Affinity Design 2: Ability to change the margin and grid settings for multiple artboards simultaneously


Recommended Posts

It would be a big game changer to be able to select multiple artboards and change settings like this. It's very tedious to change it for each individual artboard to get the same settings across each one. Especially with something as basic as giving them all the same margins, or the same grid (not across all boards, just apply the same preset to all). Thanks Affinity team!

If your artboards have the same size and are defacto "pages" (see also their naming), then use APublisher to create a document that works with pages. You can then set the margins, grid and guides for multiple/all pages at the same time using the respective Master Pages.

Thanks for the heads up.
