Charles Osei-Wusu Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 I started using Affinity Publisher about a week ago and I am not able to apply object style in a project i am working on. I switch from Adode to Affinity this month. Can anybody assist me. I REALLY LOVE AFFINITY PRODUCTS Quote
walt.farrell Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, Charles. More details, please. What are you trying to apply an object style to, and how are you trying to do it? Any screenshots, or a sample .afpub file available?

Charles Osei-Wusu Posted April 27, 2020 Author Posted April 27, 2020 Thank you. Please i want apply a colour to a shape which i might be edited in the future. The shape will be repeated some few times but it is not on a master page. Quote
walt.farrell Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 So, it sounds like you might want a global color, if I understand correctly that you want to be able to change that color in the future and affect several other shapes. But I don't think you can use a global color with an object style. Another approach might be to make the shape a Symbol, and then changing the color of any of the copies would change all of them. But Symbols are not supported in the Publisher Persona of Publisher. You would also need to own the Designer product so you could use the Designer Persona in Publisher to create the symbols. Perhaps someone else will have some thoughts that will lead to a solution, or further questions for you Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Charles Osei-Wusu Posted April 27, 2020 Author Posted April 27, 2020 I tried creating a symbol from Designer Persona but it still did not work. I had to still change the colours manually once I come back to Publisher Persona. May it is something Serif can work on the future. I'M IN LOVE WITH AFINITY ALREADY. I SEE A FUTURE OF LIMITLESS POSIBILITIES WITH AFFINITY Quote
