What happened to the 'persona' link icons? All three persona links are there in Publisher but are not showing in Photo & Designer. There are other persona links in both Photo and Designer but have to access others through the drop down menu. If I open a document in Publisher I have easy access to both photo and designer and can flip backwards and forwards very easily  between all three - am I missing something?

There is no Studio Link in Photo or Designer only in Publisher.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Arguably, the term "Persona" isn't used consistently across the Affinity suite - in AP and AD you're accessing different functions of the same program, while in APub you're accessing different programs via Studiolink.

In Help - "Think of Personas as different ways of working within your application." Using Personas, certain functions/features are made available to the user.
It doesn't matter how these specific features/functions are made available.

I did start by saying it was arguable 😄

Actually, you're not. The Photo and Designer Personas in Publisher access code from Photo and Designer that is embedded within Publisher, not the code from the external Photo and Designer programs. So it is exactly the same meaning of Persona as in the other applications.

Good grief!!  Thanks for that - I'd always believed Apub was opening the other programs (despite the evidence to the contrary)!
