[Scaled document to print - at 300 resolution.]

Thanks to all for the info and tips.

[Scaled document to print - at 300 resolution.]

Hello thanks for answer,

The design is for a fair stand. The measurement is 9 x 3 meters.
The art has many objects such as texts, some photos, gradient backgrounds, etc.

So I could create a real scale 1:1 document whitout problems to move and edit, and export it at 150? Is it enough to be seen sharpen?

[Scaled document to print - at 300 resolution.]

Hello there,

I want to design something that has large dimensions that are around 10 meters.

My Doubt is:
I want to print an art that measures 10 meters with the highest quality.
If I create it in a document scaled 1:10 = (1000 m)

Could you use it to export as PDF/300 res. and print at a printing press without losing quality?

Thanks!

[EDITING PDF TEXT LAYOUT GO CRAZY (v2.4) - 2/2024]

Hello everyone,
I have a question.
How can I import a PDF correctly as the original?
It asks me if I want to replace text, but this doesn't work correctly, it breaks the original layout.
Can i get it with the text as curves?

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick answers!
I love this software anyway.🫶

[Brush "Flow: 0% to 100% and Window: 1 to 128 (AP 2.2 - Desk-Win)]

Hi there,

Im with A. Photo, and have a question about using brushes.

With the Brush 'Tool selected', in the 'Menu top bar' appear two differents options. Like you can see in the attached.
One (Flow) can change from 1% to 100% and the second one (Window) from 1 to 128.

What is the difference? Because both tooltips say the same (Choose flow of the brush) but i can't see the difference. Can anyone say me what is the work of the second?

 

Thanks!
Lester

[Problems with "Smudge Brush Tool", "Paint Brush", Saving documents, ...!]

Hi there,

I am having serious problems with Affinity Photo.
-Smudge tool, it's horrible when editing. Strength is also not responding as it should
-Brush does not paint 100%
When you reboot everything goes back ok or seems so.
-The saved files don't really save, I've lost a lot of work because of this bug.

It all seems really hopeless and highly frustrating to me.

I don't know what is happening, sometimes I also have problems with A.Designer, with the same file sometimes it goes well and other times the export takes too long and they are not large files. I thought it could be Dropbox but I already verified that it is not the problem.

Friends, I don't know what's going on, I hope you can fix this soon, because it's not healthy to work like this, seriously. I'm almost crying when this happens.
I have version 2 of AF for Win, and this all seems like a bad joke to me.

[What's going on guys?!]

If you want Bleed in a Photo document just make the Photo document bigger. This is the way we used to do it in the caveman days. You need an 8 1/2 x 11 inch cover photo with bleed? Make a 9 x 12 inch photo.

Cool thanks.

I think it is not really important to have this option in Affinity Photo for most users. That may be the reason why it is missing. Even Photoshop doesn't offer this option, as far as I know. But there are workarounds on Youtube for it. Maybe that will help you too somehow.

Yes, you have a reason, you don't always need to bleed in production, I think that printing programs in printers already add this when necessary. I come from the old school. If they ask for it, then I add it. 

Thanks!

Bleed can be set in Affinity Designer and Publisher, but not in Photo.

Also you can use the personas(studiolink) when starting out or opening in publisher.
And there's also "edit in" option to switch between the 3 programs as a solo program. 

Mmm ok ok. I think I have forgotten many aspects, one of them is that everything is different now, I have found a solution. Thank you very much for the quick help.

[Where is the bleed tab when create a new document?]

Thanks. I don't know why they disabled it. Now you must to design in Designer, then retouch in Photo and export in Publisher, really?
I havent any problem to export from Designer, but i dont know the same image show with a diferent deep of color. Mama mia!

[How to show the nº of objects info, when Artboard or group is selected?]

Hi @carl123,

I don't wanna to know, i want to see it.
I saw this feature on 3D software.
I don't know, In my opinion, it is and would be a very interesting feature, since at some point it will be useful to you, I think.

My intention is none other than to behave as one more user of this great community and that sometimes has concerns like these and that they like to express, no more.

I hope I have explained myself well and you understand me..
 

[How to show the nº of objects info, when Artboard or group is selected?]

Hi @NathanC
I'm pretty sure few people don't care what you have selected, you can see it, assuming you have the selection boxes enabled. I mean to be able to see a hierarchy, and also, if the arboards are called simply as objects, then why when I delete one, it prevents me from deleting what it contains, that is, it knows what is inside it...

[How to show the nº of objects info, when Artboard or group is selected?]

Hi everyone,
I have a quiestion, there are any way to show when you select an arboard (in Aff.Des. e.g.) the numbers of groups and released objects contained? Somethink like 4 groups - 3 ungroups. If you select the group, also show you a info of a number objects inside.

If not, could it be seen in the future?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Lester FM
