  1. Problem solved! Have a look at the new screenshot Walt.. Thanks for your help 😁
  2. 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
  3. 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 😒
  4. 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
  5. 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)
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. No worries Mark, I shall have a look for it..
  10. 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
  11. 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 !
  12. I have downloaded both photo and designer beta versions, opened both programs several times, done a restart, opened both several times again... No Problems !!
  13. 1.7.2.464 Beta version seems to work okay,,,,,
  14. 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..
  15. 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 !
  16. Downloaded 1.7.3 and decided to open 1.858 before uninstalling, and hello it opens again...very inconsistent !
  17. 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 ?
  18. Thanks Gabe, I will try that out when I get up in the morning..

  20. 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
  21. 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
