Publisher update totally trashed my installation
willernest replied to ROBING's topic in V1 Bugs found on Windows
You might want to try to reboot and reinstall. There's been a regular problem with updating any of the Affinity apps. The update deletes the existing install but fails to reinstall. Usually a reboot takes care of it. It has something to do with Windows "mood" at the time. -
I just uploaded a crash report. Rotating a picture in a frame -90 degrees. Base document was created in 1.7.3.481 and had some prior editing in 1.8. Unable to reproduce taking the same steps in .556 on a new document.

Is it still worth reporting that updating the beta versions (and generally to release versions) fail after the point where the previous version was uninstalled? I've sent logs a couple of times but apparently they weren't informative. Just restart the PC and install the software as if it wasn't an update. Works and not that much of a problem but still kind of klunky. On rare occasions an update might work so there is apparently a right way to do things. Posted here simply because it seems more active. By the way, no exotic software.

Attached is the log file from the failed install - picked Publisher as the last. All three apps show the same behavior. Somehow it doesn't think it has the necessary permission to install. This has been an on and off things - currently apparently on. With a reboot, all three will install without complaint. SetupUI.log

.464 install fails - AD & AP
willernest posted a topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on Windows threads
The install of the .445 versions went flawlessly. Now again the .464 versions fail (the application is removed but something stuck) and require a reboot. Then they install as a new installations and work fine. The StudioLink works as well.. It may be related - Windows did an automatic install of the 2019-08 maintenance for 1903 last night and got stuck on restart (and updated fine on a reboot). -

Beta updates STILL failing
willernest replied to Rick G's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on Windows threads
It might be worth trying the newest publisher update .442. For the first time in memory, it updated on my machine (Win 10 1903) without a hitch. All previous attempts required a reboot. -
Publisher at .422. Downloaded Photo at .434 and StudioLink successfully linked. Downloaded Designer at .434 and StudioLink failed (says get beta). Uninstalled Designer beta and reinstalled. Same situation. Looked for earlier approaches - go to …\appinfo\Beta and delete Designer Release.appinfo. After most recent installed of Designer beta there is nothing under that directory. For non-beta (Release directory) there is both Designer Release.appinfo and Photo Release.appinfo and of course for the Release version StudioLink worked out of the box (realizing that it didn't for many). Windows 10 version 1903. What next?

Perhaps this has been suggested before. I haven't found the search function to be very selective. In Publisher you can change the fill of the Frame portion of a text frame. In Designer you can only change the Text portion. It would seem that the code exists to support this feature in Designer (and perhaps eliminate some duplicate code) so I suggest that that function be added. I had earlier asked a question and was fortunately pointed to this solution for my current project.

I thought it was a fluke but I experienced the same thing, slightly differently. I deleted a set of styles (imported in earlier betas) and then re-imported them. On the import they no longer showed in the list but when trying again they showed as already installed. A restart showed them there. The same thing happens with the current Publisher beta.

I've created a text frame from a circle. At that point you can easily change the color of the circle. Convert it to a text frame. Type in some text. Once you're in a text frame, the various options for color are then associated with the text itself. How does one go back and change the background color of the circle?
