  1. Hi allen57301 Master Pages works fine for me. What is it that doesn't work for you? I create my Master Page (facing pages) and then apply it to the pages that I want it to be included in (usually all). I find that you can just select multiple pages and then drag Master Page onto any to include on that are selected. Andy
  2. woefi - Perfect, thanks. This is exactly what I meant. I hadn't seen that bit in Text Frame palette. I shall try looking harder next time. Thanks again Andy
  3. Thanks. No worries. Just thought I'd mention it. I got around it, but it just wasn't as flexible as I would have liked. I'm loving Affinity Publisher no matter what anyone else says. Andy
  4. Does anyone one know how to view invisibles in text? Such as tabs and returns and spaces (like in QX, showing symbols for space as dot and other such as return, soft return, tabs, etc.). Also, is there a way of adding an invisible placer that makes everything in paragraph fall inline with it? No problem if not, I now now how to set tabs up for. And maybe this is best way to do it!! Regards Andy
  5. Bri-Toon - I think you're closest. I just meant I wanted the freedom to make sure that a text box I didn't want to be wrapped, not wrapped! But it seems that any text on that page is wrapped no matter what level it is in the layer. In my Old QX 2015, if a text layer was above something with wrap, it wasn't wrapped. Get me? It's not a mega problem, but it just didn't give me the flexibility I required. Andy
  6. Thanks, but the update seems to have sorted it anyway.
  7. Thanks Serif for beta update. Looking even more brilliant. Can anyone answer another thing I have found though? Is there a way to set Text Wrap Settings so that it only manipulates text lower than itself? At the moment, no matter how low an image or object is in Layers, it still effects any text near it (low and high in layers). I would like to place text I don't want effected by Text Wrap higher than the Text Wrapped object. Thanks Andy
  8. Hi All It's probably just me, but is there a way to set bleed for Master Page items? At the moment, everything within my document bleeds fine, but anything in the master pages doesn't. Thanks Andy
  9. I just wanted to say that I'm so pleased to have Affinity Publisher here with me. I am playing with the beta and loving it. There are some bugs, but with all out input, I'm sure it will be as perfect as Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer. Does anyone know how much the actual release will be (ball park)? Thanks Andy
  10. Hi Sabine I too am having trouble with bleed. All my pages items do bleed okay, but all my items I have set in Master Pages don't. Is there a setting I'm missing that says, 'Make Master Pages bleed too'? Thanks Andy
  11. Hi This can depend on how much inset you have set, but otherwise, in Table panel, you can set Cell depth and width. Andy
  12. PS... Christoph, as you can see, I am quite behind on my QX update and I can't update my Mac system until I have a replacement. Andy
  13. Hi Christoph I possibly shouldn't have said that about QX. I've been using that most of my career and it has been good enough. But since working for myself, I've found it hard to keep up with annual update costs and I'm absolutely loving Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher. So I can't wait to have the complete set. I love the design flexibility that I seem be getting more with these. If you can afford it, there is nothing wrong at all with QX. Having said this, I have no idea how much Affinity Publisher is going to be yet. But back to the tables, this was one thing I needed in some of my continuing works, so was one of many of the first things I tried. I couldn't believe how easy it was the first time, but some issues, which I think I have almost got around for now. Regards Andy
  14. Is it proportional or something? I set the Cell widths to what I required, even though it didn't go 10mm 10mm 26mm 26mm... so on. Then I snapped overall table to width of the one above and now these sizes are correct to what I want now. Is there something I should switch on or off for this (overall size)? Thanks again Andy
  15. Hi First like to say - I am so excited that AP is here now. I can't wait to dump my old QX 2015 and update my system software. But back to this topic. I think there may still be a bug with tables. If I start a new project. I can flow text in from Excel (copy and paste) and set-up a table fine using Cell exact. BUT, soon as I try to set up another (new or using existing one I just created), I lose all control of Cell measurement. It just won't adjust to what I want anymore. I've done this do many times now. Is it me? Or a bug? Thanks. All the very best Andy
  16. Thanks, I look forward to Affinity Publisher. As you see from my previous post, I managed to achieve what I needed anyway (with your help). Thanks again.
  17. No! Think I got ya now. The 'First line indent' was automatically placing same measurement I was placing in 'Left indent' (Tab 16mm). I '0' that and now it works. Thanks. Andy
  18. Hi Thanks, but that's not it. I want the bullet to stay where it is, but I want the following para (wherever I place it) to line to itself. In QX, it was 'Indent here'. It was a little invisible that told everything in that following para should line up with it. Until you do next para return. Andy
  19. Yes, go down text menu to spelling. Uncheck 'Check spelling while typing'. Andy
