  1. So I'm trying to crop a photo using Affinity designer and it's pretty much impossible to figure out. In Photoshop I grab the crop tool and crop so simple. With affinity I can't figure it out at all. I tried this tutorial but it's not working and is overly complicated for something that should be a simple task. How can I easily crop a photo with affinity designer?
  2. Hello everyone this is my first post. I sincerely hope it's the right place/section… I also made a search on forums but I'm not sure to find the answer to my problem.... So, I’m not a pro in graphics, but I use Affinity Designer for a while now; I use it both for prototype software GUIs, and for print projects. When I do a print project, usually is for an indie music label I collaborate with: I download the template PDF file from print company website, I open it in AD, and I work on it.. I export… etc. I already did this several times. Now, I’m working on a new music release, but it looks like now AD opens the PDF without showing the crop marks and bleed. I’m not talking here on how to set up/view bleed on export etc: I imported a PDF already coming with this, but AD shows just the page. This is new, cause for previous projects AD displayed the full area. Some screenshots to explain myself: - PDF file.png - the PDF as I want to see it in AD :) - PDF in AD in older projects.png - in my older projects, this PDF file opens in AD with all crops and bleed stuff - I can view/hide these in layers - PDF in AD now.png - crops and bleed layers are still here (selected layers), but the page is "smaller" Is something changed with an update? Or I'm missing something? Maybe something stupid :p How can I set up things in order to see the PDF as it was in "PDF in AD in older projects" screenshot? I use Affinity 1.8.3 on Mac. Thanks for your help!

  5. Using Affinity Publisher on Windows, my panels suddenly disappeared. I can only see the Master page that I had open at the moment. I am not able to go to any of the pages in my document. It is not only the pages panel that disappeared but all the panels on the right are also gone? How do I retrieve them? What did I do to cause them to disappear?

  7. I'd like to create a star similar to the star, Sirius. I followed along a youtube video on how to create Lens Flare in AP and then I applied what I learned to make it more star-like. I feel like I'm sort of getting there as far as what I want it to look like. But I don't have the experience yet to get this to look more realistic and am hoping the community can provide any other tips or tricks / short video on how I can get this looking more like the star, Sirius. My end goal is to have be able to export this for use on a website and a Figma project I'm working on. I'd also like to place the star on different backgrounds while maintaining the super hot white center (that I haven't mastered yet). I feel like I'm almost there but I can't seem to tweak this enough to make it more realistic and I feel like the cross part is missing glow but I can't seem to get inner or outer glow to work (or I'm just not doing it right). Thank you for taking a look and for any tips! I'm working on Macbook Pro. The first two screenshots are my work in AP. The 3rd screenshot, purple background, is what I would like to recreate and is my end goal.

  14. As stated by ELP: “Welcome back, My Friends / To the Show That Never Ends!” … and today’s Mystery Question may have a simpler resolution than I'm capable of imagining. To begin: To add a gradient, I usually create a new pixel layer, select the Gradient tool, drag out a gradient, edit it, and move to the next task. Occasionally, I've needed to return to edit the gradient and - so long as the Gradient tool was selected - the earlier gradient remained editable. But that was then … Now, once I depart the gradient layer and return later (with the Gradient tool active), the layer is only a gradient pixel layer, and uneditable as a gradient layer. If a new / edited gradient is to be had, it has to be created from scratch. Can someone please ’splain me what rezackly be’s happenin’ heah … ? Any editable gradients (FWIW) are usually elliptical in nature. Gradients which are linear are generally no longer editable once the layer is clicked off to move to a diff'rent one. All thoughts and inputs are welcomed and appreciated …

  22. Hello all! Currently working on some ID cards for work, and the printers have asked for a file with editable text. I have succeeded in making an editable PDF in Publisher, however when I reopen the file in Publisher to test it, when I go to replace the text (which the printers will do) the dimensions of the text box are not the same; any text that would go beyond the border, will automatically create a new line - instead of extending the text box. In the original file, the text box is spread to the margin line (48mmX2.7mm), however when re-opened the text boxes are shrunk to fit the text. I am assuming that the printers will use Photoshop or Illustrator, I was wondering if anyone could reassure me that my file will work the way I need it to in the Adobe softwares or if there's any way to fix the text dimensions so that they don't adjust? (Side note- I noticed Publisher can export into .PSD, if there's a way to keep the file editable while keeping the text boxes fixed then that would be absolutely lush). I hope this all makes sense, I can attach the file if people need to mess around with it. Thanks all - look forward to learning!
