Exactly. Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I want them moved out from the current Apply this orientation to Each And Every Preset location to a Apply this orientation to this preset every time it is chosen (but still let me alter it as a one time thing).

That sounds like a problem where the color space you designed in was different than the profile that was exported. If you haven't already, it might be worth testing out different color profiles to see if any of them look the way you expect.

Just want to say, hoping that renaming documents will be possible in the future. Saving As isn't a great option since you then also need to delete the original if all you want is a different name. Why add an extra step if you don't need it?

I think the entire point of Publisher is that we can do layout and make design elements and adjust photos in one place without having to leave the app. I love it! It's really helpful having the option to create or adjust design elements as needed, without having to leave Publisher. If I'm reusing a design asset, I might realize the color or transparency or etc. doesn't quite work in the new project. Now I can adjust it immediately, in Publisher.  Not everyone will need access to all of the design features - that doesn't stop them from being helpful to others.

We should be able to switch seamlessly from one mode to the other, without any need for cutting and pasting. Read about how PagePlus does it.

There definitely is a transparency/color issue there! That must be frustrating.
Since the Affinity programs were originally built for macOS instead of Windows, I wouldn't count on the programs being similar internally. I think that if it was feasible in a reasonable amount of time, they would make importing work.
 

A "story" persona in Publisher would make a LOT of sense actually...  you would select a text box that may or may not be linked to other text boxes to form a story, then switching to the story persona would give you a more word-processor-like interface to edit that story in isolation from the rest of the layout.
I like that idea.

That's definitely helpful for anyone with a mouse, though not everyone uses one.

I had the same problem. In my case switching personas out of Photo, then opening the Photo app, and then trying the Photo persona again resolved the issue.

On macOS, you can enable split view to have 2 app windows open side by side in fullscreen. To do so, hold down (with force if using a touchpad) on the green fullscreen button of one window (ie. Finder) and drag to the left or right. Then choose the 2nd open program (ie. Publisher) from the selection of open windows. The 2 windows will automatically fill half of the screen each - but you can drag between them to resize horizontally. So you could have a narrow Finder window next to a wide Publisher window in fullscreen. This could be too cramped on a small screen.

When I looked in Gmail, the publisher release email was hiding under the promotions tab. If you haven't received the email yet, and use a gmail account, you might want to check there.

Hi bripriuk,
You can use the mouse wheel to change the font size (this behaviour is available in all measure control).
If you press Shift with mouse wheel you will have a 10 increment
If you press CTRL with mouse wheel you will have a 1/10 increment
If you used the mouse wheel only you will have an increment of 1.
In my opinion it's better than the slide bar.
Thanks!
 

I had to zoom in a serious amount to see the eye icon (to at least 396%) - perhaps due to a high resolution screen. It should probably be a little more obvious.
