wpm Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Affinity Publisher stopped working by not displaying any content in the main window any longer (see attachment). I tried restart and reinstalling the software already. macOS 12.5.1, Affinity Publisher 1.10.5 Any advice? Quote
GarryP Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Welcome to the forums @wpm If this is a specific macOS issue I can't help, but the first thing to try is to either make sure the Publisher window has focus and press the Tab key, or use menu “View → Toggle UI” (they do the same thing). wpm and Callum 2 Quote

That is because 1) you do not have a document open so there is no document content to display & 2) because the UI (the Tool & Studio panels & the toolbars) have been hidden by pressing the Tab key or choosing Toggle UI on the View menu. So like @GarryP mentioned, the quickest & easiest way to show the UI is to press the Tab key to toggle it back on. You still won't see any document content until/unless you either open an existing file or create a new one from the File menu, or double-click on a document file in Finder that APub is set to open. wpm 1 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.6 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 All 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7
wpm Posted August 29, 2022 Author Posted August 29, 2022 Thanks, both. That was the problem. Feeling quite silly now 😂! Quote
GarryP Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 I recently added a feature request about this as it is the fourth similar issue in this month alone:https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/166820-please-add-some-useful-information-to-the-‘background’-when-no-document-is-open-especially-useful-when-the-ui-is-also-toggled-off/ wpm 1 Quote
