[Publisher 2.1.1 and 2.2 beta. Problem with text (MacOS and Windows)]

Hi Anto, I confirm the problem with the apostrophe on Mac with Publisher 2.4.0 (only in Publisher), but you can solve the Cyrillic problem passing the text in BBedit, then copy it from there and everything works correctly. BBEdit is also free - https://www.barebones.com

I confirm the problem not solved in 2.2 for Mac

Hi

I have the same problem that manifests itself with live filters

[Add replace "All fonts" button]

Hi GarryP
I happened me a particular thing for which it can be useful to add this button.
I moved on to Publisher v2 and opening a document created with version 1 it reported me that the font "times" was missing, in reality the font is present in the system, but for some mysterious reason Publisher does not see it. So I opened the "fonts management" window (attached screen) and replaced it manually whit "times new roman". In this window a button would have been useful that replaces all the missing fonts with a single operation. In this case I could not use the "find and replace" panel because the program does not see the missing font.

 

[Add replace "All fonts" button]

Add a replace "All family select fonts" button in the "Fonts Management" window.

[Select concatenated text on two or more pages]

Disabling completely Metal and replacing it with OpenGL... things do not change, indeed the complete selection appears only after moving the cursor page up or down.

[Select concatenated text on two or more pages]

I follow the same procedure (Walt.farrell) select the text from start to finish, passing through two or more pages, sometimes everything works, other times the last piece of text is not selected or is selected with a lax of delay. Now I will try to disable the Metal calculation.

[Select concatenated text on two or more pages]

Selecting concatenated text on two or more pages is difficult, sometimes works other no.

It doesn't matter how big the document is, even a document of a few pages presents this problem.

[Display artifacts]

I realized that various visualization problems: blurred interface text, name of the panels that do not appear immediately, graphic work display artifacts (I attach a screen) etc. all depend on the saturation of video memory, this happens for all Affinity programs, not just on Affinity Design.
The solution is to change the resolution of the monitor, this immediately cleans the video, I use a program, for Mac, which is called: Easyres.
Waiting for the resolution of the problem I hope this advice is useful to everyone.

[Correct display of attributes]

I am thinking if it can be considered a bug or in any case a design error...

[Correct display of attributes]

And even selecting text that has multiple colors, the display in the "color palette" will change according to the order of selection, this WILL NOT MAKE YOU NOTICE OF A POSSIBLE ERROR IN THE CASE OF VERY SIMILAR COLORS, this should be signaled with an alert symbol.

[Correct display of attributes]

Certainly GarryP, this happens for all properties and not just the text. If you select three rectangles: one without a border, one with a thin border and the last with a thick border, you will see, that depending on the selection order, the display of this property in the "color palette" will change and will not be correct.

[Correct display of attributes]

Currently, when I select more text, and this text is not all formatted equally (for example some characters is narrower etc.) The text attribute palette shows me that all the text selected has the same properties, this is wrong.
This problem happens both with the selection of the text and with the selection of text boxes, both with the selection of other types of objects and forms, for text attributes and for color and trace attributes.
For a correct display of multiple text properties, you should see a red bar or a alarm symbol (see image attached).
This is very important for all affinity programs and in particular for Publishers.

[New control parameter in preflight checking]

I think it would be useful to have a new parameter in preflight checking: if the text is 100% black or if it is cmyk.

[Look and unlock layer]

Simply add the commands to lock and unlock the levels with the contextual menu (right mouse button), in the canvans, for all desktop applications

[Publisher 1.10.1 change the color of the text]

Gabe excuses my delay, but unfortunately I just had to change the file for work and I no longer have the wrong version.
However until now the problem has no longer manifested.

I can't reproduce the bug anymore, now everything seems to work well...

[Find and replace error]

This replacement fails.

1 ) I type the text to search: 100 g (image_1)

2) I select my previous choice: 100 NBSP ml from the drop-down menu, but when I release the mouse, the text before the special character disappears (image_2)

Hi Gabe,

generally remains blurry, but since I upgraded to 11.4 and rebooted the machine the problem seems to have disappeared.

[The name of the tool palettes is fuzzy]

Sometimes, the name of the tabbed palettes is fuzzy.
The problem in previous versions to 1.9 was solved, now it is back, in most cases it seems to appear when the RAM memory is almost exhausted.
