I prefer yellow on green, Max Macs Rule!

Those are properties which can be set for Text Frames and they can not be set for paragraphs in a Paragraph Style.

View > View Mode > Clip to Canvas is not ticked I will wager. The tip off is where on the ruler your "0" is at the page edge.

It is in the current version of the beta. Text > Insert > Fields > Next/Previous Frame Page Number. make a pair of linked frames and type into the first one "continued on page <Next Frame Page Number>" <Frame Break> "continued from page <Previous Frame Page Number>"

Only happened yesterday, I guess a shutdown and restart cleared up the problem. Today with three different documents, including the original problem files, it all worked like a charm. Thanks for checking. I'll try to temper my enthusiasm when finding problems in the future.

Post a small publisher file that this happens with.

This happens when I enter a number into the pages studio to jump to it, the caret is there waiting for me to enter a page number and as soon as I touch one of the number keys it crashes. Affinity Publisher Beta_2018-12-11-075442_Bruces-MacBook.crash double click at the 8,9 of 486 to enter the caret.

You had the text wrap too high, I changed it to 1 mm from 3 mm. Prova fix.afpub

Looks like you have Text Wrap on the Frame for the headline and the text is flowing away from the image.

https://xkcd.com/2083/ I saw this comic and wondered if you know Randal (or does he know you?) You get the weirdest problems.

Double click on the Circle/Dot/Node or Thing

If by old money you mean £/s/p then no due to being a Canuck, I did chance across a farthing in change once here in Canada. I do remember Dominion Day and the Red Ensign, I also slip up once in while and refer to Armistice Day. Feet & Inches sure but Gallons through to Fluid Ounces are tricky living next the US.

Sadly this is how it works. We have to place Text Frames on pages, Master Page Text Frames are currently only useful for things like Page Numbers and with several Master Pages applied we can use repeating Text like headers or section names. As much as I am enjoying testing the beta this lack of functionality is a deal breaker for me.

I still do this on occasion.

Don't hide the layers, show all the layers, they won't interfere with each other.

As they say on The Good Place "What the Fork!" In Separated Mode the exact same thing as you described happens. Now you have to decide on better title for this behaviour.

Hi, I am not seeing what you get. As soon as I release the command key the regular bounding box returns. The other thing is that as soon as I press the command key I get the values for the distance on the thin blue lines. I also have shots of my Preferences It may be a different setting. I am baffled.

Doesn't seem to be A way to do that very simple job. (have you yelled "Stop That!" at the screen whilst trying?)

It looks like some sort of Text Decoration from a Paragraph Style.

Thank-you for my morning chuckle.

I know what you mean. There are a couple of things (anchored objects/image/tables and Text Frames on the Master Pages behaving like a Master Page Text Frame) which flabbergast me with their absence. As much as I am enjoying the bug hunt and wrapping my brain around another piece of software I can say I will not buy it until those are included.

I tried to replicate this yesterday and came up blank. When I have had odd difficulties of this sort I find a restart of the Mac makes a big difference. From your signature I see you are using a 9 year old machine with the same OS as I have so give it a try or even 'zap the pram' as we used to do back in the day (P + R + option + command held down at restart until you hear the start-up tone twice).

Okay, I see what you mean. I am surprised I never noticed this before. It is supposed to work that way, I have always just used undo + redo to get to the point I want then pick-up the pen/mouse and begin working from that point. I do see that an inadvertant mouse click will destroy the redo path but the 1.7.0.x beta of designer has the ability to store 'paths' of redo/undo so going forth and back.

Just received it isn't a bug waiting to come along and bite me. The behaviour is not unexpected when I think about it but it is rather disappointing and unintuitive. It would be nice to be able to open a TIFF and do some work on it.
