Thanks Anto, I'll take a look at both options and get back to you with my results - I hope this'll work.

I'm guessing this cannot be done (apart from manually.......). I have the exact same issue - I want to create a document with around 300 photos. I want to be able to import them all in one click (say into a Master Page) and then add some text to each photo. To suggest that you do this manually, one by one, isn't what I want to read Pleeeeease, make this a possibility

Yay ! Thank you sooooo much That's made my day

I'm working on a simple banner for printing, and I'd like to see my artwork without those thin magenta lines on each object. And it seems I cannot predict when/where they'll appear as they aren't appearing for anything that's selected. Nor are they appearing for every object. How can I hide/switch those off please ? (in my example attached, you can see that all objects have these lines, but none are selected. And as mentioned before I have had instances where not all objects do have this thin line). Many thanks.

Yay That fixed it Thanks Sean

I'm creating an extremely simple banner for a client. They've provided me with their banner in low-res jpg form and I'm simply superimposing new text which I've created using the Artistic Text tool. Their company name, a few services (about 12 words), a domain name, and a telephone number. It can't get simpler than that ! If I try to copy anything, Control C, Edit->Copy, Right-Click and choose Copy, Designer crashes out....... Not a good start to my first ever commercial use of Designer !

For example, now it's working fine and I've not had to wait 1/2 hour.....

Hi Stokerg, I've noticed that this goes away after allowing a certain amount of time to elapse before replying. At least that is my research. I did make your company aware of this issue earlier this year, and from that email dialogue we didn't solve it and I'd spent a lot of time trying to help. I have stopped my Ad-Blockers on your site - I don't think the problem has gone away but I don't think it's as bad. I think if I give it 1/2 hour, the problem disappears.

This has been ongoing now for sometime and as I don't visit here often, now that I'm back today and have posted a new topic, I cannot reply to it, nor can I even try to quote someone before replying. I have tried this across the three browsers I have installed, Edge, Chrome and Firefox and they ALL have this issue. I've tried on my other machine, a laptop and this issue still persists. If I click inside the reply box, the box opens and then it closes again. If I click on Quote (to quote someone as a reply) the same thing happens, the reply box opens and then immediately closes with no chance of me adding my reply or even being allowed to type anything in the reply box at all first. So, when I'll get a reply to this message, my problem will be I've got no way of adding to the thread ???? I am on Windows 10. PS - It seems (with very small testing) that I cannot reply to my own topics.

I am a massive fan of Affinity, both in terms of their software (I have all three products) as well as their company ethos, pricing, ethics etc etc. But until we have Smart Layers in at least Affinity Photo (like there is in Photoshop), I cannot use it in the commercial environment. Sure, I can get fantastic results quickly and easily, and it's fun, but if I CANNOT have a non-destructive workflow, it is useless to me. I recently got caught out by this due a client requesting I revisit a project I'd completed and needed revising. I had no way of knowing what the previous settings for my effects were. This is a NUMBER ONE MUST HAVE in your software. Please, please, please do this ! Thank you

Thank you Affinity - I've just placed my pre-order. Couldn't be happier with Affinity products and your approach to pricing and how to design software Big kudos to you guys !

I open up my latest version of Publisher on Windows, the dialog box comes up saying that there is a newer version of the Beta to download and it proceeds to download the same version as the one already downloaded and installed, i.e. 1.7.0.312.

Thanks Joachim, that was it.

Yes, this is the issue as I’d mentioned at the start in my 3rd post in this thread (6th post down). When you FLATTEN a pdf, necessary in order to reduce its size for the purposes of portability, you pay the price for that by getting these lines appearing - seems Gabriela didn’t test for this.

Just to let you know that I tried with Carl’s affinity file and I get the problem still. please see attached (I’ve also attached a gif to show the behaviour of this website on my windows 10 pc when I try replying via my computer). Test.pdf

Okay, now I can send this message via my PC - but I tried for at least 10 minutes beforehand and each time I tried, the reply box opened and closed without allowing me to type anything in here first. (and this has happened to me now several times).

Sorry to say that I am still having exactly the same problem as I mentioned originally, so for me it is not fixed at all (shame as I was happy to learn from Gabriela that it was fixed). For information, I am on the latest Beta 1.7.0.283. Export preset PDF Flatten is what I need and chose and the output looks exactly like my first image posted above. I've just noticed that I didn’t mention that my original post that in my case I’m importing pngs with transparency (though I did mention it happens with Jpgs too). by the way, I cannot seem to reply to posts on my windows 10 pc, each time I try, the reply box opens and closes rapidly and I’ve tried this in Chrome and Firefox (this reply was sent via my iPad).

I stayed with PS CS6, and recently I've wanted to have custom patterned (tiled) watermarks over my imagery (there is standalone watermark software out there but none of them can create a separate watermark only layer, they can only output a finished, flattened layer (with image and watermarks combined). On the journey to find a solution within PS, I looked into creating an Action, and during that journey I discovered that from the first edition of the subscribed version of PS (PS CC), a new Brick Fill Pattern became available that gave a dialog box which would allow you to do exactly what I was looking for (see my tiling.jpg example). So, my question; Is there ANY way this kind of action, script, macro can be produced in Affinity Photo ? A tileable watermark would be an incredible addition to this already fantastic piece of software

Sorry, no can do.

Sounded promising, and I tested your suggestion, but no, it's not that - it's something to do with when rasterising "Everything" (in the PDF Options pre-exporting). If I choose "Everything" (rather than leaving it as "Nothing"), that is when and where the issue presents itself.

It doesn't have a line around it. None of them do.

Seems like a bug to me (I'm using the latest, current Beta version of Publisher); I get thin black line in a PDF where an image (either a jpg or png) has been placed within a Publisher document - please see attached to see how it looks when exported as a PDF.

Yes, I tried Save As.

Dang...... it's still broke...... Just completed my document and NOW it won't save

Chris, Whilst we wait for this fix to be available in a new build, is it possible to get around the 'expired' message we now receive on the previous beta version please ? I have 1.7.0.145 installed but it's out of Beta. Many thanks. ****** Scrub that..... I just tried saving my Publisher document and it worked in 1.7.0.162 ??? - wasn't working last week ??!!! ********
