APhoto V2 - Layer Panel- Layer Description

[StudioJason]

Didn’t see, so apologies for repost…

 

On Layers Panel… any Text used puts the ‘Paragraph Symbol’ within the Description on Layers Panel.

Did not do this before…as I have typed and used Return (end paragraph) while using Art Text prior, without this happening.

Hi @StudioJason,

Thanks for your report and our sincerest apologies for the delayed response here. We are exceptionally busy following the release of V2 and we thank you for your continued patience and understanding here.

I can confirm this is by design, in Affinity desktop V1 & V2 the Special Characters are shown in the automatic layer name for text objects, which has now been added to iPad for V2.

I hope this helps

Ok. Don’t like it, but ok.

So is it also by design that Font Names are in Chinese…instead of what they’re actually named?

Sorry to hear that - I'll log an improvement with our team to request the option to enable/disable these characters being shown in the Layers Studio for you now

No, I can confirm this is unfortunately a known issue which has been logged with our team regarding Adobe CC fonts, however I'm not 100% certain of the origin of the font in your screenshot.

Can you please confirm for me, how is this font installed on your iPad? (ie a third party font manager, such as Adobe CC, installed through iPadOS settings, or directly within the Affinity app settings?)

Many thanks!

It is directly from in Affinity App settings…through Preferences > Fonts…occurs in all 3 Affinity V2 Apps, after moderate use, sporadic at first, but now seemingly permanent.

Thanks for verifying that for me - I've tested this here with a few fonts and I'm not seeing the same issue currently, though I do note you mention this was sporadic at first.

Can you please confirm for me, what fonts have you installed? Do you recall any specific operations that showed this issue?

many thanks once again
