  1. There are no brush options available in Designer Persona Ver 2 (see screenshot) The only way it worked was if I composed the file in Ver 1
  2. Yes Marc, you are right, I'd make a lousy scientist ! But just to confirm, the test file created in V1 works fine in V2, but a new file doesn't, so no, the problem isn't solved 😒
  3. Reinstalled V2, deleted non basic brushes, No Hardware Acceleration. Video 1 shows the making of the file in Ver 1 Video 2 shows that same file working okay in Designer Ver2. Thanks for your help. Affinity Designer 2023-01-29 20-56-49.mp4 Affinity Designer 2023-01-29 21-04-17.mp4 Designer V1 Border Test.afdesign
  4. In Ver 2 I don't have the option to use/access any brushes in Designer Persona. Hardware Acceleration was already off (Nvidia Qaudro K2200 card apparently not supported)
  5. Sorry Walt, I didn't save the files, i could do it again. I don't have an option to use the brushes in V2 Designer Persona
  6. Thanks for your reply, I have made 2 recordings (first time I have done this) hopefully they are okay. Affinity Designer 2023-01-29 08-44-20.mp4 Affinity Designer 2 2023-01-29 08-46-58.mp4
  7. Hi, I have been using Designer V1 for years mainly for band posters and birthday cards for family etc, prior to using Designer I used Illustrator. For some reason when I try to add a textured border stroke to a shape it just won't apply. I can still do the same thing in Designer perfectly well, as I always have. There maybe a slightly different approach in V2, but I couldn't imagine why. I will attach a file from V1 to demonstrate what I'm trying to achieve in V2. Hope you can point me in the right direction Thanks Lindsay
  8. Thanks very much for your feedback everybody, at this point I haven't tried your suggestions, but hopefully will do soon, In the meantime I thought it might be a good idea to show a better example of how I used feather in Illustrator.... I like how the top layer blends with the bottom.. (this example was done very quickly, without much detail...) Thanks Lindsay
  9. The one thing I miss the most from Illustrator is "Feather" (Effect/Stylize/Feather) I used it regularly, now I'm loving Designer and have been for quite some time, but would be over the moon to have that feature !
  10. I have downloaded both photo and designer beta versions, opened both programs several times, done a restart, opened both several times again... No Problems !!
  11. The Release version 1.7.3.481 seems okay, I haven't tried the Beta version from that time, I still have it, might just try..
  12. Well you got my blood pulsing ! So I downloaded 1.8.1.604 and yes it fired up first time......but alas not the second, third or fourth times !
  13. Downloaded 1.7.3 and decided to open 1.858 before uninstalling, and hello it opens again...very inconsistent !
  14. I uninstalled Photo and Designer beta. Before uninstalling Designer .585 I decided to see if it would start, and it did (I had a job I needed to do) I did several hours of work on, it then shut it down. It wouldn't start today... I noticed yesterday that while auditioning different fonts on an existing text, the behaviour was all over the place, no previews, jumping from A to P and whatever, never had that before. Although I haveen't installed any new fonts for quite some time, I'm wondering if this area maybe causing the problems ?
  15. Thanks Gabe, I will try that out when I get up in the morning..
  16. Yes I saw the Met Service line, it was the only thing that showed up in the viewer. I have deleted it, its a Microsoft app.. I restarted my pc after that, so now I shall start the viewer and then Designer.. Designer beta started up! I then opened Photo, then closed both, neither would start up again. Release version did the same... The were 5 events, I saved but not sure if you can read them, I might just do them again individually just in case 5 More Affinity events.evtx
  17. While looking through the event viewer decided to try opening beta Designer and it opens...so I do some work with it, close it, open again, but not opening again ? Release version didn't open, and neither did Photo. I will install the new beta update and see what happens (1.8.1.595) Okay, wont start up, will do a restart..... Affinity Startup.evtx
