[Publisher 2.4.0.2222 crashes during datamerge]

the Fields panel

[Publisher 2.4.0.2222 crashes during datamerge]

seems to be crashing when redrawing the fields panel - if you hide that panel before the merge does that stop the crash ?

[Set selection box]

I'm not seeing the big bounding box any chance of a sample file (saved with history) ? If you havent rotated the object then I think we dont create a 'selection box' that is logged in a report though

[Set selection box]

@NotMyFault  - I'll get that pixel layer issue logged

[Set selection box]

@Hangman It may be better to change the order we cycle through. With this feature we also have another state after you have set a bounding box (base, regular and selection)

[Set selection box]

The setting of the selection box is non destructive  so yes you can undo all previous operations

In libre office - Select all, then unselect the columns you want to keep. Then delete the columns you dont need (sheet, delete columns)

[Publisher 2.3 hangs when inserting a file xlsx]

deleting them in libreoffice and resaving gives a better import - not sure why there are soo many

[Publisher 2.3 hangs when inserting a file xlsx]

was that file generated from a cloud service ?

Is that an option?

From the file menu is the 'Save History with Document' option ticked?

[Publisher File Export Issue]

I don't think there's a definite better way to be honest unless the file is becoming HUGE then you may look to optimise that way

[Publisher File Export Issue]

I'd still like the original afphoto as removing that fixed the export for me. Although it could be some other sort of corruption and there's potentially a load of fixes

[Publisher File Export Issue]

If i remove the afphoto files it exports for me - can we get a copy of the afphoto file used i this document please.

[APub Crash]

one of the crash reports would indicate some kind of problem with the file history -are you saving history in your files?

[Spelling underline not appearing - not solved after all]

@MikeTOcould you get an activity monitor sample process report when the spell checker isn't working. Maybe some thread has locked up

[Failed to open file error]

Can you manually delete these lock files?

[Data merge, telephone number]

using your files and build 2.2.1.2075. I wonder if its linked to locales and the newly added date formatting functions for fields. Where Hangmans fails mine works.

[Data merge, telephone number]

can you try deleting the data source then readding it?

[Data merge, telephone number]

@Hangman - I've simply loaded the afpub file, removed and readded the data source then previewed the results. Which regional settings are you using ?

I've tried french on WIndows and that worked for me too

[Data merge, telephone number]

Seems to be functioning for me - 2.0.4 was the last working version for you?

[Publisher v2.2.0 constantly crashing]

what make are model is your big screen?

[Affinity Photo Lagging & Slow On Macbook Pro (MacOS Sonoma version 14.0)]

which model of Mac do you have exactly ?

[URGENT! Documents can not be opened on macOS Sonoma.]

@dhelm245 can you recall exactly what file you opened for that process sample?

[URGENT! Documents can not be opened on macOS Sonoma.]

When the file is in the loading state you can try taking some process samples from the activity monitor ( Select the process e.g. Afinity Publisher, then View, Sample Process) these logs can give us some insight into what is going on and it's worth taking a few whilst the file is loading.

[Slow PDF Export on both Windows and Mac current versions of all software.]

I dont think there's anything in particular causing a slow down like other users have here. Running tests here exporting to PDF/X4 we would expect an export time in the order of certainly less than 10 minutes. What Export settings are you using exactly (Screenshot).

Also is the macbook running on any sort of power saving mode ?

Also check you have a lot of free disk space on the startup volume
