Well no worries, seven hours later and they have all returned! It’s magic!! Whooo hoooo!

I just purchased the Black Friday deal and I am no longer on the trial version. I am using an iPad Pro. i have used the trial version a lot as I have dropped illustrator. I had many documents in the start up screen. ‘Like an newbie (that I am not) I did not back up those files. My understanding was on my iPad they would automatically save. When I signed in under the upgrade, all of my documents went missing. I looked in the affinity designer folder in the cloud and they aren’t there. I am talking hours worth of work that are gone!! can anyone give me tips on finding them? I have not upgraded my laptop yet and I am hoping they might be there as the two were synced.

I got it! It has to be ungrouped first....it is pretty messy but that can be cleaned up! Now to get the offset path in Affinity figured out!

Yes, here it is. As you can see from the file, I merged the shapes with no problem. If you look back in the history you can see that I converted to curves, then did add. It might not be in that state currently. type merged.afdesign

I am trying to accomplish something I do in Illo all the time but can’t seem to do in affinity. i like to convert my type to paths, and then merge the shapes. in Affinity I have converted the text to curves and then used the add command but it still won’t merge. See image for the overlap not going away. its almost as if I am missing a step after I convert the type to curves. Anyone have the answer?

Thank you so much! What a great reference! This is fantastic!

Perfect! Not sure if Place Image is the same as Import/Open (assuming so) but that worked! Thank you so much! This really is an amazing app. schwabby

I am trying to make the switch from the laptop to my iPad Pro. All of my files are in Box.com. Is there a way to import a file or image from Box.com to affinity? thanks!
