  1. That is the way that the Affinity macros work. Many have commented on this, but there is no sign of a solution from Serif. Sometimes there is a workaround using layers. I cannot see such a workaround in your case, but if you could explain in detail how you want your macro to perform, then someone might come up with a solution. John
  2. Your title is 'Vectot patterns' but you say that you want to use them as a bitmap. You might be better off looking for tileable bitmaps (as well as vector patterns) in the first place. John
  3. "Cabbage White" is a vague name mostly applied to the Large White (Pieris brassicae), but sometimes to the Small White and the Green-veined White. John
  4. Very impressive artwork. If I have a quibble, it is that your drawing is of a dead, mounted specimen rather than a live insect. When alive, the forewings are held out rather than forward so the the leading edge is approximately at right angles to the body. Mounted specimens have the forewings set forward to show the detail on them which would others be hidden by the hindwing. John
  5. Hello @jgreif and welcome to the forums. I think your last question is the one. Affinity Plugins assume thet the image size remains constant. Plugins that change image size, such as an upscaler, simply will not work. These programs usually work OK as a standalone. John
  6. If you want to change the dpi of a batch of files, then you might find my set of macros useful. John
  7. Any of the Affinity suite will open your pattern then export it as a .pdf, but: If your 'pattern' a raster or bitmap file such as .jpg or .png then then Affinity Photo can read it then export it as a .pdf. AP will also allow you to easily manipulate the image. If it is a vector file, such as .svg, then your best bet is to use Affinity Designer. Again AD allows you to easily manipulate a vector patterns. John
  8. Thanks all. "Everywhere" is the key. Funny I have never had that problem before. John
  9. I have just tried the Search box, but no matter what I enter it always comes up with '0 results'! Is it just me? There is no obvious place in these forums to ask questions about the forum program itself. A separate forum would be useful. John
  10. ... and many fairly experienced users! John
  11. That looks a much simpler procedure than mine. I had to mark two nodes with the node tool by dragging a rectangle to enclose them; then the angle shown was that at the first of the two nodes selected. John
  12. As a workaround, you could try rotating the object using the Transform panel. See what rotation you have to apply to get a vertical (or horizontal) line. Do this for the two limbs of the angle, then take the difference in the angles. John
  13. My V1 macros work OK in V2. I have a set of macros recorded in V1.6 to modify the dpi of an image because the macro engine post 1.6 will not do this correctly. They work fine in V2. What is your OS/platform? What is your version? John
  14. The scanner software I use (VueScan and SilverFast) can be configured so that the image saved from the scan opens immediately in Photo. Not as good as being able to scan directly from Photo, but a convenient workaround. From about 20 to 15 years ago, I spent a lot of time scanning my collection of 35mm slides and the ability to scan directly from my Photo Editor would have been invaluable. John
