  1. As an aside, a few feature requests once these bugs are resolved: An 'Update All' option so that all linked files can be updated in one go An option to make the default mode of for Place... to be linked files rather than embedded
  2. Still having a few problems. Having now managed to open the Resource Manager, I can see there are two entries, one for each time I've placed the artwork. All good to that point. I presume because they are Embedded the Update option is greyed out. That makes sense. So I converted the one that needed updating to Make Linked first. First problems: It requires relocating the file (not a huge problem but I'd have thought it would be possible to remember the file location so this is automatic) All files are greyed out making it look like none can be selected (see screen shot). Despite being greyed out, it is possible to select the right file and replace the embedded file with a linked one All seems good except then it is still displaying incorrectly. So I click the Update button hoping that it will refresh the linked file. Nothing happens. I then choose Replace instead to see if this resolves it. Also doesn't work.
  3. I have quit and reloaded Publisher and now it is there. Still, a strange bug especially as the shortcuts showed it was there as an option but that nothing would happen.
  4. Well in that case the bug is very strange indeed. I can assure you I am not...
  5. I've found that the resource manager is listed in the shortcuts within preferences. I have added a shortcut to see if I could load it that way but no joy with that either.
  6. That seems to be missing from the menu. As does the 'media browser' which the help docs say should be in the 'view' menu.
  7. Sure, OK, thanks. Betraying my lack of knowledge of Designer a bit! I thought you meant it visibly was within the limits of the artboard rather than nested within it in the layer panel. This seems a bit counterintuitive given when exporting a PDF it includes all of the visible artwork. Anyway, having fixed this in the afdesign file, how do I get Publisher to refresh / update the linked file? I've managed to place the file again and it now shows up as expected but can't find anything for refreshing the original link.
  8. Hi Chris I'd rather not put the file on the public forum because it is our company branding. Can I email it direct? Also, all the artwork is within the artboard in the .afdesign file. The bounding box for the placed file is correct for the artboard but part of the content doesn't show. See screen grabs below. Robin
  9. I've investigated further and it is something with how Publisher interprets the Artboard I think. I found the dropdown menu to select 'document' or 'artboard' and choosing document the full artwork appeared. There is only one artboard in the placed file so I'm not sure what's going on here.
  10. Hi Firstly, great to finally have the BETA!!! Just installed and testing out a few things. Placed a .PSD file perfectly. Strangely, placed a .AFDESIGN file and part of the artwork does not display. It is a logo / branding so I'd rather not share the actual artwork here but I am happy to email directly to Affinity for further investigation. thanks Robin
