    This will not be part of Affinity Publisher 1.7 but there's lots of websites where you can generate an image, in any number of QR-code formats, for free. Then insert the image

    so the flip side to this is that - there are TONS of open source github repos with freely available code to generate QR codes in about every language you can imagine. Integrating this into an affinity product should be easy. Please considering adding barcode generation in one of the Affinity products soon.

  2. Own all products on Windows and - every time an update comes along I ALWAYS have issues. Usually end up having to nuke %AppData% folders, run as admin, restart a few times, etc.

    I would love to see the update process across all products on windows .... be better. Update the Update.

    1) store and remember my license state somewhere where I don't have to keep putting it in each time I nuke AppData.

    2) Automatic update checks are nice - but how about automated updates. Download the update, prompt me to apply the update, etc.

    3) When an update is coming - let me know about it in advance ... in App.

  3. I cant update or use my prior installs of photo or designer. %temp% files for both applications show

     

    +Error: The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\Affinity\Photo   (and for designer)

     

    I am running the installer as an admin (right click, run as admin)

    What other options do i have?

  4. update install failed. I've found a work around and possible issue. here is what I tried and it did not fix my issue.

    1) Moved the installer to the same drive.
    2) I am fully updated
    3) no other .net frameworks
    4) ran as admin
    5) restarted computer

     

    next I tried to check the log files for the install - but the folder 'Publisher Public Beta' was inaccessible. Said I didnt have the right permissions - however I was in powershell as Admin and the folder's size was 0. I re-ran the install and changed the folder name for the installation to 'Publisher Public Beta 2' .. and it worked.

    and

    We might well have a public beta for any new product (like Publisher), but we do not normally have public input before that. You could post something fantastic like this.

    If you want to say something make a fantastic post like this one

    my statement on the matter was finding these fantastic comments is difficult because there is no central location to house them all.

    That comment you linked is not really a comment its more of a blog post (its longer in length than most of the serif blog posts). Maybe 'affinity range' is good enough ... i dunno.

    A new category in the forums for any new product will appear when there is a new Affinity product to beta test, and not before. Thank you.

    how does one become involved in the exploratory processes for guiding the development of such a beta product ?

     

    EDITED
    just wanted to point out that this is most likely a rhetorical question to which there is no answer, not a good one at least. The point of the question is to re-enforce my prior suggestion ... a forum category, if a DAM is seriously being considered, should exist. Active discussion, polling, etc.

    'Something we MIGHT be doing in the future' ... to me .. is enough justification for such.
