Mark Ingram Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Status: Public Beta Purpose: Stability Requirements: None Download: Here As this is a beta release, it is considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity that you may be adversely affected by the application failing. In addition it is worth noting that files created in Affinity 1.5 cannot be opened in 1.4, which means files created with the Windows beta cannot be opened in the Mac AppStore version of Designer, instead you will need the latest Mac beta. We hope you enjoy the latest build, and as always, if you've got any problems, please don't hesitate to post here and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks once again for your continued feedback. If you have a general question about the software, please head over to the Questions Forum, or if you have any suggestions, please head over to the Feature Requests forum.

JamesD Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Two updates that quick? The Affinity team is on a roll to say the least. Downloading the new update. I am still having the font selection from the last build, and I am hoping that this build addresses that issue. The screenshots below will show the problem I am still having.

Known Issues The .NET installer can fail during the installation, try rebooting your computer as Windows Updates are pending I couldn't get the .Net installer to complete - I had no updates pending but rebooted anyway, still no good. The installer packed within the AD installer for the .Net framework hung so I downloaded the installer separately from Microsoft and tried this as an offline installation, this also hung. Finally I downloaded the web stub from MS and tried the installation again, this time it succeeded. So, if anyone is still having problems with the .Net installation after rebooting I suggest you try the web stub installer from MS here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/3120737 Note this is the English GB version MattP 1 Windows 11 Pro 64bit ¤ AMD Threadripper 3990x ¤ Nvidia RTX 3090 ¤ 256GB DDR4 Ram ¤ ROG Zenith II Extreme Alpha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andre luiz Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I'm still having trouble printing, and niguém gives me a satisfactory answer. Always configure the total size A4 printing, plus print out always much higher or leaves a leaf room, never leaves the correct size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Cope Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Had no luck with that sadly :( Try searching google for .Net 4.6.2 web installer, you will probably get the German version - one thing that did happen for me was as the installer began running it found 3 running apps that needed to be closed that the AD and offline installers didn't. I wonder if it might help you to try and install in safe mode?

Mitsu Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) Try searching google for .Net 4.6.2 web installer, you will probably get the German version - one thing that did happen for me was as the installer began running it found 3 running apps that needed to be closed that the AD and offline installers didn't. I wonder if it might help you to try and install in safe mode? So far I've tried to install both the offline and web installer. That goes for the english and german version of it. I'll try to install it in safe mode EDIT: No luck in safe mode. One can't install .NET in safe mode either way. Also double checked all applications are closed that could be running on .NET, yet no luck with that option either.

Bri-Toon Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Two updates that quick? The Affinity team is on a roll to say the least. Downloading the new update. I am still having the font selection from the last build, and I am hoping that this build addresses that issue. The screenshots below will show the problem I am still having. In that first example, is your problem trying to re-edit the text? Just use the Move Tool and double click your text box. The website is still a work in progress. The "Comics" and "Shop" sections are not yet ready. Feel free to connect with me and let me know what you like or what can be improved. You can contact me here, on my contact page, YouTube channel, or Twitter account. Thanks and have a great day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramon0 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Thank you! No problems so far but quite the contrary. Besides stability, it's like performance is also improving more and more and that's something me and my Core 2 Duo CPU really appreciate :). Well, keep up the excellent work and thanks again!

ziemowittt Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I have problem with intallation ( NET freamework 4.6.2).Installator shows error: components storage is defective. I tried literally everything: download online and offline installator from Microsoft and other sites with software. I also tried to download older versions. For example, the version 4.5 installer shows the same thing, and when I install version 4.0 it writes that I already have this or a later version. Please help. It's little bad with this .NET framework... :( Without him, the installation does not move on -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hi ziemowitt Have you tried restarting your PC at any point whilst you've been trying to install .NET? Sometimes pending reboots from things like windows updates can hold up the install so it might be worth trying a reboot before attempting to install again.

When the web installer started it stopped a couple of other apps that were interfering with the .Net installer. Just let it continue, it does take about 20 minutes to install. Once installed I restarted the PC then installed AD and all went fine.

Cutterman417 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 So far, loving the new update. No more crashes and I love it. I really appreciate the quick fix. One problem I am having is that my zoom out short cut (Ctrl+-) is not working. It's not too much of a big deal because I can just zoom to fit and then go from there, but I am just letting you know so you are aware. Thanks again! billyzver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
