peterpica Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 What good is the new beta if it doesn't work with photo & designer? What am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Do you have the Photo and Designer betas installed? Or are you wanting to use the retail versions of Photo and Designer? if the latter then I don't know if you can, I have the betas installed and the Publisher beta calls them up when I choose Edit in Photo or Edit in Designer. Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterpica Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Hate to be stupid, at 77+ it's quite easy nowadays. How do you get the betas for Photo & Designer? I purchased these via the google store, but bought Publisher direct. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, you can download the beta versions of any of the Affinity applications you own from the beta forums here. Generally the latest beta is available from a topic at the top of the relevant forum. Or, for Mac, you can find the information about which betas are available in the newest post in this topic.
