  1. We can close this thread.... If anyone else has this issue. Uninstall 2.1, close all Affinity processes, reinstall 2.1 and you should be good to go.
  2. I was working in a file, the app crashed and now when the program reopens it acts like its trying to load files from recovery but then the program just closes. No crash message, no alert, just closes. What is likely the issue here? It seems to be doing it on all files. I am able to see a thumbnail preview of the file in the my computer file manager. I did make an attempt to install 2.1 beta and have since uninstalled when that wouldn't work either. Please advise. gr8rck
  3. It's the foundation needed to be able to build a DAM system that includes Affinity formats along with other features you find in these systems.
  4. So we were able to create thumbnail previews for affinity files by writing custom code that we do plan to turn into a DAM solution at some point. I mention this because its certainly a doable task. I think it took us around a week to get the file previewer working properly. This was a V1 solution so we'll have to revisit and see if any issues for V2. We also reached out to a current DAM company in the past and they were also able to create the previewer for their software.
  5. I'm not able to install the 2.0.3 update on Windows 10. It goes through the download process and starts to install updates then the program just closes and re-opens and asks me again if I want to install the update. What is the solution? gr8rck
  6. Did you find the files in the user folder for mac? They are definitely saved there for PC and that saved me a few times. gr8rck
  7. Does anyone have Affinity thumbnail file previews working in Google Drive? gr8rck
  8. That put me right where I needed to be and I was able to find what I'm after. Thanks for the help on this, saved me big time. Ryan.
  9. Affinity has crashed a few times recently and my files are recoverable when I know where they are to open them but is there a cached folder location where I can find those versions more easily to recover? gr8rck
  10. Hi, My affinity designer export settings aren't exporting optimized images in png or jpg for the web. Using compression tools, I'm finding that my exported files at 72 dpi are still almost 75% too large even when flattened. What setting am I missing to make sure the images are optimized properly without running my images through additional tools? Gr8rck
  11. I know, you'd think it wouldn't be that difficult with motivated vendors. Must be some magical formula that isn't published to make this work in the web. Thanks for posting... Ryan.
  12. Appreciate that.. i am already running it so I'm all good in desktop views. It has to do with web-based services where they don't have the previewer. Most online tools have previews for the major file types (doc, pdf, ai, pdf, jpg, png, etc..) but nothing for affinity yet that i've found. Ryan.
  13. Has anyone found a DAM vendor that supports the affinity thumbnail previews? I asked about this quite a while ago and was told the previewer code or codec ships with windows but so far in the last 6 months I've not found a vendor that can support the preview feature. They've been willing to add it but say its not currently possible. Any advise on where to look or what to actually have them look for? I've checked with 7 willing vendors so far and come up empty each time for implementation. Thanks, Ryan.
  14. I'll have to figure that out. I have looking to switch more to publisher for it's master page controls. I'll check out the macros and see if that's a strong work-a-round. Thanks for the suggestion. Ryan.
  15. Sure. I have anywhere between 10 - 30 artboards with layouts, per file. I'm looking to be able to quickly create artboards inside of the file, along with naming them quickly. That's the reason i was asking about artboards from csv or document file. Just duplicating the artboards is a lot of work, especially when you have to name them and the number varies. If you could toggle to the names of the artboards that would help, but still not ideal. Thanks, Ryan.
