lenogre Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I just want to say : I love you, guys ! Every day, I congratulate myself for leaving Illustrator. Mixing vectors, effects and color adjustment layers is really a must have. Having in the same app Illustrator and Photoshop is an incredible gain of time. And the result is really better ! Thanks.

00Ghz Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 guys what’s going on? I reported the bug where AD crashes when attempting to make new folder while in the finder window(for opening/saving to a location) long time ago. Still happens in latest beta. predick 1 UI Designer, CG Artist Macbook Pro 15" 2014 2.5 Ghz, 750M https://www.behance.net/VladMafteiuScai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Just as an aside, I wasn't aware that the new beta had been released until the previous one I kept open continuously for a week plus even when I wasn't using it crashed this morning. Of course, when I tried to reopen it again from the crash report window, I got the 'expired' message & an currently downloading the new one, but I wonder if there is any way we can get email notifications about new betas, or some other way outside the app's expired mechanism or the beta forum here for this? Certainly not a big thing but it would be useful for those of us that don't regularly quit the Affinity apps ... & are maybe a bit too lazy or preoccupied with other things to check the beta forums as often as we should. By the way, it is a nice touch that even if an expired beta crashes with unsaved document edits, after installing the new one the file recovery feature still offers to open that file. Well done!

A_B_C Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 There seems to be an unresolved inconsistency with colour display under certain circumstances (just wanted to make sure that this does not get lost, since the report was filed under “Questions”): https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/20672-color-not-displaying-correctly/ :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenogre Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I have often troubleshooting with snap. A little video… The selected object is not magnetic, it's a non selected object. I must zoom in and out, change tool to get the good behaviour. snapping.mov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackofDiamonds Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I learned a lot from turning on viewing snapping candidates. When you hold your mouse over a line, it adds it as a snap target. Sometimes irritating, but makes things a bit clearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Hi everybody, I have strange selection issues with the Move Tool and some text frames. I was able to create a simple test document that shows the issues. You can select one of the text frames by clicking besides it … :huh: The issue seems to be related to the zoom level (see my second video), and it does show up not only in the current Beta, but in the App Store version as well. I am a bit confused, but I hope you will get down to the root of the issue. Thank you very much, Alex :) Test.afdesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted June 7, 2016 Staff Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hi predick, Slices are still using a global coordinate system thus the values displayed. I believe this will be revised for version 1.5 but i'm not totally sure yet. I'm checking it out. Thanks for reporting. predick 1 A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badcat Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) The various PDF Exports results in empty/blank PDF files. Exporting to EPS seems fine. Using an Artboard. CMYK. Under OSX 10.10.5 EDIT: Hmm - the same file also fails to export correctly to PDF under AD 1.4.1. Also tried under AP 1.4.1 - also fails. But EPS and PSD export work fine. UPDATE: Copy / Pasting entire file contents to a new doc set up without Artboard now works fine. So.. what's stopping the artboard based file from exporting correctly to PDF?

Staff MEB Posted June 9, 2016 Staff Share Posted June 9, 2016 Hi badcat, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Can you upload the original afdesign file using this link so we can take a look please? All files will be deleted after being inspected. Thanks. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badcat Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 OK - File uploaded. I sent my "original" as well as the "converted" versions Here's what happened. I converted a working AD file (meaning it was able to export to PDF) from > a non-artboard based file to > an artboard based file. I converted the file by choosing the backmost layer and selecting the Convert to Artboard menu item. After that, PDF export becomes broken. PDF export fails also when using the Export persona as well as the standard File > Export options. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badcat Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 BUG? I suppose it doesn't "hurt", but it's strange that I can create Artboards that include the ability to change Corner Style, Radius etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Harris Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 BUG? I suppose it doesn't "hurt", but it's strange that I can create Artboards that include the ability to change Corner Style, Radius etc. Any shape can be used as an Artboard. You might want round ones for DVDs, CDs or records, for example. R C-R, vonBusing and Brian D 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted June 16, 2016 Staff Share Posted June 16, 2016 Hi badcat, Sorry the delay getting back to you. I was checking the cause of the issue and got stuck with another situation from other user. I'm sorry. I already checked the file and it does brake the export. To do the conversion to an artboard based document properly, select the Artboard tool, make sure the Size dropdown is set to Document and click Insert Artboard. It should export to PDF as expected. I will pass this to the dev team. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
