Thanks Sean P For now, knowing not to toggle UI and close down is going to keep my sane. Looking forward to 1.8 ✌️

Hi all - so my AD keeps sporadically resetting on open, where I have to go to: View > Show Context Toobar View > Show Toolbar View > Show Tools View > Studio > and uncheck Hide Studio to get me back to how I last left it. I think it happens mostly when I open a file without first launching AD but it's too sporadic to pin-point (I forget). I know 'tab' toggles the UI. AD version 1.7.2 MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) OSX 10.14.6 Thanks V

Thanks - Looking forward to that. When is 1.7 due?

Hello all - I seem to have a problem getting grids to work properly. My artboard is 297 x 210mm. If you look at the first image and note the spacing of the 2nd axis, it's 10mm which into 210mm is equally divided. If I then add to the1st axis a spacing of 148.5 (second image) the grid shifts. If I divid the 1st axis further, it keeps shifting (image 3). What the hell is going on / have I missed? Thanks

Thanks. I didn't realise this but also my panel was blank but a reboot seems to of fixed it. Thanks again :)

I'm trying to stop my returns spacing being off in comparison to my leading on body text, and I believe I can do that via the Before and After Paragraph settings but I can't find them. Where are they? I'm on Mac / AD 1.5.5 This is all I have in my para panel: https://www.dropbox.com/s/kdgottig6tpe8ow/Screenshot%202017-04-26%2014.36.46.png?dl=0

Managed to get a pretty good approximation. In PS you would: Grayscale > Duotone (or Mono / Triple etc) > Select colors and then convert back to CMYK to get the same visual effect, working in CMYK did this: Menu > Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map Adjustment then in the panel I set the'first' and 'last' colors in the slider and deleted the middle one. If there better ways. Be good to know about it.

Does Affinity Photo or Designer have a Monotone / Duotone / Tripletone to create this sort of effect: http://www.adweek.com/files/imagecache/node-detail/news_article/spotify-side-hed-2016.png Referring to the headshot image. Thanks!

My mistake, its the Polar Grid Tool that is used to create concentric circles. Starting to forget Ai already!

Yep, thats how I did it. Wondered if there was an easier way. Thanks. Thanks for the help everyone.

Thanks for the rely - unfortunately that gives a smaller gap each time (check link). Does affinity have a Blend (as in Illustrator) tool or something like the Spiral tool, do you know? https://www.dropbox.com/s/xx4meutho4zs08o/Screenshot%202016-08-26%2012.15.13.png?dl=0

What is the best / quickest way to achieve precise spaced concentric circles. In Illustrator I'd use the spiral tool. Thanks https://www.dropbox.com/s/blqam2akluzmc0s/Screenshot%202016-08-26%2010.07.56.png?dl=0
