How to use the new pixel grid & move/duplicate tool?
walt.farrell replied to Joe S.'s topic in Affinity on iPad Questions
If you want to be using a 10px grid, you would use a Standard Grid, not the Pixel Grid, and set it to 10px. You would then use Snapping options of Snap to Grid. And probably many/most other Snapping options off. But I don't produce your kind of art, so I can't say much more than that; sorry. -
How to use the new pixel grid & move/duplicate tool?
walt.farrell replied to Joe S.'s topic in Affinity on iPad Questions
Move Data Entry is a desktop function only. The new Pixel Grid is a 1x1 px grid. It will only show when you're zoomed-in enough that individual pixels could be visible, and is enabled separately in the Grid settings here: -
Affinity Photo 2 | Copy "Selected" From "Image layer"
walt.farrell replied to Ruslan TV's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
It's only available in the Edit menu, but that's basically the same thing, and arguably faster as it doesn't take a long-press + a tap, just two taps. -
As a partial workaround, you can save a Print Profile from the Print dialog, and if I remember correctly that will encompass both the Affinity dialog settings and the Windows printer driver settings. Then you could use that Profile when printing later. If it's not remembered with the .afpub document when you Save after you Print, then at least with good naming conventions you could easily find it to use later manually.

Vector Flood Fill tool missing from the toolbar
walt.farrell replied to Ampersand's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
You have configured it, because you showed it in 2 columns, which is not the default. I cannot easily say if something else is different, but that obviously is. Whether that would be sufficient to prevent the addition of a new tool automatically (or whether it should be), I cannot say. Someone from Serif who would know might comment. -
I wasn't quite sure where to report this. I'm on my iPad (now at 17.1.2), using the standard browser (Safari?), and looking at the online Help for Designer 2 (desktop) 2.3. There are new options when you click Search in the Help's sidebar, and there's a row of options that looks very strange. If it's not a bug, and is intended, please explain what they do (and maybe adjust their display on-screen ) --

Have you tried simply dragging the Designer window larger rather than using full-screen mode? That might provide a workaround.

The only solution for now is to uninstall fonts, as far as I know.

Useful tweaks for Windows 10
walt.farrell replied to Bololoco's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
In Settings, Assistant Settings, Develop Assistant, are you developing to RGB/16 or to RGB/32. If you're using RGB/32 try setting it to RGB/16. If that doesn't help enough, or if you're already on RGB/16, you can try RGB/8 but you'll probably want to use a batch job for that. Having said that, though, I would also recommend using a Batch Job to Develop them all to TIFF, and then generating the panorama from the TIFF files rather than from the RAW files. -
Affinity Publisher Data Merge Manager Bug: No Fields
walt.farrell replied to Ben Wolf's topic in V2 Bugs found on macOS
You can switch back to 2.2, but it won't be able to Open any file you Saved with 2.3. You can download prior V2 releases of Publisher for macOS from https://affinity.store/update/macos/publisher/2 Have you verified that the field names in the JSON file match the field names in the Fields panel of your .afpub file? Do you have a .afpub file and a .json file that you can share which demonstrate the problem? -
Raw Presets-Develop Persona
walt.farrell replied to evtonic3's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
Yes, that would be nice. As a workaround in the meantime, rather than saving a Preset in the Develop Persona you can record a macro, and save it in your Library, and use it on other images to apply that set of Develop adjustments to other RAW images. In some ways this may be even better than Develop Presets, as the macro can be used in Batch Processing. -
Also, I'm not sure why you've posted this as a bug. The FAQ lists the currently supported cameras and lenses. If your lens is not in that list, a request to add it is appropriate, but it should be a feature request in the Feedback forum. It wouldn't be a bug unless it is listed in that list, but doesn't work properly.

Affinity Photo 2 | Copy "Selected" From "Image layer"
walt.farrell replied to Ruslan TV's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
It is not a bug, but intentional behavior. An Image Layer is a container, and you cannot access its individual pixels using a pixel selection and Copy. However, you should be able to do so via Edit > Copy Merged in Photo 2. -
Vector Flood Fill tool missing from the toolbar

View > Configure Tools should allow you to add it. -
Unable to open file
walt.farrell replied to der_gent's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I agree; the applications should do a better job of reacting to the current set of monitors you have available.
