You can sometimes trace them with that
Also ask your bank to suspend payments to them as it could be fraudulent
Until you notify your bank, they normally can't be held liable for any payments already paid
PS What country are you in?

It’s not really so terribly amusing, but even if it were I would greatly prefer to see the forum software allowing you to edit your posts.

So glad it's keeping you amused. 

The Universal Licence was introduced when version 2 was launched. The discount is for upgrading from version 1, not for switching from one or more version 2 licences.

Apart from the time limit, the trial versions are fully functional.

Unfortunately, it’s competing for limited resources! Right-to-left support — needed for Arabic, Hebrew, Farsi (Persian), Sorani (Kurdish), and Urdu — is also missing, and there’s a growing list of outstanding bugs that affect large numbers of users.

Please try what I asked for above: in your open Affinity app, go to File > Open Recent after closing the file. Do you see the file you just closed listed there?

now compare 20 years of adobe subscription to 150 or so bucks for AD V1+2.
cheap, fast, perfect - pick two and leave,
you complaining here just for the sake of it won't change the course of affinity or adobe, or anyone else,
it's just a misplaced and unnecessary waste of time.

the only game that counts is now. today. you have to work for clients. affinity did not offer us features we asked for 5 years ago. subscription model works fine no abuse . affinity is also chargingg us every update v1 v2 now soon v3 will be paid. the problem is the features. we cant make an epub on publisher we cannot work on a file as a team, we cannot do certain things on designre illustrator offered since 2006. what are you yapping about. this is why we re talking about the issue, we do not need some AL from their bedroom to come give us lessons about how great affinity or serif is or their google gpt result of who invented the first stupid image and yexy manipulation tool , ooooh. it s a rpoduct for work, it s not doing its job ,we complained, they got acquired, the closed the lid on us. end  keep your coments to yourselves gpt users from botswana 

affinity was bought by a big corporation CANVA. since then only one person benefited from the deal and became a billionnaire, the ceo of serif. sad but true. since then we do not get support or answers on forums, no more features, not even one youtube video for the last year. only took the money and through the community that believed in him in the water. thats the british way. fake and sell. thats why there are no british brand of anything, no jaguar no landrover no bentley they all had the same fate a british person who sold the community so he continues pretending he is better than us by speaking so mechanically adn not putting his elbows on the table . i hope every body goes back to adobe which they deserve they started all the creative life

@PhotoJoseph

I've not run into major issues with the Affinity apps yet (knock on wood...) while saving files on my local server. But YMMV here.
And looking at the amount of iCloud topics, it just might be the way both communicate with each other that increases the chance of corrupting files. Dunno....

Why your files are slow to open locally is indeed very odd...

And for versioning look here: 


And @Westerwälder What's so funny? If you cannot contribute in a useful fashion, please don't.....

You aren’t moving your image anywhere when you switch to a different persona, you’re simply accessing a different set of commands and tools. Personas are there to protect us from being swamped by a huge variety of options that are irrelevant to the task at hand.

There's a difference between Exporting and Saving: the export process will create the output file with all the parameters it needs for that file type. Simply saving without the export process can't do that, hence the more complex Export dialog.

I've been an early adopter of Affinity Photo, having acquired it in version 0.9   I also have a life licence for Luminar Neo which I was able to migrate from Windows to MacOS for free. I also was able to do the same for FastRawViewer.   And users of Abobe Photoshop and Lightroom can also migrate from one OS to the other without penalty.   So, I will not be buying a MacOS version of Affinity Photo.

I can't find enough words to express my indignation for not having solved after more than two months the AF-6599 bug, which is totally blocking my business.
I used always to be a loving supporter of Affinity, not a detractor, and I sincerely appreciate your work, but in this case your behaviour is truly indecent.
Is it possible that you care so little about the work of your customers?
Is this your respect for us?
Ban me, if you like, but please do something.
This is a victim's cry of desperation, and it certainly isn't meant to be disrespectful.
 

It might be useful to other people who come here looking for the answer to the same question if you tell them what you have figured out.

It is called transform panel and shows layer related size, position etc. 
 
The info panel in Photo shows information about pixel colors. 

I stopped using WebPlus at the end of last year. I have successfully switched to WYSIWYG Web Builder 20 and can recommend it wholeheartedly. 

But to answer your question: You must have both apps at the same release level (e.g., both at 2.6.3) and both must be installed using the same kind of Windows installer. That is, you must use the MSIX installer for both, or the MSI/EXE installer for both, or the Microsoft Store for both.
Most likely you have used different kinds of installers for Photo and for Publisher. I would uninstall Publisher (if that's the most recent one) and download the other installer and see if that works better for you.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @LFG.
CADtools (mistyped as “Cadtool” in your topic title) is a plugin. The Affinity apps don’t currently support plugins other than Photoshop-compatible “Effects” filters.
Many users are hoping that a proper Dimension Tool, not just a Measure Tool, will be made available in Designer in the not too distant future.

This happens when you use the wrong installer typein Windows to install the updated Affinity Version.
You most likely previously used the MSI/EXE installer and now for the updated use the MSIX installer (or vice versa).
You can fix it by uninstalling one of the installs.

The question is, how much is your budget? Do you also use your PC for gaming? Can you or do you want to continue using components (HDD/SSD) from your old PC?

That will be OK until the next update of Photo.  When that happens the location will change, meaning you will have to do this all again.
The suggestion by @Pšenda to use the MSI/EXE version of Photo rather than the MSIX version will avoid the need to repeat this after the next update.

Unfortunately this is a problem I see nearly everywhere, in forums and in business, that most people are not able to fully describe a problem in detail and providing relevant information.

Honestly, you think it's up to the end user to test the driver. 
This indicates that the software is not working properly.
