Wow! Fabulous! I hope it didn't drain away any resources from the 1.8 launch! 
thanks!

@carl123, Cool, thanks for that feedback. 

I'll recreate it in 1.8 and be on my way. 

Peace,

[When try to open 1.7 document publisher crash]

Hello,

I'm able to open most, if not all, of my documents created prior to 1.8, but there is 1 file that causes a crash when I try to open it. I've attached it to this post.

[Dead end UI when Dock is anchored to bottom of screen]

No, I don't need the Dock all the time, but it took me quite a bit of time to figure out what to do. It was pretty frustrating to be partway through a file and then have to Force Quit to get out of the dead end. Obviously, now that I know of this workaround, that's no longer an issue, but should it be an issue at all?

[Dead end UI when Dock is anchored to bottom of screen]

With a 13" MBP mid-2012 and the Apple Dock anchored to the bottom of the screen, there is a window combination where you would be required to Force Quit or go to Preferences and change where the Dock attaches. Example:

 

 

 

 

[Placed Images seem to ignore "Properties" setting of the Picture Frame]

I'm not a pre-press/designer person so this may be normal but when I create a Picture Frame and then place an image it is often scaled differently than the original. This happens even if I go into the Properties panel and select the "None" option for scaling prior to placing the image. Often, after placing the image and then replacing the image, the scaling really gets weird. 

I've done this with a png file and an AD 1.7.0 file and it happens with both. Apologies in advance if I just don't know what I'm doing!

Reproduced in 399.

1. Open new file

2. In the default Master...

3. Draw Picture Frame (70mm wide x 180mm, slightly smaller than the image to be placed)

4. Click on the "Properties" button.

5. Specify, No Scaling

6. Click on "Place Image Tool"

Image will be "scaled." Certainly not original size. 

Check "Resources" panel. Placed DPI will be different than the original file.

[Why does this .tif file open only in Develop persona?]

Solution: AP 1.7.0 release version opens these properly.

[Why does AP open my B&W scans as color "RAW" files?]

Solution: AP 1.7.0 opens these properly.

[Imposition: sheets per signature]

Hi David,
I make self-published books, also. I use imposeonline.com which is free and very basic, but it works.

I wish imposition in Publisher were more robust, too. 

good luck

[Why does this .tif file open only in Develop persona?]

Archive.zip 2017 033 - 18.tif only opens in "Develop persona, whereas 2017 033 - 19.tif opens as expected.

[how can i get my money back ? sick of crashing]

Ian, just about 3 days ago I was at this point, too. The thing is, Affinity wants you to use their customer "beta" NOT the released app. The stability betas usually solve most issues. Give it a try.

[Why does AP open my B&W scans as color "RAW" files?]

Hi,

I'm trying to understand why Photo opens my black and white scans as RAW color files. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

I'm using scans from Epson Scan 3.9.4 at grayscale/16bit and saving them as .tif files with an embedded Epson 1.8 Gamma grayscale profile. 

 

Tried opening them with both Photo Beta 1.5.2 beta 5 and official release Photo 1.5.1

 

thanks,

[.tif files opening in "Develop" persona]

Not sure how I corrupted the .tif files, but that seems to be at the root of this issue. I was able to successfully open other .tifs (though none from the current batch--a roll of 35mm negatives). I'm planning on rescanning to create fresh .tifs.

[.tif files opening in "Develop" persona]

Hi, I've been using Photo to open my scanned .tif files.

 

Up to this point, it has worked great. However, yesterday, I scanned a bunch of film and the files are opening with the "Develop" persona selected and it says the files have no profile so it is assigning one. 

This is new behavior for me. Prior to this, the photos have opened in the Photo persona and I've cropped and adjusted with no issue. Now, it appears I've got to actually Develop the file before I can continue.
 

I'm using 1.5.1 on Mac OS 10.12.2 and this has been my configuration for about the last week or so, at least, so something seems to have changed within the last couple days, but I can't figure out what.

 

I re-installed Photo but that doesn't seem to have helped.

Thanks,

Marcus
