Give them time - after all it's only been 5 years. -
Interface - active tab
henryg replied to henryg's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
I'm using the beta. Active tab identification is rubbish and has been so since AP first launched. Pretty sure I posted similarly years ago. -
I (still) find it far too difficult to identify the active tab (Photo) among the many I may have open. Why can't the active tab background or the text be a different colour (maybe green)? I can't find any setting to change this. To close the active tab, the only easy and reliable way I find is to use Ctrl-W.

from MSIX to MSI
henryg replied to jimh12345's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
But who would know it is there? You didn't and you seem to know pretty much everything (not sarcasm!). Maybe both, but certainly it should ask on install IMO. -
File save folder location
henryg replied to jkrm's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
And me. It's a PITA as is. -
from MSIX to MSI
henryg replied to jimh12345's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Great, but Preferences is the wrong place IMO. It should ask on install. And it didn't pick up my macros. -

All the folders? -
from MSIX to MSI
henryg replied to jimh12345's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
When I changed from msix to msi it didn't pick up my settings. Fortunately, I had taken a copy of my Workspaces folder. Same happened when I installed the beta alongside. -
Photo Management Software?
henryg replied to outrider's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
And use the hotkey to load images directly into Photo - user configurable. -

henryg replied to jimh12345's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
My way, and bear in mind I only use Photo. First find and copy the Workspaces folder for the msix version (you'll have to search for it), then install and run the msi version and hope it picks up your settings. Uninstall the msix version. If the new install has not picked up your settings, copy the Workspaces folder to the location of the new Workspaces folder (again search for it) and all should be well . If you have not customised the interface or shortcuts, you can safely uninstall the msix version and install the msi version. -
AP - Perspective correction
henryg replied to henryg's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I can't use a Macro to place generic lines to then move about 😢 -
AP - Perspective correction
henryg replied to henryg's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Thanks, I've got it working now. Probably an error using the pen tool initially. -
AP - Perspective correction

Anyone help me further? -
AP - Perspective correction
henryg replied to henryg's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I'm missing something, as I can't get the image after perspective correction to line up with the pen tool lines; your 2nd & 3rd images. -
AP - Perspective correction
henryg replied to henryg's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
That's interesting. Now the pen tool I tend to avoid as much as possible - can't remember the last time I used it, but will try it. I had tried using guides with limited success. -
I am familiar(ish) with both the live and normal perspective corrections tools, but don't know how to get the best result from the adjustment. When I drag outward left or right on the top handles to correct converging line distortion, the height of objects (buildings and people) become foreshortened so I drag the handles upwards to restore what looks like a proper ratio, but is there a way to get a "correct" ratio other than by eye/guessing? I find this particularly difficult when dealing with photos with people in the foreground.

MSI Installer upadate?
henryg replied to thegary's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
No, one Apple a day leads to severe financial problems. It's why I use Windows...oh, apart from my iPhone of course 😁 -
Version 2 and Windows 11
henryg replied to jared2814's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I have the odd freeze, but then that was also the case with Win 10. It feels slower, but my i5-8600 is probably struggling. -

henryg replied to thegary's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Only due to the howls of protest and anguish from users. But at least they did it.
