Odd glyphs in PDF
Alfred replied to David Gamble's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
What font are you using, David? It looks as though there are some unusual (discretionary?) ligatures in there. -
Saving Pixel Brushes Adding Multiples Copies
Alfred replied to awakenedbyowls's topic in V2 Bugs found on iPad
I don’t think I’ve ever initiated a screen recording via the Settings app! I just swipe down from the top right-hand corner of the screen to display the Control Centre, and then tap on the Screen Recording icon there. -
It's new PC time. And I hate that.

Talents behind Affinity 2
Alfred replied to PaoloT's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products

Sorry, William, I lost track of this thread! Please try Lee’s suggestion. I presume that the “footer bar” to which you refer is commonly known as the “taskbar”. You can set it to autohide on Windows 10 (so that it slides out of view until you mouse over the bottom edge of the screen); I imagine the same applies to Windows 11.

[Solved] Designer 2 iPad Transparency option

What was the something else, and how did you solve the problem? -
placed vs actual DPI
Alfred replied to Vikjohn's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
If you click them into position they should be placed at their native resolution, but if you drag them out to anything larger than their native dimensions you’ll spread the original pixels over a larger area and the resolution will decrease. -

Modifier keys in select mode
Alfred replied to Michael Lewis's topic in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products
<pedantry>Dismissing a selection is the same as deselecting, but hiding (via the ‘Show Pixel Selection’ toggle) doesn’t deselect anything.</pedantry> -
You can create a custom activity stream to cater for that scenario: 1. Go to ‘Activity > My Activity Streams’. 2. Press the ‘Create New Stream’ button. 3. Type something meaningful into the Stream Title box. 4. Change the Read Status setting to ‘Content I haven’t read’. 5. Change the Following setting to ‘Only content I follow’. 6. Press ‘Save Changes’ (near the bottom of the page). Your chosen stream title will now appear under Custom Streams in the ‘My Activity Streams’ menu.

‘Vectoriser le contour’ works as expected for me in AD2 on iPad, but the text in the French menus is tiny!

joining strokes was a problem which led to another…
Alfred replied to fruid's topic in V1 Bugs found on iPads
Those files are only in the application sandbox. They can be retained if you offload the app, but if you delete the app the entire sandbox area will be cleared out and any files only stored there will be deleted permanently. -

Alfred replied to fruid's topic in V1 Bugs found on iPads
It’s no longer available to buy, but if you visit the Purchased section in the iPad App Store (by tapping on your avatar and then tapping on ‘Purchased’ in the Account dialog that pops up) you should see it listed there. -

Alfred replied to fruid's topic in V1 Bugs found on iPads
You’re reporting a bug in Designer v1 on iPad, so the ‘Designer V1 Bugs on iPad’ section is exactly the right place! Designer v2 is an upgrade, not an update, so it’s a separate purchase. Version 1 will continue to function, so there’s no need to upgrade if you don’t want to do so. -
Drop Caps disables ligatures
Alfred replied to qarkeed's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
One consequence is that editing could be marginally more complicated. Suppose, for example, that you had intended to type “fury” but accidentally hit the i key instead of the u key; an automatic fi ligature in the typed text would mean that you’d have to correct “fi” to “fu” instead of simply replacing one letter. -
A4 to A3 conversion
Alfred replied to Plasmazone's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Sorry, I suppose I must have been thinking of the options available when printing a PDF file. You can apply a scale factor at that point. -
A4 to A3 conversion
Alfred replied to Plasmazone's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
If you’re outputting to PDF you can simply scale the whole thing up by a factor of 141% on export. -
The currency shown on the site will default to that of your perceived location. I once had the weird experience of seeing prices in the Affinity Store with the currency set to Turkish Lira (TRY) instead of British Pound (GBP), but the problem went away when I switched off my VPN.
