.... and after rebooting the no-blink effect remains….

My OS is Ventura, full actualized. My Mac is a M1 And no, AFPub is the only app where it occurs 🤷‍♂️ And it is only a curious effect, is no annoying and otherwise the app does what is supposed to do (some quirks, but sure in minor updates will be corrected)

Auch in ‘Zeichen > Farbe&….’ und in ‘Zeichen > Position&…’ fehlt etwas! Mit nicht-englische Sprachen manchmal sind die übersetzte Literalen so-so.... (und noch schlimmer wenn man die grössere Buchstaben-Interface benutzt)

Bug or characteristic ? AFPub has lost the blinking of the text cursor... now is only a fixed vertical bar. I send a video showing this.... Emilio Grabación de pantalla 2022-11-29 a las 11.55.16.mov

Curious effect.... I send an image With repeated edits the size of the file (about 140 pages, text and only 3 images, all SVG), the (already known) increase in the file size. But curiously, y edited the same file in the iPad AFPub, and the size of the file reduces drastically! In the image the "selected" file is the one edited in the iPad version, the other .afpub file is the one edited in my M1Mac This can probably help people of Affinity to detect this bug. Emilio

Sorry The trick doesn't work 🤷‍♂️ Neither AFPub nor Pages display the font It's probably a residual problem of which the infamous Adobe is responsible. Thnx altogether I'll change the textstyle

Hi Why do some fonts not appear in the fonts list (i.e. Athelas, an OTF-TTF font), in AFPub. Even if adequately installed into user’s font folder into the library, and accesible with other apps. This has begun to happen when installing a fresh OS (macOS 12, and 13) Before refreshing OSystem AFPub used Athelas without problem. Is there a method to make those rebel fonts to reenter AFPub discipline, like they normally did? Emilio

The size of icons and explicative interface texts are small, but with big screens with a lot of pixels and pixel density, or far from eyes positioned screens are a lot smaller, really tiny. Solutions could be... refining screen style, redesigning some icons and interface details and functionality, panels rethinking. I know this is difficult.... but for a version 2.x ..... Emilio

👌👍 Interesting Is an obvious characteristic, and very interesting Thanx walt.farrell Emilio

(AffPublisher) I was trying to put a link in every TOC line (a very common option in a file to be a book on PDF) When I do it, works!, but the Preflight control shows an error saying the TOC needs to be rebuilt. After rebuilding the TOC.... all the links disappear ... and so on... It's not a good thing, really... Emilio

this characteristic [fillable PDF.forms] would be.... great, fantastic, gorgeous, awesome [... as Steve said....] (no need to go into Adobe' hell, o trying to use free PDFescape web)

I had same problem. I located those problematic glyphs through the "preflight" panel, double-clicking the line that marks the error. Maybe this help u !? Emilio

+1 Useful and interesting feature, will be welcome when implemented I use https://www.pdfescape.com but is limited and error-prone

Sorry a second time, but ergonomics and GUI is the key, not the discipline to a common behavior. The GUI should serve to better and speedier use and understanding of the relation of the app with the user. We all love the three apps, but this don't necessarily makes to be 'always' satisfied with 'all' their characteristics. This forums are not only interesting to discuss and solve problems, are also a pool of ideas and details that could be, eventually, important to designers of successive version of the apps.

Thanx to all Discussion very interesting, the capability isn't yet installed in AFPUB but it will surely be in any future. Both solutions are interesting, I'll try overstrike glyph and pinned line solutions (this last can be also interesting in certain applications like drawing obtuse angle over letters, or also old style abbreviature details like in icons and hand-written religious texts) Emilio

No, no, I don’t mean strikethrough ! What I mean is a line ON TOP of the characters/glyphs/letters, not through the middle or under those. Like the example I send. Emilio

Is there any method to make an overstrike or overline on (a) word(s) or character(s)? == a line like underlining but on top of the words instead of under the words (as the normal underline) (to make certain mathematical expressions in Affinity Designer and/or Publisher) Emilio

Sorry, but ergonomics and graphic user interface is the key

Yes I said this also. I only asked if adding those labels could be a good idea.... sic: Title In modern informatics, the GUI/Ergonomics is the key Thnx Walt

Hi for those people that don't have a BIG screen or our visual capability isn't exceptional.... screen real estate is not so big; when items doesn't have enough space in the contextual toolbar the exceeding are in a pop-up menu at the end of the bar under a double angle "»" in this menu, as seen in the screen copy I send, the buttons exist, but most of them with no indication of what they mean. I'm sure it's well done, as is the same procedure as in the toolbar, but .... could be interesting to have labels near the buttons? probably helpful (or waiting a time to let the pop-up help label appear, 🤷🏻‍♂️) Thnx Emilio

pagesetting involves using definite sizes and typesetting details etc .... so this automatics has nothing to do with . this capability y more near to some word processors...

yes clicking on a numerical field and using up-dwn arrow keys works ok, but.... it is generally necessary to confirm value change with enter/return to see effects. it would be welcome.... inmediate effect to be seen also, pls, for font size!

it would be very wellcome.... using one only tool (AFPUB) instead of two (AFPUB+pdfFormCreatingApp) with the advantages of fine tuning design all in one. please, if possible, put it in AFPUB roadmap (and not too late....) thnx

Hi Some problems in spanish localization (Otherwise, a good translation into spanish!!) (1) Texts too long..." Alcance: Documento"->Doc. || "Buscar en: Todos marcos de texto" ->Todos marcos txt || The second half of the conmuting button is not to be seen, but "Text Flow" in english version can be "Flujo de txt" || texts in next two checkboxes is too long and too compact and small... difficult to read: probably simply changing "tabla de contenido" to "TabCont" or "TabDeCont" (ie. "Detener en siguiente TabCont") (2) Propiedades button.... either button a bit longer or abbreviate Propiedades... with "Propiedades" (without "..."), or with "Props..." (3) Too long and difficult to understand "Retraso de la descripción de herramientas", can be abbreviated with "Retraso de ayuda herramientas" (4) Instead of "Ampliar" in this menu, better could be "Expandir" (5) Instead of "Cambiar interfaz de usuario" (difficult to understand what the command does, better could be "Ver/Ocultar interfase" or "Conmutar interfase" (6) In this pop-up menu change "Valor Predet." with "Predeterminado", and also could be a polite image that all language options are capitalized, and not only both Englishes (GB and American) and German.... "Español, Italiano, Português, Français, Русский" (I apologize for the big screenshots.... has to do with retina screen capture, surely) Emilio (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)

Hi all I prepared a special colour swatches CMYK palette in AfPub, to use same colours everywhere between AfPub, AfDesign and AfPhoto (on same or different projects). But the palette file (.afpalette) doesn't open neither in AfDesign nor in AfPhoto Is a bug?, have I something done wrong?, or would be interesting having interchangeable colour palettes for the whole Af suite?
