NathanC, it worked a treat. Thankyou very much. Paul

Hi all, Please see the attached screenshot. Self explanatory I think. I've recently updated to version 2.6.3. Help please! Paul

Hi all, I hope that you're well. In Affinity photo 2 under the account menu (top right) there is a 'recent' section. It's in the same menu list as 'account', 'open' etc. I have 'recents' turned off generically on my Mac, yet recently opened files still appear here. How to I turn that off so that files never appear here? Many thanks. Paul

Hiya, From your prompt I've worked out what the problem is. I've typed up text elsewhere and copied and pasted it into the text frame, changing font etc, but not the language. If I look elsewhere in the document at a text frame that I haven't copied etc., then it all works as it should. Thanks, both of you, for your time. Paul

Old Bruce, hi. OK, I can see that, thank you, so let me change my question. How do I get all text fields, in every document I ever open (i.e. the default) to be UK English so that it checks spelling. It used to work. Now it doesn't. Cheers Paul

Hi thomaso, Thanks for replying. I mean that after I've selected my language in the panel dropdown I click back into my document's text box to continue typing. At that point the language reverts to none. Hope that makes sense. Paul

Hi all, I hope you're well, I'm using Publisher V1 on a Mac with Ventura 13.0. My spell check is not working -- no highlight of spelling errors, or when I bring up the spelling options box from the text menu -- even when I type intentional errors. I have read a previous post that led me to look in the character panel... language. It is set for 'none' and I thought I'd cracked it. However when I change the spelling option to 'English (United Kingdom)' and click back into my document it changes back to 'none'. What am I doing wrong? Cheers Paul

Hi all, Is there any reason to save and work in afphoto rather than TIFF? With afphoto I cannot view my photos on any application other than AP. I can't browse through and enjoy a selection of them without either opening them all in AP or exporting them all as something else. If I then make further changes to the original file(s) I need to ensure that I've deleted these previous exported versions to avoid confusion. So, what I do at the moment is make my edits to the original file and then export it as TIFF. If I require further adjustments I can reopen the TIFF and carry on. I close the original file without saving. I now have the original, unchanged file, and an edited TIFF. Not an afphoto in sight! Does anyone know of a reason why I shouldn't be doing that? And if not then what is the purpose of afphoto? Cheers Paul

Thanks Fixx

Hi all, I'm currently road testing Affinity Photo and so far am extremely impressed. I want to use it as a replacement for the Lightroom, Photoshop workflow. However I have reached an impasse when it comes to files that I've adjusted in LR. For instance if I go to the LR develop module and make an edit, be it crop, white balance, whatever and then try to open that same file in Affinity Photo it will not show any of the changes. I'm confused by that because my understanding was that RAW files contain the editing information in the 'background' so was expecting Affinity to be able to read them with their RAW engine. That not being the case does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can migrate, as such, my LR adjusted photos. I do know that I can export all the adjusted files, but that would 'bake in' the non-destructive edits; not something I want to do unless I have no other choice. Hopefully this rambling will make sense. Many thanks in advance for any help or advice. Paul
