Preferences > General > Language and Desktop items no show, Background


Recommended Posts

Under Preferences > General > Language will not stick after a restart.

 

Place items on the desktop and you cannot see the items. You have to draw over the area to 'find' them.

 

The inability to change the black of the menu's and toolbars needs to be change  The black pulls you eyes out it is so hard.

 

Help is also faulty in that the text won't resize to the screen size.

Hi Dodgy,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

Thanks for your feedback.

 

We are already aware of the first issue. As far as i know it sticks to the selected language however most translations are not finished/implemented yet so you may not be seeing much changes.

Go to menu View ▸ View Mode and uncheck Clip to Canvas.

 

This was requested a couple times but for now our goal is to achieve feature parity with the Mac version and fix this early stage bugs.

 

What do you mean with text won't resize to screen size? Does it now reflow to fill the window's width?

Regarding the language changing in preferences we are aware of an issue where it reverts after changing.

 

It is also worth noting that the program isn't fully localized yet.

 

You can alter the gamma of the UI in preferences if that helps, but you aren't the first to suggest a lighter alternative, and the devs are aware of this.

Oh yes, worked that one out, it is the rest of the UI. The black is hard and hurtful to the eyes. No way could sit for hours with that black.

Dodgy, what resolution and scaling are you using? I'll emulate your setup and have a look. If you could provide a screenshot that would also be really helpful, thanks.

Couldn't work out how to attach a picture.  The MyMedia doesnt work to let you navigate to a folder.

The menu is always visible over the text (instead of resizing all the text), if you hide the menu then the help looks pretty much as I would expect, unless i'm missing something?
