Is it me, but looking through the replies, I can't find any feedback from the Affinity. Is the forum monitored by the team or not? It would be nice to get some kind of official feedback !! 🙄

I have a Mac Studio with 32gb ram and more than enough free disk space. I use all three of Affinity applications and I can only say, load up times are getting worse. Every other piece of software such as Office 365, Photomator, Pexelmator, Final Cut, Black magic and Lightroom all load up faster than Affinity Apps. Perhaps Canva has cut back on the development team and we will not see any solution to the problem coming soon or do we have to wait until the paid version 3 upgrade? Come on Affinity Support team, don't use Apple security as the an excuse; you were once Apple application of the year and used to define great independant software.

I am running Affinity Publisher, Photo and Designer version 2 on my windows laptop. I get the normal pop-up about the version upgrade to 2.0.3 for publisher and photo but get the error that I cannot update, there is no explanation on why. I have tried downloading what I hoped to be the latest version direct from my account, but when trying to install it tells me that I have latest version installed. Any ideas anyone? Running Windows 10 21H2 16GB etc

Hello Alfred, thank you also for your reply. I realise that I need to set-up a new 'Master' document just to make sure everything is working correctly for me in the future. At least I now understand two more functions in Publisher and how I can adjust text to suit my designs. Thanks to both of you.

Hello Nathan, thank you very much for your quick reply and stopping me going mad. It thought it must be simple, but had no idea what to ask/use. Thanks again.

Can someone please help me with a problem? I do not know the technical word for how the first letter of a sentence is displayed in my screen shot below, but I don't want/like it displaying like it. I want a clean line of text, justified to the left. As I do not know the technical term, I do not know what to adjust. Thank you in advance.

Hi Walt, thank you for your reply. I had more time to investigate and it was a 'Path' thing. I played around with backup and used the resource manager but not as you explained. I also used 'Package' for the first time and that helped. For me its learning about the Mac environment as well but I'll get there. Thanks again.

Can anyone help. I have used the Windows version of all the Affinity products for a number of years. I am moving to the Mac system but have a problem with using existing PC created files. All images are pixelated when opened on the Mac but still look okay on the PC. I use OneDrive with the Affinity Projects stored on each system which are synced , so its not a cloud problem. My pre Mac process was that I designed my work using two different PC's using the same OneDrive synch process and did not have a problem with files or images even though OneDrive had different paths. What am I doing wrong on my new Mac. Can anyone help me.

"Thank you", to both of you; Its taking a while to learn the little details,, but I want to use the software efficiently and your help is greatly appreciated.

I have created Text styles and Bullet point styles for one 'News letter' and would like to use some of them in another (but different format) 'News letter'. Is there a way of importing/copy styles from one document to another. If you cannot, how can you delete some style from the Styles list? I tried searching for this topic but was unsuccessful.

Great tutorial. Its was by luck I clicked on your post and it inspired me to create the same effect. I am going to try the same with my video editing software. I need to watch more on your YouTube channel.

Hello firstdefence. I have a Logitec craft keyboard. Photo and Designer does not work with the 'dial' function. Shame really as I am moving away from Photoshop and Lightroom to Affinity software and ACDSee. Logitec will probably say its up to Affinity to add it via the SDK and Affinity will say Logitec should design a plug-in. I think that Affinity should develop the SDK for the Craft keyboard using the same functions as the Adobe software, this will be another nail in their coffin allowing Affinity to erode their position.
