Thanks you all for your input. I closed and opened the document again and this time the sliders in preferences worked. Cheers, H.

Thanks for your help. Yes, I saw & tried that, but it made no observable difference to the workspace background. Maybe workspace colour is something Affinity might look into. Cheers, H.

Hi, I'd like to set a colour (not the default black) for the workspace background which is different to the document area, but I can't see how to do this. Can anyone help please? Cheers, H.

Thanks Walt Farell, I’ll repost in the appropriate group.

I've edited the original post and corrected my error.

So sorry v-kyr, I was wrong to say Designer - it was the latest version of Publisher that I used.

Hi, I used to use PagePlus on my PC to create multipage A5 centre stapled booklets printed via my Desktop printer on A4 paper. PagePlus would create imposition PDF files that I could then save or print to produce the booklets. PagePlus's ability to sort the pages into order - including putting the front page and back page together made life a dream. I can't see how to end up with the same result using Affinity Publisher on my iMac. Can anyone help? Thanks, Hal.

I had asked the question, or at least a similar question earlier, last year I think, and was told it was expcted to be pit this summer. Rather dissapointed that ot's taking so long.

What it says on the tin... Do you have a release date for Publisher yet? This year, next year, sometime, ever? Regards, Hal.

Glad to hear that. Sooner, the better, Affinity. Sooner the better.

Dies it remain the company's intention to launch such a product?

Hi, Is there any further news on an Affinity DTP product to replace Serif's PagePlus? Cheers, Hal.

Hi, Any news on when the Affinity version of PagePlus will be released?

Thanks for this information, though not at all what I wanted to hear. While I'm glad that, at last, with Affinity, there's a product range mimicing the versatility (and price) of Serif's X range, designed to work across all platforms (PC / Mac / Tablet / Mobile), I cannot understand why no one thought to incorporate a way to translare/transfer Serif X range to Affinity. I'm not alone in having numerous (hundreds) of files containing all sorts of text, picture and/or drawings, each with complex format settings - and that it comes as a blow to lean that the only way to get files incorporated is by importing them as PDFs. Is there no way to provide a fle conversion utility - I'm sure it would be welcomed - heck, I'd even pay for it!

What plans, if any, are there to move the existing legacy products over to Affinity? I'm particularly interested to know what the plans are regarding PagePlus. Is tha something Affinity is working on? Cheers, H.
