[Minor Bug: Export Panel resets "Size" when changing "Area"]

Hi @eli_playing

This is not a bug but "by design".

You must first switch to Current page and then determine the page size.

[Bildrahmen eines freigestellten Bildes/Grafik mit Farbe hinterlegen]

 

Works for me too. Or not.

I am a little confused. But yes, the background fill for the picture frame does not work, only the recolouring of the outline.

Maybe it is not intended to recolour or colour the background of a picture frame.
 

[Photo V2: AMD Radeon hardware acceleration active?]

Hi @Dr. Joachim Neudert

In principle, hardware acceleration works with Radeon 5xxx/6xxx cards in V2. However, it cannot be ruled out that hardware acceleration does not work with some combinations of CPU and graphics cards.

Probiert einmal, den Windows Store Cache zurückzusetzen. Dafür gebt ihr in der Windows Suche wsreset ein. Der erste Eintrag solle wsreset.exe sein. Diese bitte einmal ausführen.

Right, it's not possible. You need Publisher for this job.

Hi @Sarolta

There is no page number counter for Designer. This is only possible in Publisher.

[Pantone color doesn't work]

Hi @kefas

Adobe uses with the EPS format as with all other Adobe file formats a proprietary area in which among other things also the colour profile is stored. Third-party suppliers such as Serif cannot read this area. If you have access to Illustrator, try saving the file in svg format.

Can you tell witch pantone profile you used in Illustrator?

Hallo @zreptil

Ist Windows aktuell?

Hast Du schon einmal sfc für eine System Datei Fehlersuche ausgeführt. Klick mit der rechten Maustaste auf Start. Wähle Eingabeaufforderung oder Windows Powershell, jeweils als Administrator. Gebe sfc /scannow ein und warte die Abarbeitung ab.

Alternativ kannst Du auch dieses Tool nutzen:

Hi @Helene_Randolph

Please try with deselcted Hardware acceleration. Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Performance and untick Hardware acceleration.

[Support for Blender]

Hi @Jack Underscore

Why don't you ask in the Blender forum if they have support for the Affinity format?
Why does a software always have to support the format of a competitor? Do you think Adobe will bother to support the Affinity format?

[Knife tool doesn't work with fonts]

@ℓurié

Well, you are right. If I'm observing correctly, it seems to me that when you cut over or just short of nodes with the knife tool, the cut is skipped.

Try to reduce the size of the blemish brush so that it only covers the area you want to cover.

[Extremely disappointed that this installs as an "App" and not regular software program]

For those who need to move the apps

On Windows 11 you can move the apps to a fixed drive is quite easy.

To do so click on Start -> Settings -> Apps -> Installed Apps. Left click on the '...'. Now you can move it to another drive.
