  1. Hello helpful GaryP and carl123, My projects tend to involve a lot of large photographs, so many that the local or OS SSD would soon fill up if I had too many projects on the go at the same time. For that reason I have my projects on an external SSD that is backed up via SuperDuper’s software to another SSD and a spinning HDD. Aha! I did not know that local, rather than external storage was the recommended way of doing things with Affinity. After banging my head against some walls and walking in circles muttering incantations, I have come to the realisation that all the copies and versions stem from one original file. Applying Occam’s razor suggests the first file was corrupted in some way and the dreaded lurgy — British English for a fictitious unspeakably horrible disease; much shouted in playgrounds — spread to the others. So, I will start from the beginning, groan, with a new AfPub file in a new folder, using the local OS disk for everything and then backup the folder to external disks. Thank you for your help. Sunny days, Leslie Q.
  2. P.S. I do not think it is just a hardware problem, because sometimes AfPub will not Save As to the main project disk. Leslie Q.
  3. Working on Mac Studio using OS Ventura 13.6.9, with Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 The project is on an external SSD. I have been working on a project using Affinity Publisher for several days with no problems. Opened AfPub file yesterday morning and the previous days saved additions to the document were gone. Repeated the work and continued adding to the project saving constantly. At end of day, I used Save As to make a version-02, opened it a saw that all was present and correct. Closed both versions 01 & 02 and reopened them and was relieved to see that both versions were fine. This morning, version-01 had returned to the state it was in when the problem first occurred and version-02 had disappeared from external SSD and two backups. I had a similar problem with AfPub v1 on an older Mac, but saving multiple versions of the file saved me. I see from previous posts that some users have trouble saving files, but this is different. Does anyone have any idea what’s going on? Leslie Q.
  4. The Picture Frame Tool properties should have a default of None. Or, please allow the user to choose a default, different to the present Scale to Max Fit. Keep up the good work. LesliePrint.
  5. Hello Affinity Publisher Team, I make art and photo books with 400+ pages. The best way, for me, to navigate in such an image rich document, is with the help of the pages panel on a separate monitor. APub has icon sizes 'Small, Medium, Large.' Please, make icons as large as InD’s 'Jumbo' size. Keep up the splendid work, Leslie.
