Hidden Palette fields + Search in Help does not work in Mac Publisher 2.21


Recommended Posts

I spent 2 days trying to find how to control cell sizes in Tables in Publisher 2.2.1 for Mac.

1.  Search is not working in Affinity Help Menu. I can show the Help and manually search but a simple search on "Table" finds nothing although it is part of the Help.

2. The Table Inspector opens as a shrunken window with no indication that there were hidden fields below, which contained what I was looking for, the Cell sizes and alignments. 

3. The Help pages on your website here, do not match those accessed via the Help menu in the App.

4. There is no screenshot or text anywhere that I can find that shows the paths/locations of Setting Inspectors and then what I should expect to find there

5. Would it be possible to have the Help published as a PDF manual that can be quickly searched and annotated?

You can try the Online Help at https://affinity.help which may work better for you. There seems to be an issue on macOS with the in-app Help:

They seem to for me. Can you provide an example?
