Chapter icon in Anchors panel and Hyperlink Properties seems off


Recommended Posts

The Chapter icon in the Anchors panel and in Hyperlink Properties looks like it might be missing a line. I couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be at first until I realized that it's the left and right sides of a book but with the spine missing. Perhaps there was supposed to have been a spine in this icon?

Hi @MikeTO,

I've been able to show this icon in the Anchors dialog when using a Book document with multiple chapters, though I'm yet to see this in the Hyperlinks dialog.

How exactly are you setting up your Anchor/Hyperlink, in order for this icon to show within this panel please?

In regards to the icon itself, I agree that it should have a visible 'spine' down the centre to be clearer, so I'm logging this with the team now :)

I'd been seeing the icon all day in the Anchors panel but had just closed my test book and was too lazy to re-open it so I copied the screenshot from the help page which I had open (https://affinity.help/publisher2/English.lproj/index.html?page=pages/Advanced/anchors.html?title=Anchors). It said the icon was shown in the Anchors panel and Hyperlink Properties. Oops, reality didn't match that page.

Here's are actual screenshots of the Anchors panel and Hyperlink properties. The icon is visible in the Anchors panel but not in Hyperlink Properties - the help page's screenshot is also missing the newer data merge controls.

Oops indeed, I hadn't thought to check there :$ Thanks for confirming!

I've adjusted the UI bug report to clarify it's the icon in the Anchors dialog to be adjusted to be clearer and I'll get a separate issue logged with our docs team to update the Hyperlink properties screenshot to match the new options in 2.2 :)
