[Designer 2.0.3 Synchronise defualts does not include fill]

Hi all,

This is still and issue in 2.0.4.  Any chance it will be fixed in 2.1?

Thanks,

Karl

@walt.farrell Many thanks for the quick reply.  The synchronise works for both stroke and fill with the Rectangle and Ellipse tools but not with the Pen tool.  As you say, making multiple polygons works the same as using the Synchronise Defaults from Selection icon.  Either way, using the Pen tool, there is no fill.

I don't have screen recording at the moment.

Thanks

Karl

When selecting a polygon with a stroke and fill, and then clicking on the sychronise defaults function , then creating a new polygon, the new polygon only includes the stroke but not the fill.

[Locked layer items still selectable]

That's done it!

Many thanks.

[Locked layer items still selectable]

I can confirm this is an issue on the Windows version as well.

[Lock Layer doesn't lock individual elements on this layer]

I am having a similar problem in version 1.8.3.641. Windows version

The symptoms are as follows.

Scenario 1

With,
- Edit All Layers OFF
- All layers locked
- All layers visible OR Not

Use Marquee select (Move tool, click and drag)

All items in the most recently selected layer are selected and will be deleted with the delete or backspace key (corners and midpoints of bounding box are circles)

Scenario 2

With,

- Edit All Layers ON
- All layers locked (even when individual items are locked within a layer)
- All layers visible

Use Marquee select (Move tool, click and drag)

If the Marquee is clicked far enough out, all items are selected and will be deleted with the delete or backspace key (corners and midpoints of bounding box are Xs)

If the Marquee is clicked closer in, the result is variable.  Clicking and draging close in to an object with the Marquee may not select the object the first time but will on a second or third try.

Scenario 3

As Scenario 2 but with layers NOT visible, the Marquee will not select anything.

In effect, the layers are not lockable when using the Marquee except in Scenario 3.

This behaviour is a serious problem generally and in particular when wanting to select items from a number of layers but leave others in place.

It doesn't seem to make sense that items on a locked layer can be selected and deleted.

Many thanks.

 

[300 dpi export shows as 72 dpi in PhotoShop]

If you are using Windows, what does that say the EXIF dpi is.?

 

Properties>Details  Image gives 72

So does xmp Raw Data in PS.

[300 dpi export shows as 72 dpi in PhotoShop]

Thanks for the additional comments.  My concern is pragmatic.  I was asked for a 300dpi image for printing and when I checked in AP after resizing, it said 72.  I did not want to get an email back saying I had sent the wrong resolution - and then email back saying, 'trust me' or 'put it into InDesign and it should register as 300dpi.....  

[300 dpi export shows as 72 dpi in PhotoShop]

Thanks for the reply.  Good to know I'm not hallucinating. I still think it's worth being a squeaky wheel - otherwise there won't be any oil....

[300 dpi export shows as 72 dpi in PhotoShop]

I have found this remains an issue - which is in my view is very significant in terms of both user experience and functionality.

 

This is what happens.

 

Open a photo taken on a phone in AP and in Document>Resize Document it reads Size: 3104pt x 1746pt; DPI 72

Open the same photo in PS and in Image>Image Size it reads Size: 3104pt x 1746pt; DPI 72

Original file size is 1.896MB

 

Change the resolution in AP: Document>Resize Document>DPI 300>uncheck Resample>click Resize

Reopen Document>Resize Document it reads Size: 745pt x 419; DPI 300 <cancel>

Export the file to jpeg File>Export...>Export Settings size shows as 3104x1746>click Export

File size is now 5.499MB

 

Open the _exported_ jpeg in AP and in Document>Resize Document it reads Size: 3104pt x1746pt; DPI 72

Open the same file in PS and in Image>Image Size it reads Size: 3104pt x 1746pt; DPI 72

?!

 

Place the exported image in an InDesign Document and check the Link information

Links>select image and it reads Actual PPI: 300; Dimensions: 3104pt x 1746pt

?!!

 

THEN

 

Change the resolution in PS: Image>Image Size>DPI 300>uncheck Resample>click OK

Save file as jpeg File>Save As...> click Save

File size is now 4.357MB

Open File in AP, Document>Resize Document it reads Size: 745pt x 419; DPI 300 <cancel>

 

 

This is to say, the resolution has clearly been changed but neither AP nor PS is able to display the correct information.

 

The same thing happens whether the file is exported before or after saving the file as and .afphoto and even after closing and reopening the .afphoto file.

 

Thanks for any help in the matter.

I'd like to add support for this feature - glad it looks like a straightforward task.

 

Just to add - great work.

 

Thanks.
