Thank you. That's what I thought maybe the case.

Hi, I have multiple artboards and have found I need to adjust the guides. Can I change all of them at once on every artboard. I have tried selecting 2 artboards then adjusting the guides but it only applied the guides to one of the artboards Thanks

Hi, I have just updated to Publisher version 2.2 on my Windows 11 pc and have opened it for the first time. None of the studio panels will open. The text in the list of studio panels is in greyed except for those with the next arrow and when I click on them, the options are in greyed too. This occurs whether the the panel has a tick to show its supposedly opened or not. These panels will not appear. I have checked they haven't opened on the other screen or behind any other windows. It is a bit hard to use when pages, layers, colours, navigation, etc aren't open. I have checked some of the tools and I can insert text and shapes and colour them, so I can use them through the tools. While writing this I was checking on how I was able to open the character panel before temporarily, and found the solution. As it wasn't something I expected I have continued writing this in case someone else has a similar experience. The solution was to click on the a symbol for the character style on the context toolbar. As soon as I did all the ticked panels appeared and the list of panel names wasn't greyed out anymore. I have included a screenshot. I hope this helps someone else.

Hi Walt, I worked it out today. I had previously grouped some of the shapes. I thought I had ungrouped them all but missed some. Once all were ungrouped, the Booleans appeared and I could use the add Boolean. Thanks for your reply. At the time I hadn't realised the issue.

Hi, I am creating a landscape in an artboard in Designer-Windows. I have selected multiple shapes and can't use the Add boolean to make them into one shape as the booleans are greyed out. However, I can create a new artboard, add two shapes and it works fine. Any ideas please? Thanks

Hi Walt and NPM, I found it. I totally missed the list at the top. Thank you.

Hi Walt Thanks for the reply. When I click on that drop down list it only has the two png options.

Hi How do I export to pdf a file in Affinity Designer 2 that is composed of two scanned images (.png) and a text frame. When I open export I only have png options. I can't see pdf. I have Windows 11. Thanks

Hi, I have replaced a laptop and after installing the font used in many of my affinity created documents, the font is replaced with another, even though I reinstalled the font I want. How do I correct this without opening my many documents and replacing the font correctly in each. It can even display the font name correctly but the text is still in another font. When I select the font and replace it with the correct font, the displayed font name will now be shown in the text correctly. Any ideas. Thanks

Hi RC-R To clarify, I made an earlier comment that I had the 'retrieve margins from printer button" on my Windows 10 AD desktop version 1.10.4.1198. My reply was to Walt's comment that there is no new page option, as he thought I was mistaken. I referred to new page options instead of new document. I was trying to say that it would be more useful to have the button re 'retrieve margins from printer' when creating a new document rather than then, needing to edit the new document to get the correct margin for my printer. Sorry for any misunderstanding. It thus, appears that it must be a Mac issue.

New Document where you select the size of the document.

Is this referring to AD on Macs or all? I am using AD 1.10.4.1198 on Windows 10 and have the retrieve margins from printer button but unfortunately it is not in new page options. At this point I have to know what my printer margins are and type them in, else I have to say create. Next, I need to go to document setup > margin tab and there I find the button at the bottom.

hi R C-R, Thanks for the reply. I agree that the original sitting cat is the best. I went to the other post and found it interesting. The alt key didn't work for me but another mentioned shift key in windows which worked well. I was also able to import the three versions of cat into my assests. Thanks a lot.

Designer- the cat shape has changed from sitting to walking and no longer appears in the shape options tool. Why is it not included - only available under customise? Thanks

Thanks FirstDefence, I have windows 10. I did the cascade windows and it worked straight away.
