Probably an oversight. There is no option in Preferences to add shortcuts to items in the context menu in Publisher. The items in question are: Move Selection to New Layer, and Expand Stroke. Serif forgot to add these items to shortcuts in their haste. And the final version 2.6 is just around the corner.

The option is also missing from the Layer Menu in Publisher which seems a little odd... On Mac, none of the Keyboard shortcuts are shown in the Context Menu...

I'm not convinced it should be on the right-click menu in Publisher. I think it was added by mistake for Photo and Publisher... I'm just waiting to hear back from the developers.

Noooooooo. Do not remove it. Pleeeeaaaaase.

PS: As this RC3 was released I thought it was meant as a birthday present for me. Obviously not. 😭

I must admit I'm not technically aware of how StudioLink works, but given the level of integration between file extensions, tools, and personas, I keep finding decisions to exclude features from certain applications baffling. Why can't we open PSD smart objects in Publisher? Why can't we get an Export Persona in Publisher (Do people only batch export stuff in Designer and Photo??). Following this line of questioning: Why on earth would expanding a stroke be a Designer only feature? Instead of drastic decisions like this, maybe we could get more checkboxes in the program settings and decide for ourselves. As a Publisher power-user, I think that approach would be much nicer.

And weak Serif, weak. Our intention was only to add shortcuts, not to remove the shortcut menu from the list. Seriously, Serif, you are regressing in development.

In this Beta release, the Expand Stroke item has been removed from the Publisher and Photo pop-up menus.

You are making decisions that your customers do not ask you to make. After selling out to Canva, you most likely have no say in the matter.

Too bad. Because I have made several thousand projects in your program for 9 years, and I don't know if I will not slowly withdraw from your software. Thank you Butryn Marek
