text on a path on cut ovals in AD?
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I created 3 elipses without text>convert to curves> added 2 nodes> clicked both>break curve. Thanks guys, didn't even have to leave Apub : ) -
Some of the contextual toolbar like bullet list show tips, but the ones on the right don't. My tool tips delay is the same as yours. But so glad you sent me to setting. I upped my black and white contrast; much easier for me to see.

text on a path on cut ovals in AD?
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I tried that; didn't work. I think I'll just copy the section I want with the pen tool in AD and copy/paste the text from the elipses. More or less what @Alfred indicated. -
Amazing @Old Bruce it was simply centering. Found it on top menu but not in paragraph style; is it there? What is the arrow with lines under it and a P symbol on the right side? Nothing happens when I click it

I still can't get my TOC to give me indents when I shift return for a 2nd line. Plus everytime I update my TOC 2nd line indents get wonky. I've attached a single page with the TOC with wonky 2nd line indents. Problem is obvious though you can't update as nothing to update to. Thanks for you patience. TOC trouble.afpub

You can set negative #s in Paragraph>Decoration, there is an indent checkbox. Possible there is a way to put an asterisk outdented there. I need to learn more on this. Really interesting.

Finally got it. I suppose hanging indents are impossible where an asterisk or # hang outside of the text frame.

Where in text styles?
-
In this short short video it shows I should be able to use the ruler, but when I try no top arrow. I tried looking it up in @Alfred's Affinity Publisher manual, but couldn't find though I got tons of finds. I used to do 2nd line and hanging indents all the time in InDesign.

Apub v2 blows out excel data
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
So formats are for color, stroke, etc only. No text formatting included? Good thought @bbrother: You have to deal with what is and live with the hope that it will be improved by developers in the future- 14 replies

Apub v2 blows out excel data
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Make the table in Apub. Copy paste from Excel. Format in Apub. See screenshot It does work @lacerto A lot of duplicating effort. I had previously tried saving an Apub table format, but the text style didn't come thru with the table format. I need to figure out how to deal with table as I'd prefer content creators to give me excel files. This time I got pdfs with a ton of little text boxes.- 14 replies

Apub v2 blows out excel data
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
My solution: Place pdf in AD, remove mask on table, copy>paste AD table into Apub. Does Apub come with any table formats, or format templates, so I wouldn't need to format in Excel. Of course it would be nice to paste excel directly into Apub. Interesting thread. Thanks for the help.- 14 replies

character - leading override paragraph - leading and Space Before and Space After paragraph text style - leading and Space Before and Space After table cells - Space Before and Space After in paragraph panel text frame>top menu> leading Anything else? I did fix the issue using override leading. What is the default for override leading that will leave my leading alone. If there is a tutorial on this I'd love to watch it. -
affinity publisher leading
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
So to deal with leading I have to use the character panel, the paragraph panel and the text frame. Eek that's a lot of panels -
affinity publisher leading
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I do see it in text styles screenshot that I sent under paragraph spacing. I thought leading was in paragraph panel and on the top menu bar, too. -
affinity publisher leading
kat replied to kat's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Right you are @Alfred Found it in Publisher's Manual. But still confused. Need to read more in the Manual. Override leading is in the character panel. I thought leading was in paragraph panel and on the top menu bar. But now I can't find it. Onward
