Delete button on keyboard not working in Publisher, Designer.


Recommended Posts

Hi @KipV,

This post may help...

If for any reason you still have the problem, prior to seeing @MikeTO's post I'd run a factory reset by launching Publisher and Designer whilst holding the Ctrl Key and selecting all options in the top section which also fixed the delete key not working to delete items but of course that achieves the same thing resetting any keyboard shortcuts...

Try @MikeTO's option first and see if that fixes the issue for you...

Affinity Designer 2.4.2 | Affinity Photo 2.4.2 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.2
Affinity Designer  Beta 2.5.0 (2449) | Affinity Photo Beta 2.5.0 (2449) | Affinity Publisher Beta 2.5.0 (2449)

MacBook Pro M3 Max, 36 GB Unified Memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1, Magic Mouse

The issue "Some shortcuts are broken when upgrading from 2.1.1 to 2.2 with modified shortcuts" (REF: PD-935) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "2.2.0.1971".
This fix should soon be available as a customer beta and is planned for inclusion in the next customer release.
Customer beta builds are announced here and you can participate by following these instructions.
If you still experience this problem once you are using that build version (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.

This bug appears to have been fixed in Publisher. I tried to see if it was fixed in Designer but the window will not show up for me on the laptop. (I can see it in stage manager and expose only and probably on my large screen if I had access to it.) So right now I can't test that bug on Designer.

Hello there... I updated to the new version of Affinity Publisher and now the delete button is useless. Cannot delete textboxes nor from the file itself or the levels tab/panel. The ONLY way I'm able to delete any item is right clicking on the mouse and then "eliminate" but only if done from the layers panel, which is obviously a hassle. Please help!

Try resetting your shortcuts in Preferences. @Serif Info Bot suggests this has been fixed but I had to reset everything to get even the new shortcuts loaded.
