@Hangman that solved the problem. Thanks! But i don't know/remember if i've locked the guides when i've created the embedded document, but anyway i think this can be closed or deleted.

@Hangman Thanks, please try dragging in the embedded from the left only, and from the top only (the blue ruler line should be in the document) Maybe i should call it guide.

Hi. I have a document placed in another document, if i drag the ruler in the main one they work as expected, but if i double click the embedded document to edit it and try to drag the rules it won't work. This happens in the retail which is the same version as the beta. Edit: Seems to be file specific.CartaoVisita.aftemplate

Hi @Jon P didn't have more after this. I think you can close this.

@Chris B normally i use the X-1a:2003 untouched 80% of the times, so i'm almost sure i've used it.

Hi @Chris B done it! The file that doesn't have a version in the name is the original from the client. Please let me know if you need any more info. Thank you

Hi. I've a file that a client send to me in pdf, i have the need to place it in a publisher file and then export it to print (i have had this before and at that time i didn't put the attention this deserves) but the printed file is blurried, especially in text, but the text that my client send have the text as a font (when i open the file with publisher, if i have the same font i have no problem). I have done the exact same steps and exported a file in 2.5.7 and i end up with a much better crisp file regarding this... and you can already see it in reader (the difference) I end up opening the file in publisher and paste in the document instead of place it in the document... I can send the files but only with a private link.

Hi, I've just updated the app and then closed it after update without doing any work and i've had a crash, i've collected the crash log and maybe someone can take a look at it to see if there's anything important. Thank you. Affinity Photo 2 Beta-2025-01-27-115554.ips

@Hangman i've had another one this morning but i can't "repeat" it again which is weird. I've done a file in publisher with 3 pages, changed the size from the 3rd spread and then i've tried to export the file, chose the X-1a:2023 and then typed the file name, but then i remembered that i've left All pages selected and clicked cancel, then chose current page, and didn't click the export, just cancel to make sure i've selected the page 1, and then i've tried to export and beach ball. Force Quit, this time i've had to rebuild the file again and exported correctly. I've redone all the steps to see if i can have a recipe, but it's working, so this is something weird.

Hi @Hangman, i could, but it's not related to them, since after force close and app reopen and restore everything is fine. I honestly think it's after some hours of the app open. But i'm still trying to figure it out.

Hi, since the RC1 Build i'm having some beach ball hangs on Export, especially with X-1a:2023 which was not working in the previous build. Yesterday i've placed a pdf side by side (same document) in a document and the only thing i was doing is changing the page numbers in the and the exporting the file. I've done without issues 4 times, in the fifth i have a beach ball and after that no file exported and no error, if i try to save the document i have a beach ball too. I need to force quit, then on reopen i need to restore (which luckily it's working fine) and if i export it's working ok, so it's really weird. Today i was building files for print with only one image repeated some times, and i have the same behaviour, beach ball, can't export, can't save, force quit and after reopen, restore and export without any problem, so i think something is going on here. I will try to force this happen and try to screen record this. Edit: I've just recreated the same steps with the 2 files, but because i've just reopened the app it's working ok on both... i think this is just happening after some time of the app opened. I will try to not close it and will try later today.

Hi @Hangman yes, i've edited the main post right after posting telling that in the downloads folder the behaviour was the same. Yes, unfortunately is the best preset to work with my Mimaki machine, but i will see what happen when using the X-3, i know that X-4 is not the best for it. @Patrick Connor We hope a fix soon!

After today update i can't export pdf to my onedrive folder as you can see in the video. Didn't test in the other 2 apps, but it's not looking good. It's working ok in 2.5.7, i can export without any kind of trouble. Edit: Can't export even to local downloads folder. Seems a problem with the preset, i can export with X-3:2003 and X-4 and i've tested too with PDF for Print, but as soon as i use the X-1a:2003 can't export Edit2: It's not working with Publisher too. You can't even export a blank document with that preset. CleanShot 2025-01-10 at 12.07.03.mp4

Not yet, i've not had a full day of work in the apps in the last days, so that doesn't happened again yet, but as soon as i have it i will mention you again. Thanks

Could be related, but i don't have and don't like to use floating documents, so for me that's not the problem. Mine usually appears later in the day when having the app opened and working on it almost all day.

Hi i've experiencied this twice, yesterday with 2900 build and today with 2950. When trying to export a pdf (don't know if it is the same with other file type) file after typing the name and choosing the location after clicking save the windows still remains there instead of the export bar, and the only way to make it disappear is by going to file export again, do the same process and when i get the message that the file already exist i can click cancel and the window dissapear. Is weird... Closing the app and opening again produces the same result, but after computer restart i think i have the "normal" behaviour. I will keep an eye on it, and as soon as this happen again i will record a video.

I think honestly that for the thumbnails it's ok, for the quicklook preview, and since you guys are rewriting this it could be much better. I just think that for graphic design apps the quicklook preview is not acceptable sorry, a blurried image couldn't be what we get. Every other app i have in my machine produces a crisp clean quicklook preview, some of them produces almost a full screen high quality preview, and what we have from design apps is a blurried preview, sorry but you guys need to do it better. @Patrick Connor

@deepblue File -> Import -> Google Fonts

@deepblue I can give you my opinion because i've used Rightfont for 3 years (since version5) and now i'm using Typeface app for almost a year. Both are great, in my work one thing i've used a lot in rightfont, besides the font management was the svg icons, that Typeface doesn't have but i've a Raycast extension that let me do this, so no problem. I think another advantage of Typeface is the sync with google fonts, i have the library almost always up to date without any effort. Another one is the price. Typeface app is more affordable, let you use the app in all the macs you have, and if you want to renew the license to continue receiving pro updates it has a good price for that. Rightfont is now with 30% discount but you need a license for every Mac you own. So if you ask me, go for Typefaceapp you won't regret. (I'm not sponsored by typeface app but i'm available @Floor 🤣)

Hi @aji i use typeface app and @Floor is the owner/developer i think and works great with affinity apps, even with auto-activation (it's working well with 2.6 beta apps). If you have the font in your library but it's not activated it will automatically auto-activate it for you when you open your document and will deactivate it when you close the app that triggered this auto-activation. I'm using it almost a year and i really like it to manage my font library (i've had problems before for having a lot of active fonts) You might want to take a look. Edit: Sorry, my fault just after writing i've seen you have Windows and Typeface app is just for Mac, i will keep the post because it could help others. For you (Windows) i reccomend Fontbase.

No fix for this in the latest beta @Patrick Connor? This bug is driving me crazy. I have to make my selection in a different way which takes too much time and most of the times i'm moving what i don't want to!

It's a client file. No problem if you provide a dropbox link.

Multi Page PDF is displaying incorrectly when placed in Designer again in 2831. It was marked as fixed in 2805 and i think in that build they are working correctly. The pdf was exported from Canva. The page box selector doesn't work correctly. It's working ok in Publisher.

Hi, i'm facing a different behaviour when selecting objects between 2.5.5 and 2.6.0. As you can see, when i click in a blank part it should deselect, as expected in 2.5.5, but in 2.6.0 if i click in a blank space it's selecting a layer, not what i expect, so i don't know if this is a bug or a new way of selection. Please let me know. Selection bug.mp4

Just to add, it seems weird, sometimes it does, sometimes it won't, i will try to see in what specific cases this does happen.
