+1 for this, it would be extremely handy to have a button that would set that slice dimensions to match the canvas/document. I'm exporting product shots, there are about 40 dog collars that all need to be the same final dimensions, but they take up different dimensions within the document. I have to manually drag the boundaries of every slice to make this happen.

Man this is a pretty basic need, please consider adding this feature. 2022 and still not here
-
Good thinking. I really wish they would allow Set Decoration Color: Text as a default option. I'm not a programmer but I would think this is an easy thing to implement.

Currently, when I re-open an old project (or have 2 or more open projects) and export assets, the file path opens to the last location used by the application. That means I am constantly having to track down the folder that the document belongs in, to keep things organized.
Is it possible to have Designer remember the Save To file path on a document basis, instead of as a global application basis? That would make things so much simpler and easier to work with.

On Publisher 1.81 I'm happy to say that Column Break and Frame Break hotkeys now work properly! Thank you!
Page Break hotkey still exhibits the same incorrect behavior—it produces a space, while selecting the option from the dropdown menu does work properly.

Either go to your “Purchases” section, or do a search for the app in the App Store. Once there, the button should read Update instead of Buy.
This worked, I had to go into Purchases and install it again. It never offered me the option to "Update". Thanks for the tip

Hi there, I purchased Designer and Photo through the App store, while I have Publisher through the Affinity store.
Publisher and Designer have been updating just fine, but Photo does not—despite following the official instructions (making sure to reload the App Store page to try and force the update to appear). Affinity Photo is still stuck at 1.7.3 and it will not appear in the Updates section of the App store. Any ideas?
I am on High Sierra 10.13.6

UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (Free for existing customers)
The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in application menu, Affinity Photo > About).
If you’ve purchased from the Mac App Store— updates are done automatically next time you run your software after it is available in the Mac App Store. If this does not happen for you, open the Mac App Store app and go to the Updates page and then Store > Reload page or press CMD+R. This should hopefully force the update to show. Apple sometimes phase roll outs around the world which can mean it may take up to 72 hours for your update to be available.

I came to make a request for this. It's absolutely needed and extremely useful!! I have several documents that grow over time as new information gets added.
For example one is a list of Wine Awards—when a new award comes in, I make a new page in the appropriate section and let the following pages shuffle down. Having the ability to define Custom Fields would allow me to set up inputs for repeating subheads (for a subgroup of awards all coming from the same competition for example).
Hoping this makes it into APub 1.8

I have bound hotkeys to Text > Insert > Line Break, Column Break, Frame Break, and Page Break.
The only hotkey that works correctly is the default Line Break hotkey (Shift+Return).
The others do not work as expected.
Column Break (bound to Opt+Return) produces a Paragraph Break.
Frame Break (bound to Opt+Enter) produces a Paragraph Break.
Page Break (bound to Shift+Enter) produces a Space of some kind, however it doesn't show the blue dot that a normal space shows when you enable Show Special Characters. It has no symbol.
Selecting each option from the mouse menu works as expected.

and because if you have to export as single page PDF's for web viewing you'll be screwed ....
Exactly. Some printers also request individual pages for some reason. We either need multipage support or AT LEAST the ability to independently change the size of facing pages
-
+ 100 for this! tried to manually increase the size of the right-hand page in a facing spread, but it increases the size of BOTH pages. I can't make a page with a fold-in tab without a frustrating workaround. I love Publisher and canceled Adobe (I've purchased everything Serif makes) in trust that some of these issues will be getting addressed.
-
+1 to add this feature, I look for it every couple months
-
This and a replacement for the transformation panel are two HUGE features that are needed constantly. Hoping Serif puts them on the priority list. And fixing the stroke expansion...

You don't have integer values for Position (X, Y) and Size (W, H). When you export in a raster format, those values fall in between full pixels, therefore you will have "lines". If you fix the values (Just round them up to the nearest integer value) you should be fine.
Ah, so even when working on projects destined for print it may be a good idea to use "force pixel alignment"?

Woot! Pre-ordered and ready to go.
Feature question: Will we see the ability to Span Columns (and likewise, Split Columns) on individual lines of text? This is indispensable for setting a double column layout with a single spanning headline, I use this feature in InDesign in about a third of all my projects.
-
If I make any two straight-edged object and align their straight sides, Designer still shows (and outputs) a small gap between them.
I have a series of triangles with rectangles beneath them, making white pillars. Unless I overlap them, Designer outputs a faint grey line between the two objects, when I expect there to be no visible gap.

YES. Also: this.
I'll definitely be using Publisher for most (if not all) of my projects as soon as it comes out of beta. Bring on the multi-line composer with hyphenation fine-tuning controls, and I'll be using it for typesetting entire books, too.
And the ability to Span Columns!

When I try to select more than one image at a time to place into text frames, Publisher crashes immediately
-
Great, you guys are on it. Love that. Pub was hanging all day yesterday, and here you are already solving the issue.

Not that I would recommend it for anyone else, but I took the leap and discontinued my Adobe subscription already. Using Publisher daily and it hasn't let me down yet!

Symmetrical Corners for Dashed Stroke
in Feedback for Affinity Designer V1 on Desktop
Posted
We need a checkbox to force the corners of a dashed stroke object to be the same. Currently it's almost impossible to achieve a symmetrical look when using a dashed stroke on a rectangle, even when messing with the Dash, Space, and Phase values.
Illustrator does this well and it's really useful.
