UPDATE... Solution found... Well, the solution in this case was to re-install all the V1 apps from MAC Time Machine. With that all settings incl. assets, brushes etc where also recovered. This said, without Time Machine, I'm not sure what I would have had to do to recover all settings and assets. Just wanted to update to give a solution if it happens to any one else. Cheers, Chris

I'm an Idiot! Today I installed all new V2 apps. Unfortunately, in my enthusiasm, I deleted the V1 apps before thinking. Now, all my brushes, templates, custom short cuts, default settings and resources are gone! Luckily I have MAC Time Machine so I was wondering if some one can help me restore all or some of my settings. If remotely possible? I have no clue! Many thanks in advance, Chris

I would just to forward you and summit this video on Youtube, concerning these famous white lines artefacts that often appear in between a finished seamless pattern. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY5w297Lw24 When creating seamless patterns, with a design that is multiplied to create the pattern, more often than not a white line artefact will appear between the designs. This has been driving me nuts for sometime, but in this video, the author seems to understand the issue exceptionally well. Maybe you guys at Serif can find a way to solve the problem and implement a solution - to what seems to be a complicated issue - to make the most fantastic product even greater 😄 Hopes this helps. Happy holidays and merry christmas to all, Best Chris

Ok, I just ticked the force pixel alignment and it seems to be working Now, when I export the document I do not see the lines anymore. I suppose that they are visible in the document so that one can see where the items connect while working. Next... 😄 Thanks

Hi everyone, I am desperately trying to create seamless patterns in Designer. I am not new to this, but it is just not working. No matter what I do (I've tried to change settings, snapping etc...) those white lines keep appearing. And there is absolutely nothing I can do. The whole point of seamless is absurd, when 1px seems to sabotage the work. This is driving me crazy, anybody knows a solution? I've read through the forum, but no solution in sight Help much appreciated. Thanks all Chris

Affinity Deleting/Uninstalling All Assets When Editing Categories
Smoere replied to wrc04's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
Hello every one, Ok, so this just happened to me too. Affinity photo crashed 5 consecutive times, each time, I tried to DELETE a category (I tried different ones) On the last booting, I had lost all my assets, everything gone, the assets is now empty. I read through the posts and tried to find it in my Time Machine but there is nothing there. I followed the instructions This is what I have MAC app store download: users\username\Library\Application Support\Affinity Designer\user\ but there is nothing there. NOT EVEN my Affinity Photo folder.!? Would appreciate if someone can help, this is really annoying, to say the least. Many tanks Chris AP version 1.9.2 -
#Walt.farrell thank you, I will.

Ok, many thanks for all the great input. I hope affinity is reading this post. Hopefully in the future they'll be able to integrate some smart solution to solve this challenge. Cheers, Chris

Hi guys, thanks for the replies. Yes I am looking for a way to automate the synchronisation of the assets folders of both (or three incl. Publisher) apps without having to export/import. Especially every time I add an assets in one app, I need to start the whole export/import process all over again I have a MAC and just checked where the assets.propcol file is. So it's actually in three different folders, one for each application. So no common assets folder for all. A folder based approach is in my eyes the easiest way to solve the challenge Hope that could be an interesting feature for a future upgrade for an otherwise really great great product Many thanks Chris

Hello every one, I use both Affinity Photo and Designer and have started importing and working a lot with assets, which is a great great tool. But I cannot find a way, how to automatically share the assets elements between the apps automatically. Is there any clever way, that allows Affinity to updat or synchronise the assets automatically between the apps? Or do I need to manually import them, each and every time I create a new asset in any of the apps. At the moment, f. eg I export the assets from Photo in order to reimport it into Designer and the other way round. Very time consuming and I'm sure there must be a better way, just cannot find it. Many thanks for some support and suggestions. Cheers, Chris

Thanks so much, I feel kind of stupid! Obvious, isn't it!? Was looking for a more - absurd - technical solution. Thanks C

Hello, I purchased the 108 brushes, which are an amazing product. But I am looking for a feature I cannot find. Nor has any friend graphic artist come up with a solution this far. Q: Is there any way to embed or a pattern/photo into the smoke brushes? I've tried t find a way, to fill the brush (inner glow) with something else than a colour from the colour palette, but apparently there is no way of doing so. I've tried different overlay alternatives, but no luck. Would appreciate your feed back and support. Thanks Smoere

I'm trying to use the smoke brushes, but I have difficulties putting them into action. I just cannot figure out how to colourize them (once they are created), they stay black no matter what colour I choose. And I have no idea how to give them "fire" look for example. Does some one maybe know a video (link) where these smoke brushes are explained how to exactly use them (incl. w layers, fill etc...). I've of course looked at YT but nothing cuts it. Probably there is some obvious answer, I just cannot find it. Many thanks C

Hello all, my app crashed fo an unknown reason and and since then I have not been able to re-open it any more. I have tried to uninstall it and reinstall again several times. I have tried to delete all related AP files. Without success. Each time I try to open the app, I need to force quit, otherwise it eats up all my ressources on my MAC Someone any idea what is wrong and how to solve the issue? Many thanks Chris System macOS Sierra Processor: 3,3 GHz Intel Core i5 Memory: 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
