in other words, please help me KILL this...so i never see it again

Greetings! Im not sure when things changed, but recently i have run into Resource Manager telling me that pieces are "missing." How do you get it to "embed" the image like it used too? (thus not depending on keeping outside parts, but everything is in ONE file) This approach is quite frustrating, as i have assumed anything i copy into Designer is actually IN designer. So i get rid of/move the imported parts. Help?

the only problem to that is Adobe. I prefer not to support Artistic Slavery 🙂

Greetings! As a liberated Adobe user, (may they burn to the ground) one of the most useful features in Illustrator was the ability to "tile" print outs. Meaning i have an art board 3 or 4 times the size of my paper which it then figures out how to print "automatically" with a slight overlap. What is a good tactic to do so in Designer? (which i love, except for that random "hit print the first time and it crashes" bug) Thanks!

Ok, I’m sure this is a stupid question, but for the life of me I can find how to do it. On the desktop Verizon you just hit the button at the bottom of the layer palette (that looks like a Japanese flag) and it makes what you have selected mask the layer you are on. ‘any ideas?

Hmm.. it just so happens that I did reinstall parallels which apparently does have a clip board app associated to it. I killed it. So we will see if that was it. Might take a while, since it was a very random occurrence though

It is a bit random, but once it happens in a file, it seems to be associated with it. Selecting the layer, then keyboard shortcut command +c will instigate an immediate crash /disappearing of the app. Once it happens, that layer that was selected is apparently associated with the crash, and will repeat it every time you try to copy it. (regardless of keyboard shortcut or menu selection). Selecting a different layer to copy in the affected file does NOT crash it though. Strangely, It seems to only effect groups. Once a group copy operation has crashed it, the group is “uncopyable” without crashing. Has happened to me several times in a row, but then it copied. Not sure what process got me past this in photo . But eventually (6 crashes later) I got it to copy. Sending it to designer, it let me copy the effected group. Very strange. it is however, a somewhat rare occurrence. Has happened in only three files over the last few weeks. Not sure what’s going on there. Photo is version 1.8.3. Mac OS is 10.15.5. Newish 2019 iMac.

Thanks!

Is there any way to open designer files straight from apples “files’ app now? It used to be listed as an option when you chose “share’. But Designer is no longer listed, nor can it seemingly be added/associated with a design files. Have I screwed something up? also, it would be extremely helpful if AD would generate a preview for files to display ;-) thanks and sorry for stupid questions?

Greetings, on the mac version, selecting multiple points with the node tool and then hitting the vertical or horizontal alignment button elicits the desired alignment of the selected points only. on the iPad version, using the same method, the entire object itself moves, instead of the points. FYI

Greetings! quick question, how do you align points in the iPad version? On the desktop, you can use the node tool to select a few points and then align the horizontally or vertically with the general alignment buttons. On iPad it moves the entire object? Am I doing something wrong?

Airdrop works for me :-). (Under export/share) I’d also suggest a neat app on iPad called FileBrowser Biz which allows “computer” file sharing to pretty much everything.

Just hoping things might have changed....

Is there any way to “flip” a vector layer mask? For instance, to use a shape to “key out” the outside of its shape, not the inside? (If not, can this make the new feature list?) thanks sf

There needs to be an easier way to move a file back and forth between designer and photo.... could you put a button for transferring thing? (Or is there one I haven’t found?)
