MikeA Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Publisher displays incorrect preset name in File > Spread Setup. To replicate: First test Create a preset using the settings shown in screen shot "MagCloud-preset.jpg." In my tests I'm using these settings for a preset I've named "MagCloud 8 x 8 CMYK". Link to screen shot "MagCloud-preset.jpg" (forum won't allow me to embed screen shots in posts):https://drive.google.com/open?id=1sUCBBb30Bh-qaQPKOD0dkqT9U5YjKcXP With "MagCloud 8 x 8 CMYK" selected, now alter its color space and color profile. Change only those settings, to "RGB/8" and "sRGB," respectively. The name changes at the upper right of the New Document dialog to "Custom." Click the "+" button to create a preset by that name. Change the name of new preset "Custom" to "MagCloud 8 x 8 RGB". Create a document based on "MagCloud 8 x 8 RGB". Unexpected result occurs — repeatable: In the new document, File > Spread Setup shows the preset as "MagCloud 8 x 8 CMYK" even though preset "MagCloud 8 x 8 RGB" was used to create that document. Second test Close new document and run File > New. Select the "MagCloud 8 x 8 RGB" preset. Change the page size to 8.01 x 8.01. The name in the upper right of the dialog now changes to "Custom". Leave the name that way and click "Create." Expected result occurs — repeatable: In the new document, File > Spread Setup shows the preset as "Custom". Third test Close the new document and run File > New. Select the new "Custom" preset and change the page size back to 8 inches x 8 inches, exactly. The name in the upper right of the dialog remains "Custom". Leave the name that way and click "Create". Unexpected result occurs — repeatable: In the new document, File > Spread Setup now again shows the preset as "MagCloud 8 x 8 CMYK" — not "Custom". Fourth test Close new document and run File > New. Select "MagCloud 8 x 8 RGB" preset. Ensure the page size is still 8" x 8". Change the margin settings from 0.125 inch to 0.126 inch. Preset name in the dialog changes to "Custom". Create a new document based on "Custom". Expected result occurs: In File > Spread Setup the preset name is shown as "Custom". Fifth test Close the new document and run File > New. Select preset "Custom" and change its margin settings back to 0.125 inch. (Page size should still be 8" x 8".) Leave the name "Custom" as-is and click "Create." Unexpected result here — repeatable: In the new document, File > Spread Setup now again shows the preset as "MagCloud 8 x 8 CMYK" (not "Custom"). Quote Affinity Publisher and Photo 1.8.3 (Windows).
