Affinity Designer for macOS - 1.10.5

[Patrick Connor]

We are pleased to announce an update for the MacOS release of Affinity Designer, to version 1.10.5

The detailed changes in Affinity Designer for MacOS 1.10.5 over the release build Affinity Designer for macOS 1.10.4 are as follows:

Fixes & Improvements:

• Fixed possible registration failures (will now use the browser to complete registration, rather than attempt it in-app)
• Attempted to fix graphics corruption for some users of earlier macOS versions.
• Optimisation when transforming Text Frames.
• Help & localisation improvements.

The major improvements in 1.10 since 1.9 are listed in some detail in this 1.10.0 Designer macOS update announcement 
 

UPDATING TO THIS VERSION (Free for existing customers)

The software version can be seen on the splash screen and the About dialog (in application menu, Affinity Designer > About).

If you’ve purchased from the Mac App Store— updates are done automatically next time you run your software after it is available in the Mac App Store. If this does not happen for you, open the Mac App Store app and go to the Updates page and then Store > Reload page or press CMD+R. This should hopefully force the update to show. Apple sometimes phase roll outs around the world which can mean it may take up to 72 hours for your update to be available.

If you’ve purchased from the Affinity Store— each time you start the software it will check for updates and offer to download and install any available update, or in the application main menu there is an option Check for Updates. You can download the latest installer by logging into the affinity store here and find the order in your account and use the "Download" button in there. Alternatively, this new release (and previous versions of Affinity Designer for macOS) can be downloaded from this link (that installer is NOT for Mac App Store purchases and needs a product key).

I just want to say a big THANK YOU to the whole team for this 1.10.5 release!

And especially for providing significant speed improvements and fixes for all kind of text frames performance issues I've raised here in the last year.

Finally, I can really enjoy working on large scale graphic design projects.

Thank you so much and all the best to the Serif team!

Well....the registration error is not fixes in my case (Mac App Store Version):

@Nightshade versuche in den Einstellungen die Sprache erneut auf Deutsch zu stellen, auch wenn da schon Deutsch steht.

Oder die Anwendung zuerst als Administrator starten um zu sehen, ob die Registrierung/Anmeldung geht. Obs, ist ja auf MacOS

[Nightshade]

Habe ich versucht - von "Standard" zu "Deutsch". Hat nicht geholfen.
