Sorry, it is not issue of Beta, but standard release 2.1.0. I will sent it to right section.

 

Hi @ID_eklp,
I have now been able to reproduce this here. I've found that actually it does do the update, but this isn't reflected until you switch to another tool and back again. I've reported this to our development team.
Thanks a lot

UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (Free for existing customers)
The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in Help > About Affinity Publisher).
If you’ve purchased from the Affinity Store— each time you start the Affinity Store software it will check for updates and offer any available update. The latest update will install over the top of any earlier version, with no need to uninstall. You can download the latest installer by logging into the affinity store here and find the order in your account and use the "Download" button in there. Alternatively, this new release (and previous versions of Affinity Publisher for Windows) can be downloaded from this link (that installer is NOT for Windows Store purchases and needs a product key).
If you’ve purchased from the Microsoft Store— Microsoft Store updates are done automatically by the operating system (each time you start the application). If this does not happen for you, open the Windows Store app and click the three dots in the top right corner of the app and then go to Downloads and Updates. Click Get Updates. This should hopefully force the update to show.

Hi jmnvro,
I also back the tourbox. They need to download the driver and tourbox console to make it work. Already set it up with Affinity Photo and work fine. I thought it was difficult before, but it only takes me 10 mins to configure. Share the dict to you. Wish it can help.

Hi all,
 
my name is Robert (aka Deadbyxmas!), I'm an illustrator, animator etc and by accident I bumped into Affinity Designer a couple of weeks ago (I was probably googling around for alternatives to Ai....don't we all), tried the demo (in between paid jobs...hmm) and then, once I had a better idea of its workflow, bought it and got cracking with a few sketches and ideas.
As usual I tend to explore new software by trial and accident, without tutorials and stuff, so probably I'm still overlooking a lot of its features - I noticed that every time I use it I find a better way around things etc. - but I thought I'd share with you some of my first experiments.
Actually I'm not sure what I can share or not here - there is a pic that is proving quite popular on another social site, but is slightly (veeeeeery slightly, I wouldn't even consider it so) risquè, so you tell me - I can direct you to the external link.
 
In the meantime here's my first (nearly) full illustratration done entirely in AD, included the texture masking.
 
best!

Ah, one piece I forgot to share. (I hate double posting, so I have to check everytime - if I do bear with me). 
A bit of a retro-thriller spoof.

Some more of the commercial stuff - website/blog/article etc icons. I did loads of these with this style, probably over 100, so really wouldn't know what to share, so picking very randomly 4 that are ready to go (as they were all used on the same webpage)

Four more
 
 

Hi Guys, 
I was browsing the forum, reading tips, previews etc. and then I remembered I had a thread here. 
Ahh, where to start - I have been using Designer solid for the last few years - with commercial, personal work etc. 
I will just start with some recent stuff, and slowly work my way back (or forward with newer). 
So I've been doing, amongst other stuff, a lot of editorial illustrations, so here are a few (I will spare you the topics of the articles, they're mainly business related, but at least I try to put a fun spin on them).
Here are 5, more soon

Started painting again after a long layoff.  My Wacom Intuos 3 large died after many years of service. Trying to get used to my new tablet a Huion Inspiroy Q11K V2.

Seems more than up to the Wacom and very pleased, works well with AP. Sketch a bit rough but then I'm rusty.
