Check your preferences for the Use Shift to cycle tools in Designer under the Tools section. Arrgh!!! Ninja-ed by the original poster. [smiley face emoticon]Thanks for posting the solution as well.

Yes. Note however that if you purchased version one from the Mac App Store (like me) then you will not be able to reinstall version one. They are gone from the Mac App Store. However I do believe that if you purchased them from Affinity Serif you'll still be able to download the installers for version one if you want to.

Weird. Happens here with Mac OS 11.7 I do notice that if I open a TIFF and save it and close it and then open it again I seem to be able to get it to save after doing the work and choosing Document > Flatten. Although then it is a little progress window titled Exporting that shows up.

That is because you are moving a text frame with a small amount of text from spread one to spread two. Make the text frame vertically the height of the text and then repeat the moving.

Use the Layers panel, double click on the area to the right of the thumbnail.

Good catch. I didn't notice that a double click on a Page (left or right) will show the Spread.

Use the Designer Persona and check in Layer > Warp Group. Assuming of course that you have purchased Designer.

@cgott42 and @MikeTO Just did a quick test, first place/paste the text into the actual pages, top in top frame bottom in bottom. Then Click shift on the top frame's overflow indicator and then you have many pages with text in the top frame. Now Shift Click on the bottom frame's text overflow indicator and the text will flow into the bottom frames. I set up three pages to start with, manually linking the page one to page two frames. I am not certain that this is necessary (belts and braces kind of fellow here). Might be important, I had named the frames Top Left, Bottom Left, Top Right and Bottom Right. Note that I am on Mac, OS 11.7 and this is with the trial of Publisher 2 but I have done the same with Publisher's version one.

I thought it was for two separate text flows, say French on top and German on the bottom.

Similar to any shopping experience. Ever paid full price for a coat and then seen it on sale the next day?

Try naming the frames on the Master/Parent pages.

I finally found the Notes panel but I too am curious about this.

I would think the Find and Replace will still work, use the Paragraph Styles option for each. You need to have nothing in the actual text area of the find and replace.

Yes. Everyone gets the introductory pice.

There are two types of text frames Art Text and Frame Text. The Art text needs to have something typed after you click on the 'page' otherwise it is dimensionless. The Frame text has no outline by default, to move it about and resize (or rescale) it you need to use the Move tool, the black arrowhead.

This is one of the biggest disappointments with this release. It seems so obvious that it is a bug and it needs to be fixed. On Mac and complaining about this and the inability to tab between fields for about a year and a half or more now.

No there isn't.

I recall floppies still being a thing back in the 90s. The iMac didn't come out until 98 which effectively killed the 14 or 17 floppies for installation of some software I had.

Similar to my looking at the Canadian version of the Mac App Store.

Why not use a semi transparent fill on the vector objects?

This is an outlier in the software world. If my memory serves me correctly there was one charge once for an upgrade, but that may have been from 7 to X. Final Cut and Motion are two pieces of software I have used for years and years with no upgrade charge. Consider though how much Apple makes from its phones, they are awash in cash.

Keyboard shortcuts, to speed up your workflow. Download the trial versions and give them a try.

It is in Window > Studio > Show Left Studio

It should be in the resources manager. Unless you have rasterized the original source image after placing it in the document.

No. They will be Affinity Photo and Affinity Photo 2 in your mac's Applications folder.
