@walt.farrell When I type: The man said: "Watch out!", autocorrect inserts lower opening apostrophes and upper closing apostrophes.
In Dutch language opening and closing apostrophes are both of type upper.
Is there a way to setup autocorrect such that it inserts user defined opening and closing quotes? -
I take that back.
I decided to regenerate the TOC as well as the PDF and the hyperlinks did materialise in all the PDF-viewers I've got.
Possibly, something had gone bad while fiddling with the TOC I generated earlier. -
I'm using 1.8.3 and I have generated a nice TOC, which shows the right page numbers.
But when I export the document to PDF (digital, high quality) with the option include hyperlinks enabled, the resulting PDF does not show TOC hyperlinks in Acrobat Reader DC, PDF-XChange Editor or the browsers Edge or Vivaldi.Did I miss some other option or should I add the hyperlinks manually?

New downloads NOT to the NAS, but the local drive solved the issue. Both installations went along just fine.

extracting the .msi resulted in checksum errors. Need to download again.

Both Designer and Publisher cannot complete their installation procedure on my PC.
I've uploaded log files to Mark Ingram's Dropbox.My PC hs been out of use for more than half a year, so when I was able to start it up again today, a lto of updating was to be done.
Windows 10 (Home) is up to 1903.The installation process for Designer (1.7.1.404) appears to be going well, but after some time it stops with a meager message "Installation failed".
The same experience with Publisher (1.7.1.404), which was not installed on this PC beforeIs there some cleaning that I can do clear my PC from any Affinity remnants?

@MEB Thank you! I didn't even realise.

Trimmed version is doing fine.
I think I've got it.
Thanks, all. -

Its not very well done actually, the ends don't line up.
Right. I guess I need to look further.
Meanwhile I've run into this piece of rope that does a pretty good job when turned into a brush.
But it doesn't do well taking sharp bends. Possibly because of its relative length.
Maybe I should try and trim it? -
I'm quite new to Affinity Designer and also new to the concept of brushes in giving line drawings a 'pattern'.
I need to draw a curvy piece of rope and I think (but I'm not sure) that creating a vector brush is the way to go.
I've found this rope piece (SVG) on the internet and I am wondering how I should turn this into a brush that I can use for my drawing.
Is it possible to create a brush from vector parts or does it HAVE to be based upon a bitmap as demonstrated in a couple of video's?

Got that too, using the text ruler.
But, I had to make the same settings thrice.
Surely there would have been an easier way to do this?
Is there a 'paste layout' like MS Word's [ctrl][shift][v] ? -
So, I need to define a new paragraph style "Bullet list"...
Got it. Thanks.

While experimenting with the Publisher Beta, I can't seem to get my bullet lists right.
The bullets are not indented and the list items are not tabbed.How do I configure bullet lists?

Those first words came as a shock to me thinking I'd purchased the wrong tool, but then I started watching the Artboards tutorial videos.
I think that Artboards will do nicely.Thank you

I'm new to Designer and I can't seem to find the option to create multiple pages in a document.
Can anyone give me a hint?

There is no Dutch language spelling checking, so I left it at default English.
Is there a way to create one's own spelling checking configuration?
I could start with setting the desired typographic quotation marks and add common typo's as I go.
