    The ability to do the live warp in real time from different angles is incredible! The instruction videos show a little of what can be done, but messing around with it last night, you can use it right in the file you are working on. So many opportunities here. Has other programs had this and I have missed it? Battle for Sanity.mp4

    I'm Running MacOS Ventura 13.4 and Affinity Designer 2.1.0

    I'm seeing the same thing as Mike. When first opened it does not show the bleed but turning off and on Show bleeds, then does show the bleeds correctly. It also exports fine using our custom press settings. There is a view bug but I think it is exporting right. I'm using the Ventura .4 and Affinity 2.1 - not beta Perhaps there is something in the beta not working.

    Ok. Thanks for that. I just upgraded to Ventura. That makes sense now that the upgrade is what caused the problem. I had them before. What a shame. I have the duplicate installed and other programs see it just not Affinity. The one thing I would say that contradicts the other thread is that existing documents can't use it either, and maybe that changed in a recent update of the OS.

    I just installed the font Athelas using Font Book and the Affinity apps cannot see it. Indesign and LibreOffice can use it just fine, but not Publisher or Designer in either V1 or V2. Is there something I should try? I'm on Ventura 13.4

    that does do better, but I really can't handle dark mode very long. I don't mind for photos but design is just too dark and gives a feeling of tunnel vision.

    it seems to be only the layers pallet that this effects. It wouldn't be too bad on a regular screen, but when you have many layers on a 4k screen, it's not always easy.

    I'm not sure if I'm missing a setting, but in the layers studio panel I have a hard time seeing because it is "grey text on a grey background". I've turned on the high contrast setting in interface and it seems to effect every panel except for layers. Didn't have this problem in V1. What am I missing? BTW - V2.1 is fantastic and I appreciate all Serif's work and those who help out on these forums!

    sure can. what is the best way to send it to you?

    Here is what my V2 Designer file is supposed to look like: Here is what it exports like: The only way to get it to work is to have the PDF rasterize everything - including text.

    I'm really struggling to find where some of these are at. Before I could use the "help" menu and type in what I was looking for. That seems to be gone in V2. The help center won't show me were "Edit Frame Content" button is to remove the shortcut. I have been using Indesign for so long that I would like to keep those shortcuts the same - or change them at my pace. Shift+command+C should be center in that world. Is there an online keyboard shortcut file that would make it similar or could it be included for those who are transitioning?
  12. Bryce
    Suggestion: When there is a keyboard shortcut conflict - clicking on the icon will take you to the conflicted setting instead of doing nothing when clicking on it. - Or have an option to override the existing shortcut.

    I don't think this is the right forum for version 1

    I'm having several issues with PDF export. When I export (PDF-X4 or 1.8) with a white glow around masked images they glow turns "hard". See here: If I export rasterized so I get the glow I get cut off warped text (PDF-X or 1.8). See here: what it should be: If I tell the text to convert to curves then it exports to raster just fine. Thanks for working hard on these issues!
  15. Bryce
    Correct. I'm only working on the master pages. I can easily make it change as long as a I cut and paste again. Then it's right on all the pages.
  16. Bryce
    You are probably right, but I'm not sure by what you mean "Automatically applied". Is there a way to manually make it apply from a master to a slave? What i did was created the master banner page then made the text I wanted. I then went to Design persona and made a warp mesh on the master page. If I copy and paste it back on then it will show.
  17. Bryce
    Master pages that are updated in the Designer Persona don't translate correctly to the pages the masters are assigned to.
  18. Bryce
    Interesting to see this as I have not encountered this before. I have a master page that I adjusted the mesh warp in Designer Persona. when I went back to the publisher persona the pages attached to the master did not update. Is there something that needs checked for this to happen?

    Hi Walt, I was getting to go back and answer my own question. I see I can also click on the keys and download, which I knew, but the full version app can overwrite without need to reenter everything. thanks for pointing that out! Bryce

    mac OS - 10 computers x3 apps = 30 updates. Each one wants to update from the web. Are there updaters to download and put on a server instead of each one doing their own download?
  21. Bryce
    that would be an interesting mask if you could save that.
  22. Bryce
    Actually, it was Aldus Freehand - at least when I used it. Loved it. When AD came out it reminded me more of Freehand than IL and that's what got me started again.
  23. Bryce
    I noticed it does not work warp rasters that are grouped with the vectors. I think that should be included for such things as product placements and planes
  24. Bryce
    Sorry. I was referring to Indesign and Illustrator. I rarely use PS but I assume that because Affinity can read and write to PS files that you are correct on that. Indesign is always wanting to save the files in a new format whenever I open them.
  25. Bryce
    I agree. AD has slices that AI doesn't have and that is a game changer for making newspaper ads. agreed. in the prepress side, I much preferred FH over IL when files came in. FH had the multiple size pages (artboards) long before anything else did and it was intuitive. You would have entire business packages in one file - Letterhead, business cards, envelopes. AD is much closer and that is what attracted to me it 5 years ago to start trying Affinity.
