  1. 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 ?

  2. i get a easier information about guides...

    Right now i only can get precise informations about the position of guides when i use the guides manager..

    But why not also using the Transform Palette ?  when i hover over a guide, it could give me the position of a guide. Just as it does in indesign, when i cklick an guide..

    Only thing i am not sure about  is how i would do this, when a guide comes from a masterpage, and so is dotted.. in this case, it couldnt be selected in the page..

    Never the less, get better information about guides would be appreciated..

  3. 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

     

  4. 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..

    That is good to know, not sure what the IDML file is as all  my files are INDD, I will buy the program when the INDD function is available.

    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.. 

  6. Hi Uwe.. 

    thanks, i found this too, and in this moment i am looking at it...  ;-)    Well the way to aktivate the pannel for Hyperlinks,   is to just press strg in german or  cmd in english and meanwhile, doubleclicking affinity Photo to start it...  in that case another windows pops up before the programm starts and asks you to reset everything..   after doing so, also the studio option for the hyperlink pannel works..
