DesignSurge Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I tend to use separated mode with all Affinity products as I like to take full advantage of 2 screens when working and move things around quite a lot, I couldn't find the preflight panel until I switched Separated Mode off, then it is available. thomaso 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so there's that. I also was looking for it. Never thought, it would be omitted in separated mode, as it's the ONLY mode I use...

Thanks for discovering and reporting that difference. I only had noticed the lack of the preflight panel:https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/103883-preflight-panel/&do=findComment&comment=559074 'Separated Mode' (and in particular two monitors) still appear less supported in Affinity. Feels a little like discrimination of disabled users - whereas the disability here is the existence of a second screen, like a third eye macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johannes Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Seperated Mode seems to be less tested over all. woefi 1 Advertising designer - Austria — Photo - Publisher - Designer — CS6 d&wP — Mac Pro 5,1 (4,1 2009) 48GB 2x X5690 - RX580 - 970EVO - OS X 10.14.6 - NEC2690wuxi2 - CD20"— iPad Pro 12.9" gen1 128 GB - Pencil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted January 21, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 21, 2020 We have made fixes/improvements to this area (Preflight panel missing in separated mode) of the program in the latest customer beta. If you would like to try these changes the beta software is available in the forum posts listed below. The latest beta builds are downloadable from links at the top of each of these beta forum posts. Affinity Publisher 1.8.0.535 for Mac These betas install parallel, next to the release version (they do not overwrite your release) and so the fixes can be tried in the beta without affecting your normal workflow in the release version. Once these programs have been through a full beta process the change will be released in a future free 1.8.0 update/patch to all customers.
