.6.x (as opposed to v2.4.2 which I'm mostly using):
    To make it work, do not group the adjustment layers. Place them in a blank Layer instead. Then you'll get the result as described in the old thread.

    loukash got a reaction from Alfred in Unable to Crop Image   
    You're in Designer, so you have activated the Vector Crop Tool. This will crop single objects, not the canvas. It has no adjustable attributes in the context toolbar.
    Confusingly, the Vector Crop Tool uses the same icon as the canvas Crop Tool in Photo. Duh.
    The Vector Crop Tool does basically the same thing as if you simply nest objects inside a plain rectangle shape. Nothing more.
    (For the record, I haven't ever used it since I got Designer some 10 years ago… )
    In other words:
    User error, not a "bug"…

    Hi,
    in this Affinity Photo tutorial, I demonstrate a common problem of brightness differences in night photos.
    Usually, only the illuminated parts are visible, while the rest is hidden in the dark.
    I'll show you ways to harmoniously balance the photo with brightness and colors.
    Enjoy & have fun!
    Ciao Jack

    Well, even at 1000000 dpi, a 100×100 px image will still remain a 100×100 px image…  
    In other words, if you need more pixels, make your artboard larger.
    Also, View→View Mode→Pixels setting is your friend, even before you export.

    loukash reacted to PaulEC in Affinity Photo 2.2.0 Display the height and width of the current selection in the Info box   
    Apparently there is no problem with Adobe having Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign as three separate apps, which don't all have the same features and, additionally, don't share a common file format. The main difference, compared to the Affinity Suite, is that Affinity has StudioLink, so that you can go seamlessly from one app to the other, and a shared file format, so that any file can be opened, and edited, in any of the apps.

    Yes, there is. I think Affinity even supports them, but it doesn't display them.
    So is there even such a high end CMYK printer where you could even tell, say, Y23.5 from Y23.6?
    Let alone such a "high end eagle eye" that can spot it in print…?
