Affinity Publisher v1 on macOS SONOMA 14.0 bugs

[Tanya Y.]

Hi,

after upgrade on Sonoma 14.0 I'm constantly getting the following bugs:

*since the issue with the light UI is already known I won't include it here. Other problems I've had during work:

1. Some keyboard shortcuts don't work: e.g. I have set the Next page shortcut to cmnd+down arrow >> it doesn't work. If I change it a combination of cmnd + any number >> it does work. I've tried over 20 different combinations and none of them worked (except cmnd+number).

2. Apply master function - after the menu to select which master to apply pops up, selecting any master page is not possible so the action cannot be completed (video attached).

I can duplicate both of these bugs.

As a workaround for the second one, drag the master page thumbnail onto the page (or selected pages) thumbnails you want to apply it to. This will replace the existing master and not give you an opportunity to add it to the existing master, but at least you can apply it.

I also recommend upgrading to v2 - Publisher v2 is far more powerful than Publisher v1.

Thanks for reporting these.

We already had the shortcut issue logged but didn't have the Apply Master Page issue logged, so I've just logged that with the Developers

Hi there,

Since downloading Mac OS Sonama, I am having issues with Affinity Publisher V1. When I go to save or select an image, the action box freezes. I have to close affinity publisher, reopen it and then it will work for one image. Then for next image it wont.

Hi @Matthewjames123and Welcome to the Forums,

Could you attach a screen recording showing your complete workflow?  To record your screen on Mac, see here.

Where are the images stored, locally or iCloud or Network drive?
