It is often the case on the desktop (and possibly on iPad) that changes made to the Affinity applications (Preferences, or addition of Assets, Brushes, etc.) are not saved unless the application is closed successfully after the change is made. So, if you add some brushes, and then the application crashes before you have closed it successfully, I would not be surprised if the brushes disappear.

Thinking further, and with your examples, @Lagarto, I think it would be better to have a separate topic in the beta forum, rather than discussion mixed into the announcement topics.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Which Affinity application (and release) are you using, on which OS (and release)? What Export Preset are you using, or which options have you chosen in the More... part of the Export dialog? Can you provide a sample Affinity document and the PDF file you generated from it that cause this problem?

"Save As" in the Affinity applications will only save in an Affinity native format, e.g, .afdesign, .afphoto, or .afpub. If you want to save in some other format and change the name you need to use Export.

Can you give an example of what you'd like to see?

That's why having your IDML file would help.

It's also a comment on the new implementation, which may be useful in making further improvements to the new code. Especially if the % encoding in the middle is an error for mailto addresses.

It would probably help to have the IDML file, too.

Perhaps you should also mention that in the .1167 topic?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Yes, it has RGB Parade, accessed in the same way described above.

Microsoft, Apple, and Serif do not share customer information, and even if they did there is no guarantee that you would use the same email address when purchasing from the different companies. The new Registration (Account Synch) function that was introduced does allow Serif to track which machines you've used your licenses on, regardless of purchase Store, but it's optional and is only used today to simplify downloading other content from the Affinity Store.

You don't really need that font, as far as I can see, because there are no text-based exercises in that part of the workbook. But if you want it, you can get it from https://fonts.google.com

Or simply dragging them up or down in the Layers panel, making sure to "drop" with the mouse pointer to the left of the target layer's thumbnail.

I can only get to 500% on Windows. Above that it reverts to 500 when I press enter, as mentioned above. Possibly a Windows vs Mac difference?

The forum system that Serif has chosen to use seems to support dark themes, but I don't think that Serif has installed or activated any. If you use Firefox there are extensions available that say they can implement dark mode for sites that don't support it, so you might consider one of them. I have not tried any of them so I can't say how well they work, nor do I know if they are available in other browsers.

They are available for you to install from the LibreOffice GitHub site given in the FAQ, though you will need to download the US or UK English hyphenation dictionary and rename it if you want automatic hyphenation to work in Publisher.

Because you purchased them from the Microsoft Store, just login to that Store again using the same Windows ID you used when you made the purchase, and they will be there in your library of purchased programs for you to install again.

Thanks for the screenshot, but I don't see the text cursor in the Text Frame. Can you click in the text to set the cursor in a word that you think should be hyphenated, and provide another screenshot like this one but with the text cursor visible? That way we can be sure what settings are being applied to the text in the frame. Edit: Also, welcome to the Serif Affinity forums.

You're welcome.

It doesn't say it is, so it probably isn't, but you could always try it yourself and see.

As I'm only a user I know less than the Serif team about their products and plans

Your login here (the forums) has no relation to your license and usage of the Affinity applications. It is entirely separate from any Affinity Store account you may have, and if you don't have an Affinity Store account already the Store will create one for you during the purchase process. (If you do have an account at the Store already, from prior downloads of free Store content or from registering your Microsoft Store application with Serif at version 1.9 or later, you should use that account when making the purchase.) There should be no problem, other than potential confusion on your part. But, of course, you could consider uninstalling your Microsoft Store version once you've purchased from Serif, and use the newly purchased application on all your Windows computers. They do not announce sales, but to make sure you don't miss one you could sign up for their newsletter: https://affinity.serif.com/newsletter/ (If I had to guess, I would guess the next sale would be around Black Friday.)

You're welcome. You can find the betas for any of the applications via a pinned topic near the top of the relevant the Beta forum.

Why do you want to find the license? What do you intend to do with it? Also, where did you purchase the product, and for which OS?
