Just updated to this version and can no longer select 'Landscape' format in 'Document Setup' (B5 document).

Which Affinity application are you using?

And when you say ‘Document Setup’, which one are you using?

And when you say “can no longer select”, do you mean:

  • the control is not there, or;
  • the control is there but is disabled, or;
  • the control is enabled but doesn’t seem to make any difference to the settings when used, or;
  • something else?

A full-screen (whole application UI) screenshot would help us to see what you can see.

1) Affinity Designer 2

2)Document Setup / create/ B5 /

B5 blank document appears

Document Setup Box above document

Deselect 'Portrait'

The 'tick' disappears but the document remains 'portrait' when 'OK' selected.

Works for me on macOS so Windows only?

Confirmed the problem in the Designer beta on Windows 11

I can confirm as well using A4 document on Windows 11. Also, if you click on document setup afterwards you will find the portrait box has been ticked again.

Here on my Mac I find I cannot change the size of a document using the Document setup window. Mac OS 12.7.6

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Hi @MWOO,

I believe this is a known bug in the 2.6.0.3207 Beta logged under AF-5559 currently awaiting a fix. It affects both Windows and Mac and happens when Objects will: is set to Rescale in Designer in the Document Setup window...

If you change Recale to Anchor to Page you should find your new blank document changes from portrait to landscape...
