Designer: Show elements in Bleed Area


Recommended Posts

I love to work with artboards in Designer to create Flyers and other design elements all in one document. Designer also offers Bleed for artboards, which is great when creating PDFs for printing.

One thing is a bit annoying though: Designer will not show the elements within the bleed area. It will indicate the bleed edges, but not show anything outside of the artboard but within the bleed area. This sometimes makes it hard to see how the final output will look like. Perhaps adding an option to the viewing settings to enable this? Thanks!

Yes, this is an issue. It's a production issue, too, not just a feature issue, so it seems like it should be high on the priority list to address. 

As far as I'm aware, this should be fixed within Affinity v2.3, which we've recently released.

Please retest exporting your Artboard with bleed documents in the latest update and let me know if this is now working as expected for you :)

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!

I think my issue was misunderstood: Bleed is working correctly in the exported PDF. However while working in Designer, I do not see the the graphics in the Bleed area when I have artboards enabled. It shows the markers of the bleed area, but no graphics that are outside of the artboard but within the bleed area.

My apologies for any confusion caused, I can verify this is still currently logged as a requested improvement with our development team, however our recent update has also resolved may Artboard Bleed export issues.

I've 'bumped' this improvement request with our development team to bring it to their attention once again for you :)
