Can't tell, but are you logged in to your Affinity account?

No worries! And good news, I have since learned how do it on my own.

Yes, I have that option now, but at the time I originally posted this, it wasn't an option. Thanks!

I just feel like they're missing an opportunity for those of who learn best by having that template to play with...it's a lot harder for me (or those who learn like I do) to start from scratch. Disappointing that they're not offered by default or at least an opportunity to add after install.

I can confirm it's working again in 1.8.5.703...I did not make any changes that I am aware of.

Yes...I said that above but not sure when last. And I even said I suspected it may have been Microsoft's included clipboard manager but also tried disabling that as well.

Are you using the latest release version? (here's how to check) Yes - Photo version 1.8.4.693 Can you reproduce it? (if you cannot then we may struggle to also, making it even harder to fix) Yes Does it happen for a new document? If not do you have a document you can share that shows the problem? Yes If you cannot provide a sample document then please give an accurate description of the problem for example it should include most of the following: What is your operating system and version (Windows 10, OSX Mojave, iOS 12 etc)? Windows 10 Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.423) (Version 10.0.1.19041 Build 19041) What happened for you (and what you expected to happen) I copied a text layer for the style (tried both clicking in the file menu and Ctrl+c) and attempted to paste the layer style on to a different text layer but Paste Style and Paste FX are both grayed out; also tried both Artistic Text Tool and Frame Text Tool just for kicks and got the same; also turned off my Windows 10 Clipboard history/multiple items option just in case because I had turned that on recently but it made no difference either Provide a recipe for creating the problem (step-by-step what you did). Copy a text layer (for the style) (doesn't matter method) > try to paste the layer style on to a new or different text layer - Paste Style and Paste FX are both grayed out so you cannot complete the action Screenshots (very handy) or a screen capture/video. Any unusual hardware (like tablets or external monitors or drives that may affect things) or relevant other applications like font managers or display managers. Did this same thing used to work and if so have you changed anything recently? (software or hardware) It did use to work but I'm not sure how far back...

It'd be nice to have them on-demand in app, in my opinion. The biggest perk I find is that I am self-taught and looking at the templates is how I most easily figure out what does what!

Awesome! I added my trick-or-treat flyer I made last night! Thanks!

Is there a resource for this? I can add what I've made as templates. Not sure where to upload them otherwise.

Any ETA for when it will be implemented?

I can press Ctrl + layer to select a layer but when I press Ctrl + D to Deselect, it doesn't work. Using the drop-down menu does work, however. Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit Affinity Designer 1.6.4.104

I've been pulling up my swatch in the color picker, going to the color overlay in fx and using the RGB slider, manually adding the RGB values...your way seems a little quicker!

Pretty sure I'm the absentee president!
