Deaner666 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 After creating a new document in Publisher 2, then creating an artboard in the Designer persona, you can no longer change the Document Units in the Document Setup dialog. The dropdown contains three options called "Item 1", "Item 2" and "Item 3". Selecting any of them makes no difference. If you delete the artboard so the document returns to being a "page", you can again change the document units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 I'm not sure what "dropdown" you're referring to. Can you provide a screenshot, please? On Windows, I have no problem changing the document units using Document Setup in the situation you've described, and I see no pulldown like you describe. A hint, though: If you're going to want a document with Artboards, and you're in Publisher, switch to the Designer Persona before you use File > New. The dialog in the Designer Persona will let you create an initial Artboard as you create the document.

Deaner666 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi Walt, It'll have to wait until I'm back in the office for a screenshot, because due to this bug: I can't open Publisher 2 at the moment :-( Kind regards, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deaner666 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi Walt, Here's a screenshot from Designer 2. Imagine this but in the Designer persona of Publisher 2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Thanks. And my apologies for being unclear. I was referring to: 1 hour ago, Deaner666 said: The dropdown contains three options called "Item 1", "Item 2" and "Item 3". Please provide a screenshot showing that.

Deaner666 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi Walt, As I mentioned, I can't open Publisher 2 at the moment, but the screenshot I posted from Designer is exactly the same as the one in the Designer persona of Publisher. Except in Publisher, the dropdown I called out with the magenta arrow is the one that contains the entries "Item 1", "Item 2" and "Item 3".

walt.farrell Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Thanks. On Windows, the Units dropdown has the proper, expected values. So perhaps you've found a Mac-only issue.
