The Complete Guide to Affinity Designer by Jeremy Hazel from Udemy.com is another great course. Are Simon's courses for Designer or Photo?

in the paragraph tab, click on justification and set your word spacing (kerning) and letter spacing (tracking). are you in left justify or justify all (otherwise called right/left justify)? i'm not an expert, but i used to set type and this sounds reasonable.

i had the same thing happen. i just opened and closed Photo and then went to Publisher and the links worked.

how is text warping accessed in Photopea?

udemy.com has hundreds of tutorials, and a whole bunch on Affinity Designer and Photo. they are usually $10-$20; don't pay any more than that, just wait a few days and they will have some kind of sale.

There is now a printed workbook for Affinity Photo. Check the website for details.

Affinity Photo has this feature, but AD does not at this time. Maybe in a future update.

thanks, guys. i guess i'm just going to have to poke around these sites and experiment until i find what i need. of course, i can always ask a question here!!!!!

if i want to learn a new technique, such as making a dashed line or using tabs in a paragraph, and the online help doesn't offer anything and neither does the workbook, where is there i can go to get the instructions? is there a resource for looking up details of tools and operations?

i would like the ability to change the margin colors the way you can change the grid line colors.

there's another thing that has happened to me several times; the program has locked up. i can't do anything. sometimes i get a message that says the program is not responding. a couple of times it has unlocked itself, and a couple of times i have had to go to the task manager to end the process. i'm now going to try reinstalling the program and see if that stops the problem from happening again. other than that, i love Designer, and am having a ball learning all about it. thank goodness for this forum!!!

so my pen tool in Designer started doing very weird things. i couldn't just use the tool to go from point to point (i know i will not be able to give a good description; it was just acting haywire.) i tried using the different modes and it didn't help. i ended up opening up Designer to the factory defaults and now the pen is fine. but, i lost some of the brushes i had imported (i did note them before i reinstalled; figured i would lose them.) my question is: is there any way to reset just the pen tool if, and when, it starts acting haywire again. have you ever had the pen tool do anything like this? yes, i'm the person who messed up my studio not too long ago; fixed it by resetting it. i have no idea how i do these things. maybe sometimes i just get too enthusiastic.

got it! thank you

i've tried putting in pms numbers and names and nothing happens. is it supposed to bring up a swatch of that color? can you explain more? thanks for your time!

What is the search feature for at the bottom of the swatches panel? What can you search for?
