Using the [file] > [export] option from the vector persona. I selected 12 artboards seeking to publish a 12-page pdf. My file has never been exported. Even left it overnight.

I'm fairly new to Affinity Designer. Like most people, I come from the Adobe world. Soon after starting with AD I started to miss the free transform tool found in the competitor's software. I found an old thread in which for over five years people were demanding a free transform tool to be included in Designer. Then with the introduction of v2, those demands seemed to have been answered, in form of the Warp Group feature. The Warp Group is a really cool and powerful feature which, on the surface, seems to do the task of the free transform tool. I did notice some unexpected behaviour with it though. The warp tool curves straight lines when it shouldn't. The image below best illustrates my issue with the tool. In the example I'm warping a simple triangle (with straight sides and sharp nodes) with the Quad Warp tool. I'm expecting the warp tool to keep the sides of the triangle straight. Instead it curves them. To me, this is not the expected behaviour, nor is it how the free transform in other software work and I think it should be fixed. With the Perspective Warp the effect isn't as strong, but it can still be seen (image below). For comparison, the image below shows the free transform behaviour in both Photoshop and Illustrator. So I ask: why should Affinity Designer's Warp behaviour be any different? So far I've really enjoyed exploring AD and its features, but little discrepancies like this in the tools are quite frustrating to me.

Greetings all, I have a document in Photo v2 that has a model holding a credit card. The card is an embedded Designer v2 document of the card artwork. When I save the document, load up Designer and make changes to the card design and save it, shouldnt the changes be reflected in the Photo document when I reload it? This isnt happening.. when I reload the photo file with the model, she's still holding the old card design.

Hi! I can see the bleed margins, but i can't see the content when i'm trying to edit it. I only see the bleed content in the pdf. Is there any way i can see the bleed content? Thank you.

Hello everyone, I'm struggling on a designe project. I want to create some shining light/lighting effect on designer or photo. I just mind if someone here have achieved that before. Back to illustrator I knew how to do that but I'm a bit lost with the same when I try with ADesigner. To escape too much technics I downloaded eps files from freepiks but none seems to work as I want, so back to the beginning. Don,t want to use already created stuff, possible to get help from here? Thanks!

Hello everybody Sorry to open this new thread, maybe it was already asked in another one but your ideas may help a lot. Case: a team of 3 peoples, a designer making all vector and illustration work, a second designer doing all photo works (everything related to photo) then the last one to be the Project Manager/Overseer who actuality should actually correct, control etc the work (in progress) Questions: 1- What solution do you think Serif should implement that will empower or help creative team to make amazing jobs using affinity? 2- How would you solve that with the actual release of Affinity? Important: i'm talking here about something close to real time collaboration with multiuser file access in a LAN or over an Internet location/cloud storage for those with super Internet speed.
