Thank you both for your suggestions Brian will try yours first if that does not deal with it I will look at the link that Paul provided. Cheers John

Good afternoon to all. Sadly when I am drawing/painting on my iPad my hand leaves paint strokes whilst I am using my apple pencil. I have tried hold the pencil in a different position but this is proving to feel unnatural, are their any sort of gloves that are available to overcome this problem? Am I alone in experiencing this? Thank you John

Thanks for the reply Dan. hopefully the developers can implement this. I would rather stay with Affinity.

I have just started using Affinity designer on my iPad in preference to Procreate and I cannot seem to find a mesh grid within the program. Sadly for me its a necessary function as I do quite a lot of text manipulation. I have tried using Affinity photo to achieve what I want but with limited success. Is this feature missing or is it likely to be implemented, or should I abandon Affinity designer and install Procreate?

I have just purchased the Ian Barnard's "Freestyler" pack from the Affinity store and reading the PDF manual it states "Draw a black letter using either SloppyJoe or Roughneck ‘Mono’ brushes". I cannot seem to find these. Can anybody point me in the right direction please. Update, I found these in the installed brush pack. Cheers John

Thank you both will have a look at these to try. Cheers John

I am creating a map in Affinity designer and I have several areas of wasteland that I wish to put a 45 degree hashed style in. sadly i cannot for the life of me see how to create such a style. or has anybody created any hatched styles? Anybody any suggestions on how to achieve this please?

EmT thank you, I've been using the program like forever and there it was staring me in the face. Solved the issue, thanks for your speedy help. Cheers John

I seem to inadvertently detached the tools toolbar and for the life of me I cannot see how to reattach the toolbar. Any help would be welcome. thank you John

Thank you Paul. It was not even in my thoughts to use and look in the Export to PDF option, I was looking everywhere in the print menu and the programs preferences. It was obvious once you pointed it out so thank you. Cheers John

Good afternoon. Is the a way one can get a newly created PDF document in Affinity Publisher to open automatically as a preview in the MS edge browser on win10 after you create/complete and save the PDF file please? I have an option to do this in Pageplus but I cannot find an option in Affinity Publisher. Cheers John

Cheers Carl. John

Good afternoon. New PC arrived yesterday and I installed my 3 Affinity programs, when I try to log in and register the programs I get a time out message. Has anybody else had this problem? Cheers John

Paul this is the logo I am trying to get a bevelled edge all the way round the outside. Cheers John

Good morning Paul. Unfortunately the direction setting does not give me a 360 degree bevel on the doughnut. Cheers John

I am trying to create an adjustable overall bevel on a doughnut in affinty Photo, but sadly when trying to use the Bevel and Emboss it only allows the effect in a certain direction. Can anybody suggest how I can achieve this effect please? Thank you John

Good morning, a question if I may. I am in the process of changing to a windows 11 Desktop PC and wondering if any body can let me know the following please. I use Topaz AdjustAI along with Topaz B&W and Filter Forge 11 as plugins currently on my Win10 laptop. Does any else use any of these plugins and do they work Ok in APhoto purchased from the Serif store on Win11? Thank you John

Good afternoon. I have a pageplus 85 booklet that I now propose to make a PDF of and continue to update overtime in publisher. The booklet in pageplus is from a booklet template a4 landscape which prints 2 pages of a5 on 1 a4 page in a booklet form is there a suitable template to use in publisher. Thank you john

Thank you to everybody that contributed to this thread. I now have all I need to make the card for my grandson. Cheers John

Thank you H. As I said, it has been a long time since I used the feature so obviously my memory failed me on this occasion. Cheers John

Sorry if I did not explain myself properly. If I right click on a layer in the panel I have the option to assign a colour to that layer in the layer panel. Cheers John

How do I change the colour of a layer in APhoto please? Its been a long while since i used this feature but from memory I thought if I right clicked on the layer it bought up a menu that included properties and I could then choose the particular colour I wanted for the layer. If I do the same now in ver 1.9 the properties are not in the right click menu only several colours to choose from. None of which I want to use, am I missing something here. Cheers John.

Good morning. Are there any label (Avery 7160) templates available for Publisher yet. I know I cannot use Publisher like for like with PagePlus but is there the ability in the program yet to edit and save a mail merge datafile similar to what could be used with PagePlus such as an *.sbd file? I have looked but I do not think so just yet. Cheers John

Stuart that was so kind of you. I am sure I can make great use of these. Cheers John

Thank you Stuart, His birthday is not until March. I do the artwork designing and my wife puts the card together using her Brother scanNcut. teamwork in lockdown. Cheers John
