Crash Report Separate Mode (OFF)
Chris_K replied to AprilWetter's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi AprilWetter I only seem to get this when switching straight after starting a new document. I shall get this reported. If you switch without a document open it should go back fine Cheers -
TOC Set-Up difficulties
Chris_K replied to Mr.C's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on Windows threads
I've had experience with the TOC being very small it is usually is caused by the base style being removed as the default TOC styles are based on this base style.If this is not the case would you be able to give some information about your OS version and language? Cheers -
Higher DPI settings make dialogs unusable
Chris_K replied to Marcello's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on Windows threads
Hi Marcello Our system requirements actually only support a scaling value of 150% at your monitor resolution I'm afraid. This can be found in the Publisher help. This should is lacking form the requirements on our website so I shall get this communicated to the relevant people to get this part updated Cheers -

Formating picture frame
Chris_K replied to Creatheque's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Creatheque Object styles are not live update able like text styles are. I;m afraid you have to make a new style and apply it to the object. Cheers -
Hi BuffaloJohn. That sample is mainly there so we had one for the beta. There will be a full range of sample from various artists by the time we release Thanks

Table of contents and hyperlinks
Chris_K replied to Michael Gough's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Michael Gough You set the tab leader as part of the paragraph style used in the Table of Contents. If you go the the paragraph style you are using and edit it you set the leader in the tab stops section. Hyperlinks are not something that will be part of the initial release I'm afraid but should be something we add in an update Cheers -
Hi Creatheque We don't have this in quite the same way, we have initial words on the paragraph panel (and part of a paragraph style) which allows you to apply a character style to the first x amount of words. We don't have GREP styles based on rules, but you can apply a character style to specific glyph manually. Cheers

Hi Dave Wilcox You should be able to click on the flow arrow on the side of the text frame which will give you the cursor with a link next to it then hover over any existing text frame which will then be highlighted blue and then click to flow into that frame and link the two. You can also draw out a new text frame to flow into after clicking on the flow arrow. The flow arrow is the one highlighted in the image below If this is not the case for you can you provide an example that shows the issue you are seeing

Locked into View tool
Chris_K replied to Colin_Fredericks's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Colin_Fredericks Are you using any pan/zoom combination using the spacebar? I believe there is a known issue with all our apps where it can get stuck depending on the order you release the keys. Does this sound like what you are experiencing? Cheers -
Hi ABP Are you referring to the transparent background options in the spread setup, or in other areas too as this seems to be only one I have the issue with. I will get this one reported

Filler Text and Basline Grid
Chris_K replied to Hangman's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Hangman This single selection is because filler populates the text frame dynamically as you resize it. In preferences there is also an option to insert filler text as text. If you go into the baseline grid manager there is an option for display threshold. This will stop the baseline grid displaying when you go under a certain zoom level, which is adjustable. This is to prevent the document being covered by the baseline grid when zoomed out so you can still see the content Cheers -
Text frames and photos
Chris_K replied to NigelH's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on Windows threads
Hi Nigel H You can hide the text frame borders buy going to the View menu and unticking Show Text flow If you select a picture frame that has an image placed in it with the picture frame tool you get the options at the bottom to resize the image and move the image within the frame. It should be a small dark slider that appears on the screen. You can also just select the image in the layers panel and resize the image with the move tool. There are not other shaped image frames available form the tool, but you can select and object such as a shape and convert it to a picture frame in the Layer menu Hope that helps -
Maaking text frames the same size
Chris_K replied to E9B6's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Hi E9B6 There are multiple ways this could be done. you can adjust the size of the text frame by typing in the required dimensions in the transform panel. You could save the various sizes of text frame you need as an asset to drag out when you needed. Those are probably the best two methods. currently there is o method to adjust multiple text frame sizes in one go Cheers -
Hi Mr.C I;m not getting this if i select a4 as the page preset than it is giving me the right size both on document creation and spread setup. Is there anything else you may be adjusting or any particular steps you were taking? Did it only occur for that single document or is it something you are coming across often? Thanks

Insert page number bug
Chris_K replied to Natters's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Natters I'm not getting any issues inserting page numbers here. Is this every time for you? Is it only in a certain file or all files you create? are you able to provide any more information or video of what you are seeing leading up to the crash at all? Thanks -
Hi tim Not for the initial release I'm afraid

Cannot Change Table Border Options
Chris_K replied to squirrelfire's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on Windows threads
Make sure you have the table text tool selected. It should allow you to select the edge you wish t apply the stroke to for the selected cells -
Leading Not Applied
Chris_K replied to Skarjune's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi Skarjune Leading seems to be working here for me on Mac. Are you able to provide any video or screenshots of what you are seeing for us to look into? Thanks -
Placed Image Constrain
Chris_K replied to fenris64's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Hi fenris64 This sounds like it is all working as expected. This is a standard behaviour across all our apps. By default things that you would want constrained usually are constrained by default like images and some text. Things you may usually not want constrained like shapes are not be default. You then use the shift modifier to change this. The move tool constrain option can then be changed to have every object constrained without having to press shift or none of the objects are constrained and you will always need to hold shift -
Documentation?
Chris_K replied to bdgWesternMass's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Interesting, that should not be the case. But yes it could be due to the beta OS so it would be good to know if this is what is causing this. -
Not in this initial release I'm afraid, possibly in the future, but I can't say this will be for definite or when
