Thanks for the link/info.
Hi MEB,
I downloaded the latest released Affinity Photo 1.8.1 from the Mac App Store. Unfortunately, this time a crash occurs when you exit the application.

Thanks for that information, when saving to an external drive you will be 'bottlenecked' by the slower speed of the drives connection to your computer. Unfortunately there's not much Affinity can do to improve these save times when saving externally, as there is an additional 'step' in the saving progress which causes the slight delay you're seeing.
If you can, saving to internal memory will likely be quicker and slightly more stable.
Thanks for your help. I copied the project file to the system disk. But nothing changed about speed. For example, I add only 1 character to the text on a page and save it with command + s. Processing time is too long. Can you have any other advice?

Thanks for your screen recording - I can see the Save dialog appears instantly when using File>Save, then around 4 seconds later the progress bar begins to move, 2-3 seconds later the save operation is complete.
This is to be expected when saving your document, as Affinity has to collate the file and if over 33% of the document has been changed the has to be 'Streamlined' which takes slightly longer than a usual save operation, as explained in the following post -
What location are you saving to on your Mac please? (ie Locally, or to a Cloud storage?)
Thanks for your reply. I add new pages and add articles for the book I prepared. I save the project with command + s every 2-3 minutes. The time has come so long. I keep the project on an external disk (Samsung T5 SSD 512 GB).

Hi coral
Under the File menu, do you have Save History with Document ticked? If so, this can increase save times for documents and you can disable this should you not require the feature.
Secondly, if you use File>Save As to save the file as a new document, does this save action complete quicker for you?
Hi Dan C
Save History With Document option is not ticked. I tried with File> Save As, but nothing changed.
Looks like:

I'm creating a 50-page book in Affinity Publisher. Whenever I save, it takes about 5-7 seconds for the progress bar to appear. This becomes very annoying over time. A popup with a Saving screen appears and the operation cannot continue until the saving process is finished.
Is the time taken for saving normal? Wouldn't it be better if you performed a background process for this saving?Affinity Publisher 1.7.3

Hi Daniel,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
There will be an iOS Mirror app soon but there's isn't much details about it yet. MattP (one of the developers) shared a few details here in this thread (page 4).
I'm not aware of a similar app for Android devices at this point.
Hi MEB, any updates on this feature?

Why Affinity still does not offer RTL support (for Hebrew, Persian, Arabic etc.) even after many years. However, if this prepares RTL support, it's sure to make a lot of money. Because I'm sure there are thousands of designers who need RTL typography. The question is: Is Affinity incredibly rich, doesn't it need money Or is RTL support not an important part of these professional (!) programs? A place where the mind stops.

Hi Amr,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
As said in the original post this is something we do plan to implement but not in the short/medium term. There's still a lot of work in other areas that must be done first, sorry.Hi MEB,
will you support RTL languages (Arabic for example) any time soon? -

Thank you to the Affinity developer team. I used Adobe products over 18 years. Now I'm in Affinity.
Everything is very beautiful. I believe it will be even better. Thank you. -
Hi GabrielM,
Thank you very much for your help. -
When I grab an image from the web and enter it into Affinity Photo with Safari, the Flood Selection Tool is not working correctly. You can look at the video:

Hi MEB,
The same problem exists in Publisher 1.8.1. I use the 27-inch (2560 x 1440) Apple Thunderbolt Display.
