Lighting bugs

[TEcHNOpls 86]

1. Add a lighting layer

2. Select spot point type

3. Try moving distance with mouse wheel, you ca see it goes 1-2-3-2-1

4. Go to 1%

5. Try holding ctrl key while moving the mouse wheel (recently found out this is decimal modifier). You can see the size changes, but the value stays at 1.

 

Also, tint slider doe not work in this setup for light colour.

I can't replicate that. However using the CTL key does nothing, but the Shift key is a modifier by 10.

Sorry, just realized I made an error in the description. You need "point" not "spot".

Percentage settings are not adjustable with the ctrl key for decimals.
May be intentional but may be a bug?
Shift key for tens are working in all including percentage

[TEcHNOpls 86]

I double checked and with point source it bugs out like described.

[haakoo 530]

Checked this in the release version it doesn't work there either.
Will make a bug report

I'm seeing a slight change too. I will pass it to the developers. Thanks, everyone.

Just download the v1.8 beta and be happy with that...

V1.8 on Windows pretty stable and nice on Windows, but, we eagerly awaiting 1.8 beta versions for Mac and iPad...

A realistic timeline for retail v1.8 may be four to six month away, certainly it will be the same time we see Affinity Publisher on iPad...

Source or guess?

As you already know, a guess

But, my hope is that we see a retail version of Affinity Publisher for iPad mid 2020...

I can though understand that the stand alone version of Publisher is not the big software develop challenge, it must be Studio Link technology on iPadOS itself...

Perhaps Serif should go for a stand alone version of iPad-Publisher first, without Studio Link, and then have time to build an amazing and efficient Studio Link on the iPadOS...

If we look at Affinity Designer on iPad, and open Publisher documents from Win/Mac platform, we can see that a lot of the Publisher technology is there under the hood (my personal guess)...
