Madame Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Hi. If you go to View>Studio tick the layers panel. Quote - Affinity Photo 2.3.0 - Affinity Designer 2.3.0 -Affinity Publisher 2.3.0 MacBook Pro 16 GB MacOS Sonoma 14.1.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbaucells Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Point 1: I have this enabled but still cannot see a layers panel except in Export Persona (how on earth do I edit on a particular layer if I can't jump to it?!) Point 2: An Illustrator-created PDF file imported to Affinity Designer only shows the bleeds/printer's marks layer and not the actual design layers. How do I make this visible?

Staff DWright Posted January 26, 2016 Staff Share Posted January 26, 2016 Hi tbaucells, The Studio may be hidden press the ⇧+⌘+ H keys to toggle the panel. Can you send me a copy of the Pdf for me to look into. Regards, Darren tbaucells 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbaucells Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 As suggested by whomever is manning your Twitter account (@AffinityBySerif ) today, I reset Studio via View>Studio>Reset and the Layers panel magically reappeared (I do wish there was a simple interface button for layers!). This allowed me to see that the layer containing the actual design was deactivated (unticked) and thus invisible. This is probably caused by some nasty shenanigans during Illustrator PDF export. I have been to-ing and fro-ing all morning with my printers because they insisted they couldn't see the design, that my file was blank save the printing marks. When I described my Affinity situation (deactivated layer), and made the innocent suggestion that they might be having a similar problem, I received an email within five minutes requesting my final approval of the order :unsure: . No admitting anything nor apologies, mind you. So I imagine you won't needing the file? If you want it anyway to see where the hitch was, to where do I send it?

Staff DWright Posted January 27, 2016 Staff Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hi Tracy, I am glad the reset got your panels back, you can e-mail me the PDF to affinity@serif.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
