Hi, I've been working with a series of files for a month or so now and suddenly today when I tried to open the file i get the "The file appears to be corrupted" error message. This can't happen. Is there anyway to restore this file to get it to work? I did do the upgrade last week I believe but it didn't affect any other files that I can tell. Thanks, Ryan.

I was able to find a codec add-in that so far seems to work perfectly for displaying a lot of thumbnail types in a windows machine and affinity designer and affinity photo files are both working. I'm in the trial mode and so far so good. https://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/ Thanks, Ryan.

Hi, Struggling with adding text to a custom shape drawn by the pen tool. I've tried a few methods but every time i convert to a text shape, it just pastes in normally and doesn't stay confined inside the shape. I must be missing a step or just plain doing it wrong. I'm simply trying to wrap text around an image and though the best way would be create a vector shape. Can someone assist? Thanks, Ryan.

Hi, It's in the "effects" tab next to layers and the option is called 'outer shadow'. Make sure you have your object selected and then just adjust the radius and offset to display the shadow. If you don't have this option, then its not enabled under view->studio->effects in the top navigation bar. Ryan.

I had a similar problem and found the "show as list" option works best for me. You still get a thumbnail and as long as you name accordingly then it clears up most issues. Example of how i'm structuring the assets: Guides - Web - - 1170 | 1140 (* 1170px width with an 1140px container) - - 980 | 950 (...) Ryan.

Hi, I'm converting over from Fireworks and the one semi-important thing that I'm not finding is the ability to create a template/master page to lock elements into a fixed position for every page or artboard. Is there a work-a-round here or something I'm missing? I don't think assets or symbols will help with instant positioning so open to a ideas. The less clicks the better :blink: Thanks, Ryan.

Editing text in Affinity Designer
gr8rck replied to bikeman's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on Windows threads
Hi, Double-clicking the text does not work every time. Sometimes you have to use the "T" key to get inside a text layer. Not sure why but it does seem to happen more frequently now. You can split this into another post - i just hate to crowd the board with duplicate issues If i can avoid it. Ryan. -

Import Fireworks PNG
gr8rck replied to MCFC_4Heatons's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on Windows threads
This approach does a good job on keeping design elements in place. However, it stacks up all the text on top of each other in the upper corner. I would love to convert all my .fw files over to AD but this font issue makes it a painful process. Ryan. -
Hi, When dragging images into AD the layers panel shows focus on the image just for a few seconds then defaults back to layer below. It should keep imported image as selected I would think. A bit of a pain to keep having to re-choose the imported image layer. Thanks, Ryan.
