Having spent a lot of time customising the interface and keyboard shortcuts for Affinity Photo and Designer, I don't want to redo all this work in Publisher. Instead, I would love to see Publisher synchronise the settings from both apps (this should be a checkbox within the keyboard shortcut interface so people can opt not to), thus loading in studio presets and keyboard shortcuts. Synchronising keyboard shortcuts and the like also circumvents discrepancies between the apps where, if I modify a few hotkeys, I have to take into account that this also needs to be changed the other app.

Would be nice if I could switch not only studio panels but tools also with studio presets.

I love this new feature in 1.9. However, one quick option I would love to have is the option to quickly select the preset in the bar (similar to what Adobe InDesign has). This can be optional based on user preference. I used this option in InDesign based off the feature I was doing when I worked on magazines. It was convenient for one setting to create ads, one for layouts and one for the final output for the magazine. I would LOVE to see this feature and don't think it would be too difficult to incorporate in a future update (non-major update). I would use this feature fairly often, but not often enough to justify creating a keyboard shortcut. I am still using Adobe for some things I need to do in my work environment but Affinity is getting VERY close to me making the complete move over to Affinity. Please see screenshot of the InDesign version of what I am referencing...
