  1. In Publisher, how do I find out what styles are based on this style? For example, Base 1 was auto made sometime when I copied and pasted from another file. Before deleting it, I want to find out what other styles are using it as their base.
  2. 1. Select multiple rectangles of varying widths. 2. Click "Transform objects separately". 3. Type a new width in the Transform panel. 4. Watch how the objects are transformed proportionally instead of to the desired width. This is the same as not clicking "Transform objects separately."
  3. @carl123 Good suggestion, but nope. I tried it, but objects, groups, or mix of them on same layer or different layers, no difference. Behavior is totally random from what I experience. Sometimes it all works fine, but often it take 2 or 3 tries and/or me clicking somewhere else first. Something in the app or in Windows itself changed.
  4. In Publisher and Designer 2.5.7 I drag a selection marquee as usual, sometimes I get all my object and sometimes I don't. Sometimes I need to click somewhere else to "reset" it. Sometimes I need to redrag several times. I never had this random, unpredictable behavior before. I have always had "Edit all layers" turned on and keep checked Auto Select: Default. Perhaps this happened a bit in earlier versions, but I definitely notice it now. Aggravating!!!
  5. An additional observation supported by testing: A new document with facing pages works as expected. Many of my files work as expected. However, over time, something seems to happen to some files that break their ability to handle adding, moving, and deleting single pages. Note: In the middle of typing this comment, I was going to try moving single pages by removing the "facing pages" property from my document then moving, but text frames from the left page were moved to the background/pasteboard instead of staying on pages!!
  6. I'm still running into this with 2.5.5. Sometimes it won't let me move a single page, but I can move a spread, which might cause the moved spread to become a layer on top of the destination instead of pushing it out of the way.
  7. When is this going to be fixed? It still does not work for me 2.5.5.
  8. In any given text style the user font size does not match the reported size at the bottom. If I change the user size, the bottom panel matches, but then later becomes incorrect again.
  9. Title says it all, even when I use the menu "Check for updates." The two other apps updated as normal. This update fail has been going on for weeks.
  10. Currently there is small, medium, and large, but humongous would be nice, about twice the size of large. I would then be able to make the Pages window almost fill the screen and move pages around my textbook by being able to read the titles.
  11. I keep losing my pinned files also. It happens across all three Windows 11 apps.
  12. I see what the problem is now causing unpredictability even though Scroll With View is checked. If the Pages studio tab is not visible, then syncing does not occur until it becomes visible and a navigation occurs. I put Pages and Text Styles in the same studio on the left, so I am back and forth while also navigating.
  13. Thank you for the tip! I had not seen that before, but mine was already checked. I tested it several ways and scrolling happened properly...AFTER I restarted the app. I should have thought of that possibility before... My best explanation is that after a while, (perhaps putting the computer to sleep for the night?) Affinity apps act sluggish like their memory is fragged. That is just my guess, because Task Manager shows memory and drive usage is low and availability is high. I restart and things get better, the sun shines, the birds sing,...!!!
