irgi Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Disgusting works team tools “geometry” (add, subtract, intersect, xor, divide). In version 1.8.1 of these tools completely unworkable. How do i go back to the previous version of 1.7.3???? The program purchased in the App Store for Mac.

Dan C Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Hi irgi I'm very sorry to hear you're unhappy with the latest updates - unfortunately through the Mac App Store it's not possible to 'roll-back' to a previous version, as Apple does not allow this. You may be able to revert to a previous version using TimeMachine, but this is not something we directly recommend, my apologies. Quote
markw Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 I successfully rolled back to 1.7.3 yesterday using TimeMachine. The steps I used were… In the Applications folder I went back to the 1.7.3 version of Designer. Made a note of the date & time I went back to. Then hit Restore. Next I went to Designer’s “support” folder, for want of a better name for it. Depending on where Designer was purchased it will be found in one of two possible locations: Mac App Store version: /Users/user’s name/Library/Containers/com.seriflabs.affinitydesigner Or here: Serif Store version: /Users/user’s name/Library/Application Support/Affinity Designer I then Restored this folder from the same date & time as the actual app I just retrieved.Note; any new projects made in 1.8+ or old ones saved in 1.8+ will not be readable by the restored 1.7 version. And any new user content that may have been added whilst using the 1.8.+ versions will need to be re-added to the restored 1.7 version.

Unfortunately i don't use Time Machine for backup. i use a NAS with RAID to store work documents. Quote
