Include Automatic Preview in Margin setting. 

Can't see the preview on page when adjusting the "Margin" and it also not working on clicking OK.

To see the changes made you must click the "Show Margin" again in the view menu. its so hard. 

hope you will adjust this.

I agree that there's no preview of the changed margin before you click OK. That should probably be posted in Feedback for Affinity Photo on Desktop (unless it does preview on MacOS, in which case having it here in the Bugs forum is appropriate). So we'll have to wait for comments from Serif or a Mac user to know where that belongs :)

For me, when I click OK on that dialog the margin settings adjust instantly. There's no need to click View > Show Margins to see the change. I'm puzzled why you need to do that, and why it doesn't automatically update for you.

Anyway the instant preview is a must have one.

I agree it would be nice (not must-have, for me). But if it behaves the same way on Mac (no instant preview) then it's a missing function, and needs a feature request, not a bug report. (In my opinion, of course.)

Hi both,

Sorry for the delayed reply. 

This is the standard behaviour for Margins on both platforms. They will update when you hit OK. 

However I don't see any issues (margins not updating unless turned off/on). Can you attach a screen recoding of that in action please?
