Add Pages Dialog Bug
cubesquareredux replied to Seneca's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Just FYI, this is not the only dialog that misbehaves. Previously I mentioned the Text Wrap dialog that has no "Cancel" option, but someone suggested that was OK because it's really a palette and not a dialog. -
Secondary Textbox Issues
cubesquareredux replied to Seneca's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Yes, I understand that part, but here we were talking about the program automatically continuing the story at the end of the document, on whatever page the end happens to be, not necessarily on the "several pages later" that you have in mind. Interesting point! Thanks, as always. -
Secondary Textbox Issues
cubesquareredux replied to Seneca's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
When would you want contents of a second text box created on page 1 to skip (say) fifty pages and continue on page 51? (I admit to being dim.) -
Text Wrap Issue
cubesquareredux replied to RenWaller's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Yes, wrap works again in ß 257. Thanks to the developers for restoring it. And yet the dialog should not allow mutually exclusive choices to be selected or highlighted simultaneously. If you play with the various options available, you may find that highlighting generally does not work as it should. But if the previous setting was not "None," then clicking on "None" is not the same as "Cancel." (There is, of course, "Undo.") -
Saving a "custom preset"

That works. Thanks. -
Text selection bug on beta .257

There is a group of tutorials published by Serif here: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/publisher/desktop/video/286534891 This group is accessible through a menu item in the program: Help > Tutorial… And then there are additional tutorials scattered elsewhere, such as here: https://affinityspotlight.com/article/affinity-publisher-public-beta-vs-170227-now-available-on-auto-update/?utm_source=SpotlightEmail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Newsletter This last one focuses on new master-page functionality, but if users rely on the menu item in the program when looking for tutorials, they will not find it. They will be led to the aforementioned group of tutorials, some of which may be out of date. So … is there an organized list of all available tutorials? (I also question the wording of the menu item text, but that's a minor thing.)

Text Wrap Issue
cubesquareredux replied to RenWaller's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Same thing happens with ß 257 on MacOS 10.13.6. And by the way, should the dialog box not have a "Cancel" option that undoes any change in dialog settings? -
Text selection bug on beta .257
cubesquareredux replied to osang's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Question 1: Does this happen only in documents newly created in Beta 257? Question 2: Are both of you seeing the problem only intermittently? Just FYI: Using Beta 257 on MacOS 10.13.6 I have not been able to replicate the problem in old documents or in new documents. -
I have about fifteen Publisher documents created with old betas. The newer betas provide greater master-page functionality than the old betas did. Is there an obviously sensible (and future-proof) way to convert my old documents to use the new functionality. Should I create a new "template" document and apply it to the content of each old document, one at a time? My documents are relatively short, no more than ten pages each. Thanks for any advice or suggestions.

Text on a Curve
cubesquareredux replied to WORTHYimage's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Glad to hear it. The OS is so complicated these days that perhaps no explanation will be forthcoming! -
Text on a Curve
cubesquareredux replied to WORTHYimage's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Yes, I see that now in your video clip, thanks – but, as I said, I don't have the same problem in either Publisher or Designer. -
Text on a Curve
cubesquareredux replied to WORTHYimage's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
The MacBook I'm using at this moment does not have a Backspace key but, in both Designer and Publisher, the Delete key works fine with "artistic text" on a curve. I'm using MacOS 10.13.6, Designer ß 1.7.0.4, and Publisher ß 1.7.0.249. -
Distance Measures Differ
cubesquareredux replied to thetasig's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Thanks for the video. What I see is your "centering distance measure" (in red) ending at 7.2 and then your "move distance measure" (in blue) going down from that 7.2 to 7.1 to 7. Obviously I am missing your point! -

Shortcut Print is not working
cubesquareredux replied to Gelbseidenraupe's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
On my Mac running 10.13.6 and Pubisher Beta 249, ⌘P invokes the "Print…" command as expected. Does printing work normally for you in other applications? -
Beta 249: Text Wrap?
cubesquareredux replied to cubesquareredux's topic in [ARCHIVE] Publisher beta on macOS threads
Thanks for confirming. I did a search for "wrap" before posting and thought it was incredible that nothing came up. I must have been doing something wrong.
