  1. @Hangman Thanks to your comment on Wednesday I finally noticed this message in the bottom bar when it happened today. Now all I need to do is find the option to disable this or the keystrokes which are enabling it. Can't find anything in help and a web search comes to this post
  2. Hi @Hangman I never noticed that UI before. However it doesn't explain the measurements display getting "locked in" so that you can't design and the only way to get rid of it is to change persona CMD or not.
  3. The top bar Font Family selector goes under floating (un-docked) panels in both Designer and Publisher. It makes it really difficult to see or select fonts! It would be great if it floated over the other floating panels
  4. I really hope this isn't driver / keystroke error - I don't think so. This seems to be intermittent, but when I'm working on documents in Designer and Publisher, I'll get measurements showing after scaling / duplicating etc. elements on the page / artboards. Swapping tools doesn't seep to get rid of problem, so I've resorted to switching persona. I've tried searching but don't seem to have the right vocabulary / questions to get an answer.
  5. I only updated to 16.6.2 BTW.
  6. Yes they were live documents I'd saved before. No. The only thing which had changed at the time was the Affinity Designer update.
  7. ALL the files I was working of HAD meaningful file names when they were created or opened first! Client, date, version etc. I then worked on the files, went to save them and was met with the file names being replaced by Untitled. Even when I'd saved as a new file name. It has made file management very difficult.
  8. Thanks Callum, I couldn't get a screen recording but here's a screen grab. AD seemed to just forget any file name when you went to Save or Save As. iPadOS 16.6.1 on iPad 9th Gen Updated the iPadOS to 16.6.2, which became available just after your reply and it seems to be back to normal for now.
  9. On the iPad version of Designer, since update version 2.2.0.2005 when I go to Save or Save as a document, Designer forgets the previous file name and changes it to "Untitled".
  10. If Affinity Designer can import an IDML file, so I'm pretty certain it should be possible to reverse the process and export an IDML file too. There will always be new features which aren't exactly rendered as they should be, but it would be a good halfway-house. https://affinity.help/publisher/en-US.lproj/index.html?page=pages/GetStarted/importDocument.html?title=Importing documents
  11. Update, if there are only two anchor points left in the path from your rectangle then you get the same Y axis issue
  12. Unless I'm missing a setting somewhere, objects created on a page will have the Y axis in relation to the page you are working on. The exception is unclosed paths / shapes, including straight lines, created by the Pen Tool which seem to have their Y axis in relation to the origin of the very first page in a document. This means that on p10 of my document the horizontal lines are showing an Y axis of 3044.8mm instead of 101.8mm! Oddly if you convert a rectangle to paths and then remove two of the nodes to create a straight line you get the correct positioning.
  13. Interesting, I hadn't tried your method before and it was looking good until I exported. When I exported a PDF made of 6 artboards with bleed and crop marks I ended up with 6 single pages rather than 2 pages with a combined bleed and crop marks. Is there a step I'm missing, or do you then move everything onto a single artboard as part of your pre-press flow? My Publisher solution was to create a master template with guides and create groups for the pages which need to shuffle. Having a gutter would also be super helpful for fold marks and notes to the printer etc.
  14. +1 I too was really hoping that this had been sorted out.
