  1. Nope... before I replied (below) I checked with a new document and it worked. Now that I've opened an existing one I have to report that it's still the same: all handles are gone, selected text isn't recognisable as such. Changing tools doesn't do anything. Bummer. As it is, Publisher is utterly useless to me. My hero! Thanks. Surprisingly keeping software up to date does help sometimes...
  2. I guess it's the same problem: all handles disappear and sometimes, with luck, reappear. Changing tools doesn't fix it. As you can see in the screenshot (actually you can't see it) the text in the last text box is selected. Publisher 2.2.0 on MacBook Pro M2 running Sonoma 14.1
  3. I don't seem to understand file sizes: initially I started working with a 1774 x 2782 px, 72 DPI, sRGB file, with transparent background, three pixel and one vector layer, "Save history" not checked. The images in the pixel layers are all embeded, rasterized and trimmed. Curious why the file took so long to save to iCloud I to Finder and was surprised to see that it's 198 MB. I checked everything again, saved a copy and started deleting one layer after another, saving after each step. Once the file was completely empty its size was still 117 MB. Even stranger: opening the original 198 MB file and saving a copy of it without any changes results in the copy being 153 MB. MacBook Pro M2 Ventura 13.5.1 Affinity Photo 2.1.1
  4. Hello Paul, with the iPad‘s onscreen keyboard there aren‘t any issues with those characters. It‘s only with external (Logitech case with keyboard, MacBook Pro) that Ä and Ö won‘t work - it‘s only the caps, too, and strangely enough Ü works perfectly fine.
  5. Hey Callum. small update: curiously enough a restart of the iPad didn’t change a thing. No Ä & Ö. R.
  6. Hey Callum, thanks for the quick reply. I don’t want to make this bigger than it ist - it’s just odd. To answer your question: I’ve just linked a MacBook Pro to the iPad and used its trackpad and keyboard. The issue persisted: small äs and ös, no caps tho. I would hazard the prediction that a restart of the iPad will resolve the issue. At the moment I just can’t interrupt work - and I figured it’s an oddity that could be interesting for the developers. Cheers, Ralf
  7. Odd: Designer 2 (actually Photo and Publisher as well) won’t let me type the capital versions of the umlauts Ä and Ö with my Logitech Combotouch keyboard anymore. Ü still works as well as copy&paste from other apps and the iPadOS keyboard. Designer 1 isn’t struggling and produces Äs and Ös to my heart’s content. And just to be sure: it’s not a font issue. iPad Pro, 3rd generation iPadOS 16.5.1 (c) Affinity Designer 2.1.1.1847
  8. Hey Dan, thanks a lot. My mission now is to not use comand-w… which is serious task but should be doable.
  9. Designer V2 (2.0.4.5) iPad Pro (12,9”, 3. Generation) iPadOS 16.4.1 It’s exactly what the title says… To recreate the issue follow these steps: 1. Open a new document (size doesn’t really matter) 2. Create a simple shape, e.g. a rectangle 3. Export as PDF (PDF for print presets) (“Rect.pdf”) 4. Open another new document (“Test”) 5. Place and position “Rect.pdf” 6. Double click the shape (in this case the rectangle). A new window should open where you can edit Rect.pdf’s content. 7. Return to “Test”, in my case since I am using a keyboard by hitting command-w 8. “Test” is dead: the file can’t be opened nor saved. This is particularly unnerving after having spent several hours working on a project. “You should’ve saved the project outside of Designer” is probably good advice, however I kinda expect the application not to kill my projects if I act on its invitation to work conveniently inside the app’s environment.
  10. 1Hey DM1, sorry for not answering in a more timely fashion. It appears as if this has been resolved in Version 2.0.4.1701. However, there’s the side note: “Side note: double clicking the eps in layers opens the original eps. After once closing the document with command-w (just because I am so used to do so) the whole project became impossible to open.“ The exact same issue just killed a project in Designer V2 after I had placed a PDF, double-clicked to edit it and hit command-w.
  11. Since yet another bug appears to halt my workflow I’ve decided to re-write and update this post. It’s all within the Developer persona in Photo 2 on an iPad Pro (3rd generation) running iPadOS 16.2 1. Crop-Crash Import a photo (RAW or JPEG doesn’t make a difference) to Photo 2, change to the Developer persona, crop & double tap/click > crash. Reliably, every time. Workaround: crop in the old version of Photo > save > import into Photo 2 2. White Balance Crash Same approach as before, toggle the white balance button, click the refresh (?) symbol to the left of it > crash The beauty of those two issues is that of course they take everything that you might have done so far with them unless you bothered to save after every successful step.
  12. Kinda solved: copy&paste text didn’t have the “right” line breaks.
  13. I am not entirely sure it’s a bug or if I haven’t found the right way yet. As it is right now, I am working with a short text consisting of three paragraphs and I sure would like the text to be justified with the last lines in each paragraph aligned left. Unfortunately, Publisher does exactly what the button suggests: It brutally justifies the hell out of those last lines in the first two paragraphs and only aligns the last line left. So far I haven’t found a workaround except for adding a new text-frame for each paragraph - which is totally doable as long as it’s only three but with a larger project this seems slightly impractical.
  14. An eps placed on top of an image keeps disappearing every time I try to select it. It pretends to be “back” when I close and re-open the app but disappears from the design as soon as I select it, however it remains visible in the page thumbnail. In the resource manager clicking on the eps’ arrow for (I assume) details crashes the app. While trying to figure out what the hell is going on I found out I can’t toggle visibility of anything anymore. Hiding the background image only changes the layer’s thumbnail. Toggling preview mode doesn’t do anything. Side note: double clicking the eps in layers opens the original eps. After once closing the document with command-w (just because I am so used to do so) the whole project became impossible to open.
