Dilly Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Hey Guys, I am pretty much a Noob in Affinity, so I don't know if this question is a bit unusual. Right now im working on a Textlayout (I know publisher would be the right tool) and i can't get a neat Layout with good Hyphenation - or Hyphenation at all. Single Words always jump the whole row instead of being "cut". Im not a native english speaker, so i hope i made myself clear :) Anyway...thanks in advance guys. Johannes Quote
Joachim_L Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Welcome to the Affinity forums @Dilly! Hyphenation is a much requested feature in AD. The only two workarounds are a) do the hyphenation in AD yourself b) if you own APu as well, Edit in Publisher, enable hyphenation and Edit in Designer again.

Clayton King Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 Unless I'm missing something, Designer seems to have an autohyphenation feature. I say this because I've spent an hour looking for a way to turn it off! Does anyone know where to get at this? Quote

That document (or at least that text style) must have come from Publisher or some other application that includes auto-hyphenation. What you can do, though, is edit the Text Style, and in the Languages section you can set the Hyphenation Language to None.

You cannot disable hyphenation in Designer. You can do what Walt suggested and set Character > Language to None. Or you can create a new paragraph style (not based on the current one) and apply that instead. Or you can edit the document in Publisher where you can disable hyphenation.
