Old Bruce

I have to say that after using Publisher 2 for a bit and observing this behaviour I prefer it to the old way. But I have a Wacom tablet with touch for quickly zooming and moving the spreads about so maybe it is only me that will think this is a good thing. If we get the old method back I would like it to be a preference. Double click on a Page zooms to Spread with a checkbox.

Check the Preferences > Shortcuts > Tools

You can just use None from the Apply Master... in the context menu as the Master/Parent page. This when you right click on the desired Actual page in the Pages panel. Be aware that I think you will not have any margins on that page. I would class making a blank Master/Parent page as a best practice method, but perhaps a tad redundant.

My toaster oven doesn't have bluetooth.

@huangzhikang, I would love to see this capability added. Personally I would like this to scriptable as well but we'll have to wait and see if it is added.

There is an option in the Preferences under Tools. Select Object when intersects.... check that box.

I just have to point out that Update and Upgrade are words with quite different definitions.

Wouldn't that double the maintenance costs? Plus create different and or more bugs for Windows users? Note that I am neither a Windows user nor a programmer, just moderately curious.

There is a missing icon for the Home key on the Menu for Text > Baseline > Lower Baseline and Precice Lower Baseline. And then in the Keyboard Shortcuts there are different icons used for the Home and End keys. This is on Mac OS 11.7.1

I would say for myself it is quite annoying. Happening here with OS 11.7.1

One application I use daily has an upgrade discount for existing users, it is 20%. I prefer the 40% off I got from Affinity.

Are you downloading from the Affinity site? And a dumb question or two... Do you have enough space on the hard drive (you'll need about a gig)? You don't have any cloud service that is maybe trying to save it to the cloud?

In your video the text is displayed on the Spread in which the text frame is located. I noticed that as soon as the text frame's centre was on the lower spread the text 'disappeared'. This is because the text frame (and its text) is now on the second lower spread.

Hi @JMags this will most likely be the result of a slow internet connection. Happens to me sometimes too with other sites. All I can say is to keep on trying.

Yes to the One Preset idea. I just select the preset, and that will make the settings I want to tweak a bit available then ... Sigh, yes save it and delete the old one. But I never start by deleting then starting over from scratch. I just select the preset by clicking then release the mouse button once the menu opens, I don't have to change to Default. But it bugs me no end that I have to do that click in the first place.

You could use Global colours although the Document Swatch palette would get full if you are using a lot of colours. Another thing is to use the Colour Panel's colour picker to get the new colour from the fill colour well and then click on the Stroke and fill it with that stored colour. Best would be to be able to roughen the actual shape so no stroke would be needed.

Yes it would.

Must be a Mac only thing then.

I have to disagree, here is one; raw file development is quite different and it is better.

Works here on Mac.

No raster to vector ability in V2.

They are two separate applications, so yes version one will remain.

I think you need to have a document open in Designer, just make a new one from File > New...

Can you post a screenshot of the Layers panel then? I am at a loss as to why you can't do this.

Try using the Move tool, the black arrowhead, once you have made your selections.
