Same here. Using Colin’s file is very slow here. As I tested in my first post with fonts. I’m using a MacBook Pro Late 2013, Catalina 10.15.2 beta 3 and AP 1.8.0.502

Hi, I have report similar behaviour with AP. My document had about 200 pages, after do everything you suggest, link images, document at 72 ppi, the performance was so low. I noticed that the worst performance was obtained managing simple text. AP takes around 2-3 seconds to just modify any the letters of a word. Recently I have notice that with a 22 pages document, with the same conditions of the first one, again the performance of the text flow was extremely low. Regards

Sorry guys for the late replay. Disabling everything you mention before doesn't change anything. I have found 2 things. Everything that needs a live preview of changes like, font selection, color selection from wheel, text changing, ... decreases considerately the performance with big documents. I have recoded 2 videos: 1 of them showing how much time takes the action of manipulate fonts. 2 video showing how copying and paste an object works relatively fine but copying the same object using option key (I think due the live preview of it) takes much more time. Also I have attach a capture of the activity monitor showing the great amount of resources Affinity takes only with those kind of modifications. Another ones like vector lines, object movements, ... shows a normal Activity with the software. Finally I can tell you that this only happens with big documents, even set with linked images and 72 dpi's, with small documents everything works fast and fine. Thanks Copy_low_performance.mov Text_low_performance.mov

After work 2 weeks with that large document (220 pages, 72 dpi and linked images) I have notice that the big lag of performance appears when I work with fonts (text). For example, I can copy, paste , move, objects and every time I can see the beach ball about 3 seconds until the system refresh. No problem with this. When I edit, change, modify or similar any text, the beach ball takes around 20 seconds every modification I do. Another example, if I select a text and I select directly from the panel a text style it takes around 3 seconds to refresh but if I select the same text and I go to the fonts menu trying to select any of them it takes around 20 seconds to refresh. Also if I don't select the fonts list (that maybe it has to preview), just changing bold, light, or the font size. Hope this could help to improve a GREAT app even more. Thanks

Hi, Following thomaso advices I expose my results: The document resolution has changed to 72 dpi. (Still same performance) All images are linked. All images are store locally. Only this document is opened. Only publisher is opened. Any other app. I tried changing the API from Metal to OpenGL with same results. When I open the document the fan inside my Mac starts running and the Activity monitor shows this In the moment I closed the 222 pages document everything goes to normal and fans becomes off. Could be the optimization of macOS Catalina. Actually I'm using beta 5.

Hi guys, Actually I’m working on a manual that has 222 pages. My Mac is a MacBook PRO 15” Late 2013. It is A4, 800 dpi (I need people can do zooming without lose resolution) and the 15 images it has are all embedded , sorry, linked. The rest of items inside are 100% vectors with effects, like shadows, transparency, etc... Metal is enabled. I have extrematelly low performance in the document. When I do a change I have to wait about 30 seconds seeing the beach ball running until it is applied. What can I do? Thanks

Same issues here. See first post updated.

Thanks carl123, I can see the bug has been logged. The unique thing we can do is to wait for the fix.

Hi, I'm having issues with the correct visualization of the cells at table. Thanks [UPDATE] Still having same issue with new beta 305. See video. Table selection fixes in instances where table has been scaled Table row / column header fixes in instances where table has been scaled For me this is not working fine. Table headers issue 1.7.0.305.mov

Hi guys, I have finished that design and I find that when I exported it to PDF the result is very bad. I have tried many options without good results. In the attached files you can see the settings and the final result. Any idea? AP_Result.pdf

Mine is Spanish so I'm in the same situation jeje... I think I understand the procedure. "Framon" you are right. First you have to manage the format you want at every cell. Text, fonts, position, fill, etc... after this you have to select which format you want to be applied to every cell. "See the image". The final result is that the table will respect the format you applied at every cell to make the composition. See video. Possibilities has no limits as in the text style edition field you can select many adjustments for just the text inside every cell. UPDATE: The unique thing I can't find is how to export the format you have created. As you do with your Assets or Styles. Every document starts with the default table format. Video.mov

Hi, Could you please explain me how to use the table format? I can't understand how can I have, for example, this pattern every file added automatically. When I try to select 1 file and apply a fill it is applied to the full table. Thanks

Of course. Thanks

After do this I can move the rulers and select them but still not appearing the icon to block them.

Sorry after update I can't find ruler enabler and rules are disabled for me. Can't use them. Could be?
