Did i read this just in the new Photo update ? I Think theres a fix, that 32 bit images now will be imported with linear ? so one of our steps in your tutorial Video wouldnt be needed any more, which improves workflow furter more..

greaaat... thats the information, Users need to see the quality of Affinity... thanks for this..

1. easy to do and allready halfway implemented: shortcut to deselect pixelmasks from the Layerstack... affinity allready put in the short cut to cmd+shift+lmb click on a Layericon to select ! Additive ! like in Photoshop layer masks. So you dont have to add them one by one in the spare channels... but to deselect from a selecttion the shortcut is still missing.. 2. embedd linked pdf files, but give the option to link the rasterised version also whithout loosing the link to the original pdf file... this would ease the workflow for thousends of Architects.. they never need the option to tweek single lines in theire floreplan CAd to pdf prints, they import to photo... its just done by far easier inside the cad applicatieon... but still an imported pdf from a cad file should be linked not only embeded, also when it is rasterised. 3. still speedimprovements for large documents needed... here photoshop still excels over affinity photo.. dont know wasnt it told, affinity is still working on gpu speed booosts ?

Hi Joachim.. Well thanks.. Originaly, i was asking for the textstyles.. I got a Document with about 70 pages, and about 20 Textstyles... But i am not sure if all of them are used.. so i just wanted to clean it up, and go on with only the used Textstyles that where left.. I originaly created the Document , from saving it out from another Document, where i had to use many more styles.. so to get all neded styles, this is a good way.. but now it seams you have to pay very good attention to not delete the wrong style.. so an automatic search for unused styles would be very good

Joachim_L, I think i had taken the wrong name.. i asked for styles, not for textstyles.. Styles are something else... see the screenshot...

Well MEB, if its not possible, we should move this to the wishlist section

Ah.. Well maybe i get here something wrong.. what i mean are these styles.. The "Text Styles" they differ from document document..

Hi, is there an easy way to get rid of styles in a final document, that i dont want anymore ? my problem is, in a looong document, i am not sure, which styles are not used anymore. So is there any easy way to flush all of the unused one away , fast and easey ?

One Question about this.. When you import Text from other documents , using a Style with the same name, and exact same settings, as an allready existing Style, Does Publisher nowtice this , and doesnt double the style ? ore does it get confusing now.. Or, does warn for douplicated style names and so on.... How intelligent is this funktion ? Any experiances allready ?

Yes.. You can force Publisher to prefere Linked... But "linking" seems to be wired in Publisher... The files still are stored inside of the document which leads to enormous size of the document if you save it , even when prefere linked is enabled and all images ... are "linked", because they are not realy linked.. Linked untill now only means.. that the still embeded files have to save a "link" to the original files, to notice, if they change.. in that case you can exchange them to the new files.. But still the data get stored to the document, which leads to big filesizes... What do you think... I think here the indesign concept is far better..

Well as you said, you dont know the idml format ? This a is format that Indesign can export also to alow transfer of documents in differing indesign programms.. I used this some time to get documents from a more advanced indesign version to an older one, and it worked nearly perfect. So to say.. IDML would be enough as an import format. BUT !!!! We also need the possibility to export Publisher Formats to IDML.. this is very much needed, because very often we have to cooperate with the outer world.. and the outer World is dominated by evil So please also make export of idml possible.. I Think most of us wouldnt have considered to look at Affinity photo too, if it hadnt been able to import and also export psd files..

I would like to see this too.. obvious a very smal but helpful feature

Hi everyone.. For international architectural competitions, architectural Companys have to submit an application in which they also prove the qualifications of their employees. For this purpose, we have a document for each employee with his or her curriculum vitae and qualifications, which are supplied with the application. These documents are all structured in the same way. Would it be possible to have these documents filled in automatically via the connection to tables or databases, so that the colleagues in business development do not have to create a new publisher document every time ? Of course we would have to migrate from Indesign to Publisher. Without an import function, at least of the IDML format, the conversion to Affinity Publisher would require an extremely high effort which is difficult to justify. 1. are connections for the import of databases that can automatically fill a document with content being considered? and 2. when is there hope for the import of IDML files ?

Hi Pille... (so Bones get Called in Germany... ) thanks... Where could i put possibly suggestions if i wished so... for blender ?

Yes. I allready installed 2.8 after seeing the incReadible Preview of the 2.8 Viewport.. Eevee is realy a great tool as a viewport realtime rendersystem and also for many toon like renderings, that doesnt need photoreralistic Vray irradiance cache light transport scattering wavelength baseed.... you name it.. algorithms.. The new interface also looks good. But still the shortcuts feel like a bomb exploded in them. The Modifier Stack isnt as advanced as max modifier stack, but does the job.. But we´ll see what "everything nodes" will deliver to us.. esp. becaus modifier nodes maybe will implement modelling options, max could only dream of.. hope so.. Arr... have to stop here.. its not a Blenderr forum... But cryptomatte would be nice... in Affinity.
