    Your advice is very much appreciated and I thank you for it, but alas, this is all well above my pay grade. I attach the file in question and, if you would, please tell me what settings I need to change to correct the problem so far as is possible. Thank you in advance. Vector Crossover Test.afdesign

    Lot of info here ... trying to get my head around it at the moment

    I don't know if there's a solution to my problem but it literally does my head in. I place one vector on top of another - not exactly - and an edge appears that I don't want. There are no effects on these two vectors at all. Any help with this issue? Image attached. The second image is an example of the problem when I put the texture on clothing.

    Thank you RCR ... This is more than my question was about. Thank you for your response though

    That's exactly what I mean Walt. Thank you. I had a big file I was working on today. In the end I had to copy the groups etc and paste them into AD 1 again. Now I can work on them easily. Affinity? What were you thinking of?
  6. Martigny
    Recently updated to Affinity Designer 2 and I love it except for one thing. It's very difficult to identify groups now and groups within groups now (which I have a lot of). This was so clear in Affinity Design 1. Could groups not be made bolder making them easier to identify? Have pasted 2 images to show the difference between the two.

    Okay thanks Garry. I got it now

    Sure .. edited and Image attached

    Confused here. Affinity help shows this. https://affinity.help/photo/en-US.lproj/index.html?page=pages/LiquifyPersona/liquify_panelMesh.html?title=Mesh panel Where is this mesh panel? Anyone know? Thank you

    Thanks Walt. unfortunately that won't work for me at all. My documents are usually 17.25in x 8.75in and I'd lose most of the page. Perhaps this is something Affinity could add to Publisher. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see one spread at a time.

    Thanks for your reply, but I was referring to when I'm working on the document.

    After a few days of using Publisher beta I'm finding some things a little frustrating. One main thing is that I'm unable to view a single page without the previous and next pages showing above and below it - see attached file. Is there any way to do this? Single Page View.afpub

    Thank you Jon. That's a big help to me.

    Thanks for your response. The images are only on my hard drive in one place. I have since discovered that I can update the images through the resource manager - however, I would have expected this to be an automatic process when a file is linked. I would still like to know why there is a cache of images that are no longer in my files.

    Point 1. I decided to try to put a pdf together in AP Beta. I successfully created a pdf. The following day I accidentally deleted it, which was not really a big deal as I needed to update many of the images (.jpg). I was surprised that when I created a brand new pdf with the updated images, Publisher placed the old images! How is this possible? Point 2. Also, I can see no way to 'refresh' images. Point 3. All my images are linked, but do not update.

    Unfortunately the APhoto method converts my vectors to pixels and I don't want that. My option is now to 'painstakingly manipulate each letter'
  17. Martigny
    That looks pretty cool. Thanks Carl ... I'll give it a go.
  18. Martigny
    Thanks for your reply v_kyr. I did actually try that and although it looks better it's not quite the result I want. I would ideally like the text to 'mould to the shape', if you know what I mean.

    Hi, Does anyone have any idea how to fit text to a banner so that it looks nicer than the example I've attached? I need it to fit between the red lines. Banner.afdesign

    Hoping this is sorted. Can't work on a Beta for my project right now - too risky
  21. Martigny
    Grrr ... just discovered this problem after thinking that the AD file would be saved with the changes I made in Publisher
  22. Martigny
    Thanks for the information Patrick - this is good to know. Unfortunately, I don't have time to test this beta at the moment as I'm busy illustrating a book and can't risk losing anything. I look forward to 1.8.0 being released.

    Thanks for looking at the problem Gear maker - and for your reply.
  24. Martigny
    Thank you Joachim ... not sure how that happened or while the opacity can be set from the effects panel. All sorted now though.
  25. Martigny
    Hi all, The attached file shows a recurring problem, which is: I was tracing over an image and so set the opacity low so that I could see what I was tracing over. When I had finished, I removed the opacity on the slider so that it was 100%, but nothing happened, the opacity remained. Copying and pasting to the same and a new document did not work, neither did opening it on another machine - both Windows and Mac. There is no gradient or transparency set, all opacity sliders are set to 100% and no matter what colour I select, going from transparent to deepest black, the opacity remains. The only solution was to retrace at 100%, which I did. Any ideas? Opacity.afdesign
