OK. Makes sense. That doesn't apply to me, though, and I would've appreciated the option on installation.

As I said above, V2 does not uninstall the previous versions. I have grown accustomed to updates of most programs removing files that are no longer needed, i..e. previous installations, and am disappointed by what I regard as an oversight. I will have to perform the steps you omitted for each of the three upgrades I have installed, and carefully check the leftover files in hopes of NOT accidentally removing some file that V2 needs. Is there any reason one would need or want to keep the V1 Affinity programs installed after installing V2?

So all three Affinity programs can be used for this purpose. I'll have to try Publisher and Designer myself as well, and compare them. Thanks!

Hi. I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere, but I'm not on the forums a lot so I may have just missed it: In my experience, Affinity Photo is ALSO the best PDF editor I've ever used. I suggest any Affinity Photo users who need to edit a PDF try it out for this purpose. Thanks, --Bruce Duncan (And no, I don't need to reset my password. That is my registered email with Affinity.)

Thanks, Walt! --Cyranose

I see a number of downloads on more than one program when I open a given application and bring up my account. Should I install them separately on each application they appear in? Else, how do I know which works with which? Thanks!

The title says it all. I saw it in a tutorial, but somehow missed the explanation of how to set Affinity Photo preferences up for it and can't find the tutorial again OR how to do it in Help or Preferences. It is apparently possible to display a brush as an outer circle showing the edge of the brush and an inner circle -- if the brush has a hardness of less than 100% -- showing the point at which it becomes "hard. Advice appreciated. --Cyranose

DM1, Thanks! I haven't had a chance to look this over yet, but I hope it's no too different from the desktop version, which is what I have. Thanks again, --Cyranose

GaryLearnTech, Thanks! I'll try that. --Cyranose

v_kyr, Thanks for the links! --Cyranose

I know there's a PDF compendium of Affinity Photo help files, and I find it very helpful. I am wondering if there is a similar compendium for Affinity Designer (and/or Publisher?), and if so where I can find it. Thanks! Cyranose

Hi. The title says it all. When I export an AP file as a TIFF, whether 8-bit RGB or CMYK, I can't open it in Painter. I keep getting "unsupported compression method." Anything I can do about this?

Lagarto, Bri-Toon, I'm afraid I can't help with either of those questions. Those options would indeed be nice to have, though. Perhaps someone at Affinity is listening? (Hint, hint.)

(Raises hand): I know! I know! I discovered this one by accident, since I couldn't figure out how to flip a pasted item and couldn't find anything in Affinity Photo Help on the topic. When I did it, I felt a sense of wonder and a childlike glee -- everything should be this simple. To flip horizontally, grab the right side of the bounding box and DRAG IT OVER THE LEFT BOUNDARY! The image will reverse!!! To do it vertically, grab the bottom and drag it over the top! --Cyranose

Thanks. I stared at that a bit, then looked at WYSIWYG's site trying to figure out their relationship. I eventually found text implying that Quick&Easy was WYSIWYG's precursor. (See attached screengrab.)
