Hello,
I've been trying to make bleed work for a long time, searched this forum thoroughly, and never found a clear answer.
- I have an artboard of 24*36 in for a poster with a gray background.
- I'm adding a bleed of 0.125 in on every side in the settings of the document.
- I'm increasing the width and the height of the artboard by 0.25 in, in order to make my gray background extend into the bleed area.
- I export the artboard in PDF while checking the "include bleed" and "include cutting marks" setting.
- RESULT : the cutting marks are placed at exactly the limits of the 24*36 poster, INSTEAD of the desired 24.25*36.25 limits.
How can I make this work?
Thank you

Exciting news! Can’t wait to try it today!

But wait, isn't the Surface Dial doing that already? And better? Hmmm ...
People tend to only compare computers based on their technical aspects. Let's not forget about the OS lads! IMO macOS is just miles ahead of windows. That has always been the main thing making me stick with Apple. You just save so much time and energy avoiding instability, forced updates (*cough* Win10), malwares, bugs etc and using an overall quicker OS.

Press CMD+T and you should find all the text options you need there. :)

Beautiful picture.

Very nice! Did you really only use AD to make this? Must have taken a while to design these flowers and bushes.

Haha I like it, you should make episode 2: the missing sock that somehow vanished and the remaining one forever alone.

Yea sorry what I meant is that as said in the original post it doesn't give you the distance between several objects for example. What I'm ideally looking for is a king of "ruler" tool. :/
Edit: I can manage to find distances by doing math with the transform panel though. Thanks for your answers!
-
Thanks for the tip but I already know the transform panel, it doesn't give you the size of the object you have selected.
I actually need this to be able to "convert" my designs to CSS, so knowing the pixels dimensions would have been useful. I can try to do more or less the same thing visually but it won't be as precise & quick.

Good day people,
I was wondering if there was a tool or a command to find out how high or wide an object/shape is?
e.g if I draw several shapes and I want to know the distance between 2 of them in pixels.

I updated to osSierra and updated Affinity at the same time, yea. However I just use the regular "iMac" color profile...

Hello everybody,
I was wondering if I was the only one having performance issues since the 1.5 update in Affinity Designer?
I got an iMac with 32Gb of RAM, an icore7 and an AMD Radeon (4Gb). I never had any problems of this kind before this update (as expected).
Now, when I move a shape or some text around for exemple, even in an empty document, it's like if my "FPS" dropped. The elements don't move smoothly anymore, they kind of jump around like if my computer was overheating or too slow.
This also happens when I move a gradient and in many other scenarios. - Sorry if my english is not the best, I explained it like I could.
Anyone else noticed that?

Thank you very much! Any ETA on the next "real" update? (bringing new features)

That's great MEB, any ETA? 1.5 update?

Hello!
Did you try to do it using magnetism? It helps a lot, tells you where the middle of your document is (vertically and horizontally).
-
I noticed a feature was lacking (or maybe I didn't find out to enable it?).
I don't know what the exact term is, but that's what I'm talking about:
From what I understood, the current magnetism system only takes into account the position of the object you're moving, and all the other objects separately. It doesn't include relations between your object, and several other objects together (here I move square #3 on pixelmator but it takes into account the distance between the 2 other squares).
Pixelmator has it but not Affinity? Did I do something wrong or is it something already/to-add on the roadmap?
-
Thanks for the answer, even though it's pretty disappointing, especially considering you advertise the "great" compatibility of Affinity quite a bit.
Would definitely be a great improvement if you ever manage to make it work. :)

Hello.
I have the following problem with Affinity Designer.
When I export a file under the PSD format, every layer becomes "pixelated", including text.
This prevents the person who receives the file from modifying it like he should be able to.
How can I export a file that anyone can edit in photoshop like a regular affinity file, not pixelated?
Thanks in advance!

Well thank you, I understand.
I never thought what you couldn't see outside of the artboard would still be taken into account during the export. Now I see why people were talking about the option to show objects going outside of the artboard.
Thanks!
