If I double-click the Resource Manager bar to resize the window, the result is as shown in the picture.

I can confirm that Affinity Photo still freezes and has delays in executing commands. I attach a video. I am using version 2.6.0.3027, RTX 3060 laptop, Studio Driver 566.36 Recording 2025-01-19 113113.mp4

Thanks @walt.farrell Now look at my benchmark result... hmmm my amd 5700 is recognise as „gfx1010:xnach-”

Hi, with this beta I can finally enable OpenCL for my AMD graphic card, but I cannot use any more Benchmark. Is this normal?

Good news with the latest beta release 1.8.0.526 Fixes Improved Expand Stroke

Joachim_L thanks for the solution.

1. I create a file that i want to be the background of a page (plus.png) 2. I create rectangle, then went to Fill Tool ->Context = Fill and type = Bitmap (choosed "plus.png") 3. Result as expected but after export to a pdf file (no matter what preset i choose) the result is my "plus.png" in the middle of the page. (result failed.pdf) 4. Strange is that I export as png or jpg the result is similar as the software show result failed.pdf

Hey DarkClown can you show me how did you drag and drop a layer from a document to another? Because I am unable to reproduce this feature...

Yes, I can confirm this too....

Fixed in beta version 1.7.2.422

I've found the solution I'm looking for, so after editing the pages in Abbyfinereader 14, I export each scanned page individually in png, then in Affinity Publisher I import png pages with Picture Frame. Now I can print in booklet mode. So happy... Affinity Publisher.

Thank you for your response, I've attached the 5 steps I follow (order of screenshot from down to up) after each scan of the pages (with AbbyFineReader 14). The purpose is not to compare Affinity Publisher with Adobe Indesign, but if I import the same pdf file, the view result is the correct one . I learned the steps I must follow in A.P. to print a booklet but now I'm getting the problem of importing pdf files. But it's not a big deal, just testing, I'll find another solution and for sure I can survive without it. Cheers.

Hello, I have old books that I've converted to pdf (for personal use only) with AbbyFineReader 14. I have some problems when opening these pdf files with Affinity Publisher. When I open the pdf file with Adobe Reader (screenshot attached), it shows me exactly the right way, but when I try to open it with Publisher, it's interesting that letters are black as well as the background no matter what color space I choose (GRAY, RGB, CMYK). I mention that I used AbbyFineReader 14 to scan and edit the pages in the books and then convert them to pdf. I attach the two files, pdf and the resulting file from Publisher. Is there any way I can open it just like in Adobe Reader ? result.afpub book.pdf

I can confirm this too with Windows 10 17763

Hey seabirdr, This behavior happens when I have hundreds of shapes in the same document. If a rectangle moves into a newly created file it moves without delay, but the same rectangle copied into a multi-layered document notices that delay. Try to copy the same rectangle into a new file and that delay will not occur. It's odd to see that performance drops with the creation of multiple shapes. Usually I work in multiple documents for one document, so performance will not drop. But I'm sure that the Serif team will improve this area.

Hey, try this program https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/windows-fix-problems-that-block-programs-being-installed-or-removed to uninstall Affinity Publisher Beta.

1. create a table 2. write something ("text") 3. copy-paste on another cell 4. in some case (when i select the space after "test") the height of the cell is increased.

GabrielM you are brilliant! Thanks a lot.

Is it a normal way (by design) not to be able to apply a uniform resize of an object if I set a value to rotate and skew?

Hi, this bug is present also on Affinity Designer 1.7.0.258, have a look file attached. Strange that after a hard reset and open the same file again, Grid shows up but after a time (didnt discover yet the steps to reproduce this bug) despite in the menu "Show Grid" is enable, this feature wont show.

If I export only as .png my CPU wont go above 50%. Untitled 1.avi

True, same behave, didnt notice before.

...

Yes i can reproduce each time. I can send you the file. My configuration I7 3770, windows 10 pro build 18356
