Publisher 2.1.1 / 2.2.0 Linked File Layer Visibility Override

Hello

As says in this page :

https://affinityspotlight.com/article/5-things-you-should-know-about-affinity-publisher-2/

We could choose layers of PSD imported in Publisher with link (or any other Affinity doc).

I don't see any option for that in the toolbar (Desktop version MAC).

I have found this thread:

but, on my computer, I don't even see the layer option on the toolbar.

Someone know something ?

Thank you

Assuming you've made sure that your resource is Linked, not Embedded, perhaps you could share a screenshot of what you do see? Please make sure the full application window is visible, along with the Layers panel, with your Linked resource layer highlighted.

Hi @steday,

Thanks for your report!

Please note this feature is only compatible with Layer 'container' layers in placed documents, not for all  layers in your linked file.

For example, 'Layer1' would show on the Context Toolbar with this file placed as Linked, but the Ellipse object would not be listed, as it is not in a Layer.

I hope this clears things up :)
