Same error here but with Google Drive (not Google File Stream) where files are stored locally. I used to use GFS but switched to GD because of the issues it was causing in Affinity. @MEB do you have any tips for restoring the file or is there a way I can submit the file to you guys for analysis (if that would be helpful). Thanks

I'm having the same problem. Uploaded the problematic file to that Dropbox link. For what it's worth I'm using Affinity Designer with Google File Stream. AD and GFS have always had a testy relationship in my experience, but this is the first time it refuses to open a file. UPDATE: tried opening the file in Publisher and it opened right up. Then tried it in Designer again and it opened right up there as well. I guess Publisher must have sorted something out in the file.

I get that it would take a lot of work to build a fully featured HTML/CSS exporter, and I understand VIPStephan's comment about CSS having no meaning without HTML. But some HTML tags like p, H1, H2, etc are used pretty universally. AD already has character styles - couldn't these be converted to CSS code fairly easily?

Thanks chrisbst. I've gotten similar feedback from other people, saying the black and orange color scheme is too contrasty. I'm wondering if I like high contrast more than the average person, haha

Kodiak, I appreciate your interest! I'll message you on Skype.

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention that. This is the mobile site. I'll work on the desktop version next. It'll look similar but things will be rearranged a bit to fill the screen.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to get into web design and just finished my first site layout in AD. Looking for some feedback. What's good, what's bad Also, to Affinity developers: this software is awesome! So powerful but still easy to use (that's coming from someone with zero design experience). The individual page images are attached. The image of all of them together failed to upload, so it's linked here.

Not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this, but Intel HD 510 integrated graphics won't power AD very well. As your project grows it'll start to lag and stutter when panning and zooming. Not a huge deal, but it'll get old fast. In the attached image, the spikes in "GPU load" are from zooming and panning repeatedly. I doubt many experienced users are running onboard graphics, but maybe this will help other noobs out there.

Thanks for your help guys! That was really bugging me

Thank you sir!

New to Affinity, so pardon the basic question, but I've searched the forum and googled this but can't find an answer. What is the dotted line surrounding the artboard pictured below? It popped up when I accidentally double-clicked on the artboard in the "Layers" panel while holding the CTRL key. Now I can't make it go away. I've tried deleting the artboard and restarting the program but the dotted line persists. Please help.
