[Cannot change selected text's colour in a Master Page text frame on a Page. .221]

Hi Old Bruce

 

With a text frame from he master you can change the typography properties but things such as fill colour are not changeable int he default mode. This is the same with things link tables and shape fills. Only certain elements are detached in the default edit frame content mode, the edit detached mode is there to allow you to edit all the properties of an object without it sync-ing back to a master page.

In short form this is intended

[Adding a single page doubles your text in a bad way. .221]

HI Old Bruce

Unless you have text on the master page itself, the new page should insert with the text frame blank and the flow should just skip over it and carry on like it does when added at the end of the document.This seems t be fine for non facing document but an issue for facing.  We are already aware of some  issues with flow when using master frames but I shall make sure this is logged also.

If i have missed the exact issue you are raising would you be able to provide more detail about your actual document setup and the steps you are performing

[TOC separator problem (v1.7.0.221)]

Hi mykee

It does seem to be behaving slightly funky here. I have passed it over to the development team

[Printing with info issue]

For me here I'm getting a red line telling me the print content is larger than the print area. If you look at your screenshot you can actually see this red line in your preview but it is over the thick black line making it a bit more difficult to see

[New Assets]

Hi Roland Dicke

You can only add native affinity objects eg text frames, shapes, curves pixel layers etc. This has been restricted for whole document as Publisher now has a link or embed policy. Designer 1.7 also has this new document placement policy and has the same behaviour for adding assets as Publisher does

[Beta 1.7.0.221 not opening]

I shall take it you also have no luck directly installing build 211 and not installing 206 first then updating?

[Printing with info issue]

Hi Typo998

You are printing to Adobe PDF not a physical printer. The output won't overflow it will just increase the document size to include the other elements. If you set it to be an actual printer it will show the red 'overflow' border

[Master Mayhem]

Hi fde101

This is an issue we are aware of. Thanks for raising this

[Is Mojave OS okay now for Affinity Publisher?]

I've been running Mojave since its release and publisher has been fine on it

[On the subject of master pages]

Hi Michail

I have logged the crash in point 1.

Point 2 is a fair suggestion, this and point three require the edit detached mode to be enabled to actually function. Looks like you are getting to grips already with point 4

Thanks

Thanks ToOldForThis

I have let our documentation team know

This shortcut hasn't changed unless you may have altered it manually along the way

[a Weird typing bug I Encountered in .221]

I'll get this reported to the development team

[Show Special Characters always on]

Hi Ormhaugen

This setting should be saved within your document So it should be enabled if your document was saved with it enabled and off if saved with it off. It seems to be behaving correctly for me here

[Testing Master page Unlink and Editing]

Hi SteveP110

You're going to need to provide some actual description of what it is you are doing here. From the looks of the screenshot you are using displaying the measurements from other objects. Without know what you are doing or trying to do it's difficult to say what is right or wrong here

thanks

[Beta 1.7.0.221 not opening]

HI GRH

Can you uninstall any publisher elements you have then run this Microsoft tool and try installing again

Thanks

[Grids not aligning correctly]

Hi somnolentsurfer

It looks like on Mac the baseline grid only conforms to whole points where as the grid will do decimals. If you set both to 12 they will line up. also there is an issue where at certain zooms the grid is not starting correctly from the 0,0 point of the document. This does work fine one Windows so I shall get it reported if not already

Cheers

[Resource Manager not able to locate missing resources]

Hi dcwaggener

Locate is to find that resource within your document, so it changes the view to the document page the resource is on.

Try using replace instead

Cheers

[Text Frames and Master Pages in .221]

Thanks Seneca

These are a bit more specific than what you've put here but I can get both points 2 and 3 so I shall get them logged.

[Unexpected text frame behavior]

Hi Todd Hagler

Where on the frame are you double clicking? If it is somewhere n the text then it should just insert the carat at that location. Double clicking on a control node for the text frame will cause it to fit to text from that node. If you are slightly zoomed out in the document then it could be that the control node click is being picked up instead of the click on the text

Cheers

[Selecting text in columns]

Hi Joachim_L 

I'm not getting any issues here, I can quite easily select the text in columns here. It seems it's not too much of an issue for you now either but I shall keep my eye out for any issues with this

Cheers

[New Assets]

Hi Roland Dicke

As the error suggests, assets cannot be created with external documents either embedded or linked. So If you have something with a PDF or a PSD or Affinity file you will not be able to make an asset from it. 

Cheers
