Perspective grid
HenrikM replied to Olivier Bujold's topic in Feedback for Affinity Designer V1 on iPad
We really need a perspective grid in the Affinity products. My current procedure for creating a grid in Affinity Designer: Create a perspective grid in Procreate. Take a screenshot. Use Google Drive to copy the screenshot to my laptop. Use the grid in Affinity Designer. That is, I need to use both my iPad and my laptop, and THREE applications (Procreate, Screenshot, Google Drive app) to create a somewhat usable grid in Affinity Designer. Oh, and I need a network connection. It is ridiculously overcomplicated. Affinity does support a bunch of edge cases for grids, but except for a basic square grid, not the most usable grids. -

Affinity Publisher 2.5.0 Locks Book File Chapters
HenrikM replied to HenrikM's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
Publisher creates a lock file when I open the document. It does not remove the lock file when I close the document. However, removing the lock file manually makes no difference. -
Affinity Publisher 2.5.0 Locks Book File Chapters
HenrikM replied to HenrikM's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
Since the message I get when I open the chaper file says "The selection is locked...", I tried unlocking all layers. It does not work. -

Affinity Publisher 2.5.0 Locks Book File Chapters
HenrikM posted a topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
When I open a book file, and then click on a chapter in the book file, the first file I tried to open does open, but it is locked and cannot be edited. Same thing with the second file I tried. I have also tried opening the same file directly, but it remains locked. Closing the chapter file makes Affinity Publisher freeze. The third or fourth time I tried open the chapter file by clicking on it in the book file, I got a message that AP is updating page numbers, then the program froze. -

Cross References
HenrikM replied to Ash's topic in [ARCHIVE] 2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.2 & 2.1 Features and Improvements
Cross-references is the feature I have been waiting for. Will it be possible to set up cross-reference formats, so that you can have a cross reference that also generates prefix, infix and postfix text? In other words, can you create a cross reference that looks like this: See Section 3.2 Task-Switching Penalties on page 47. ...or, are the references limited to just page numbers? Will it be possible to automatically format cross-references differently depending on output format? For example: PDF for print: See Section 3.2 Task-Switching Penalties on page 47. eBook/HTML: See 3.2 Task-Switching Penalties.- 66 replies

Linked layers have reduced quality when exporting a picture
HenrikM replied to HenrikM's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
I'll see if I can replicate it the next time I work on a picture. If I can, I'll send you a file sample and export settings. I do not believe it is the export settings though, because it was possible to see the overly large pixels of the linked layer when I had the file open in Affinity Photo. -
Linked layers have significantly reduced quality when exported. See the picture: To the left, the model is on a linked layer. To the right, the model has been embedded in the main file. I can sometimes force an update by opening the linked file at the same time as I have the main file open, but that only increases the quality a bit. I do not get the full image quality. I am running Photo v2.0.0 on Windows 11. I use Google Drive, but all files are stored locally on the hard drive.

Where is the Affinity 2 executable file?
HenrikM replied to hotflyer882's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
I have the same problem with DXO Photolab. I know Serif moved the files to the Windows 11 starting location. That location isn't available even as an administrator. Changing access rights so DXO can start Affinity does not work. This really needs to be fixed. -

Cross reference support
HenrikM replied to The Wook's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
I think they have changed the name in the drop-down menu, but it is still in the documentation. What they are describing here is not a cross-reference. -
Footnotes/Endnotes
HenrikM replied to garrettm30's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Yes, Affinity Publisher is definitely lacking in book publishing features. The lack of footnotes, endnotes, and cross-references, are the worst omissions, but the more I work with the software, the more problems I find. Still, I do not know of any reasonably priced alternative. I do not want to rent Adobe products, and that makes Affinity Publisher the only game in town. On the other hand, with a bit of luck, Serif is working on fixing the current shortcomings. I hope they do it before I finish my book. 🙂 -
Cross reference support
HenrikM replied to The Wook's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
You are probably correct. What has me a bit worried is that they implemented hyperlink functionality suitable for eBooks, but not any sort of eBook export, and then named their hyperlinks "cross-references". Serif usually plan the functionality in their applications very well, but this time I am not so sure they are doing that. -
Cross reference support
HenrikM replied to The Wook's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
Back in the day when I was a software developer, I designed and built a cross-reference system for XMetaL. It's not that difficult. Serif does not have to work out everything from scratch. They can borrow ideas from systems that work, like the FrameMaker cross-references, LaTex, Basser Lout, DocBook, XLink, or even Word. -
Cross reference support
HenrikM replied to The Wook's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
I'm working on a book on photography, and the lack of cross-references is becoming a larger and larger problem the further I get. I'm hoping we'll get it in the next release. Preferably something at least as powerful and flexible as you get with FrameMaker. -
Footnotes/Endnotes
HenrikM replied to garrettm30's topic in Feedback for Affinity Publisher V1 on Desktop
I am working on a book on photography. The lack of footnotes and endnotes in Affinity Publisher is getting to be a severe obstacle. I keep hoping for that being added in the next version.
