Hi - I just turned on the two-factor authentication for the forums but didn't get any backup codes. Is this normal? Any site I've used before (including the main Affinity account site) has always provided them. Did I click too quickly and miss them, or is this not an option? I'm going to reconfigure 2FA to see but was curious. Thank you.

Thanks to both of you for your help. This licensing system confused me a bit for some reason, but it's really no different than if you sign up for Netflix on their website and then download the iPhone app and login with the credentials you used when you bought it. I just didn't want to buy it on the Affinity site and then not be able to download it via the App Store. I just prefer to download apps from the store if I can now rather than through webpages. Thanks again!

But under the "Mac App Store - registration" section it says: "If you already have an Affinity ID, i.e. an Affinity account, you can activate the app and any other apps by logging in using the Registration screen." So when reading that whole section, it looks like you can download the app from the Mac store and then activate it with your Affinity ID. Editing to add that in the first screenshot on that page, the first option shown after it's been downloaded and opened from the App Store is to "Activate" the app if it's already been purchased. I think the difference is if you want to purchase the program from that screen and don't already own it, the purchase will be made through the App Store, but since I will already own it having bought it via the Affinity upgrade option, I can just activate my purchase.

Hi! Can someone confirm that I'm understanding the example licensing pages and forum posts correctly? I'm eligible for the upgrade pricing, and if I understand correctly, I can purchase the upgrade on the Serif site, download the apps through the Mac App Store (I prefer to download software through this way now rather than through the web) and then activate the product using the purchased license in the app itself. Thanks!

Thank @v_kyr. I will do that!

Thank you @firstdefence. I knew it had to be something super simple like that!

Hi - I'm in the process of switching from Windows to Mac and shoot on an EOS R, which I don't think is yet supported in the stable release. Mac's have raw conversion built in, and I know Affinity can use that feature. How is the conversion with the OS converters compared to the ones that are released with Affinity? Thanks!

Hi - I've been tinkering with Publisher and want to leave the current program I use, but am stuck on what's probably a simple solution. I'm trying to fill a rectangle and want the fill to transition horizontally like in the attachment, but I can only get it to vertically, blue on left, red in middle, yellow on right. I'm sure there's something very simple I'm missing, but I can't figure it out. In the program I currently use, there's an "angle" adjust to rotate the fill to any orientation I want. Thanks!

Support for Canon's .CR3 file format
Skippermark replied to WillemFritz's topic in Feedback for Affinity Photo V1 on Desktop
How does the Apple Raw engine compare to the built in Raw converters in Affinity? I'm currently using Windows but thinking of switching to Mac, which I know doesn't natively support CR3, so I'd have to use the Apple engine for now. -
Thanks @Alfred. For some reason I was thinking it was 30 days. But it's all good. I contacted them today for the refund. Thanks for the help!

Hi - Can the Windows product keys be used with the Mac version? I've been a Mac user for years and was in the process of switching to Windows and purchased Affinity Photo, Designer & Publisher pre-order for Windows 2 days ago - Thursday - through the Affinity Store but decided yesterday that I want to stay with Mac. I haven't installed or activated the products and wonder if my Windows product keys will work with Mac, or do I have to request a refund and then repurchase since it's within the 30 day refund period. I'm good doing it either way. My guess is it's easier to repurchase so I have the correct info in my order history and can look that up & re-download in the future. Thanks!

multi HEIF

Hi! Will this be for Mac too? I'm super excited if so. Thanks! -
multi HEIF
Skippermark replied to Oval's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
So just to confirm, Affinity does not support HEIF yet? I'm planning to ditch the cloud-based subscription soon and looking for alternates but having HEIF support would be ideal. -

Should I buy through Microsoft Store or Affinity direct

Thank you again. It sounds like it's easier/better to just buy it direct from Affinity. Have a great holiday. You look to be right in the spirit of things with your avatar.

Thank you, Elfred. What about the Macro pack that comes from the Affinity Store? Do you know if that's available from the MS store?
