Affinity Photo V2 - Superscript, Subscript Issue


Sahan

Recommended Posts

I would have expected the superscript and subscript options in the Character Studio to work, as (on the desktop, at least) those create faux super- and subscript appearance for any characters.

The Positioning options in the OpenType settings, though, would only work for characters supported by the fonts. Those are true super- and subscripts using characters provided by the fonts.

I can't try it on my iPad right now.

It seems to be an issue with all 3 V2 apps. The superscript and subscript options in the Positioning part of the Character studio don't work. The OpenType options work, but not the basic ones that create faux super- and subscripts.

Hi All,

I have replicated this here and have logged it with our developers to be fixed in a future update. I will update this thread once I have more info :)

Thanks

Just for people having this issue, found this thread and like me thought the Serif bot meant the Text menu, it's not in the text-menu but in the character panel still. This is where it's at in Designer:

The buttons under Typography to change subscript and superscript don't work, but the dropdown under Positioning and Transform does work:

(BTW it's interesting that we can toggle on both superscript and subscript at the same time in Typography. I wonder what was supposed to happen in that case)
