Macros are there in Library but missing in "New Batch Job"

Recommended Posts

On Version 2.0.0

Reproducible

On Catalina 10.15.7

I was going through the exercises in AP Workbook. No Page 414 it shows you how to create a New Batch Job. Followed the steps as described. I had already installed the Macro Pack and they do show up in the Library, but not in the New Batch Job dialog.

Screen shots attached. I've never created a batch job so don't know if this was working correctly before upgrading.

You need to tap the top item, in your case 'image styles" to see all the other macro libraries that have previously been present, then you can select the required macro from the selected macro library.

It looks to me like both screenshots show the Image Styles category, Paul. So shouldn't they both show the same list of macros?

Ah yes, there is a bug I reported where it actually lists every macro library that has ever been imported which is why several libraries are listed more than once such as my Mud’s Macros library. So I guess there is a further problem with this dialogue boxes list handling, those macros are from the next library not the selected library.

I noticed this after I deleted a category. There is something wrong with the Macros library in the Batch job.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

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