Below: Word document tracked change example Below: InDesign document tracked pasted example (matches visible copy in Word) Below: Publisher document tracked pasted example (includes all the 'deleted' copy from Word) I have recently hit a new problem in my transition of workflows to Publisher that when using a tracked changes Microsoft Word document to cut and paste amends to Publisher (and Designer) it seems to bring all the detritus of the tracked changes with the word clipboard, therefore including all the deleted content that should be ignored. After working this way for many years in InDesign this has caused a couple of embarrassing slip ups - not so much in native English but in translated docs such as the example included. So where is the problem and is there a cure? Content pasted into InDesign appears as the corrected text in Word - obviously the desired effect, but as far as I can tell an automatic scenario and not a preference in either InD or Word. Certainly I can find no preference or pasting method in Publisher that offers a solution. Yes I can Review and accept all changes in Word before cutting and pasting, but then I lose all indication of where the changes are/were in the Word doc, so need to have 2 word documents open to flick between. If I'm missing a trick please let me know. If not, this is a problematic issue/bug in a regular workflow.

How do you place element on the cavas for use on other pages? In my other publisher program I can drag a copy out onto the canvas, then change to another pages and reinsert it. Or I can drop in a bunch of photos onto the canvas and then insert them on different pages. In other words, the element stays on the canvas between page changes. A feature I use a lot when planning book pages. Can't find it in APub??

I am still new to the Affinity suite having previously known PS pretty well. I have images (photos) to which I have made adjustments in Affinity Photo. I want to use those images in Affinity Designer. When I cut and paste or drag and drop the image into an existing Affinity Designer document, Affinity Designer crashes. It does it every time. I have tried with layers and having merged the layers, I have tried having rasterised the image but the same result - Designer just crashes. I am sure this worked earlier today. Can anyone help please - what am I doing wrong?

We need a simple cut and paste as in MGI photo suit back in 2000. where you can put two images and duplicate images in the same or 2 windows and cut bit out, insert or paste them, reverse turn shape ,fade or what ever and then when final, it can be placed or blended in, on the Origional or the other, its perfect for re building old photos and so fat but you cannot get it to day, And a simple coo large tool where you can take a sick of photos from a file , drag then in, drag them of and place any where on the canvas or frame. re size or turn as you can in I web, Instead of having to use I web, Please Thank you

I am just starting to learn the basic of the software and have gone through 70% of the on-line tutorials. I have a question regarding the cut and past feature. I am able to do everything however when the image appears in the new document or photo it can not be resized or re-positioned. It appears exactly where it was in the initial image and does not include the circles and lines which allow you to change. I must be doing something incorrectly. Thanks
