Happy Gilmore Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Where can I find out? Never mind. I see it, and yes there is. Did you try running as administrator? I had a similar issue when i updated to the UA update on win10 with numerous apps. I ended up re-installing a fresh full version of win10 AU. From what i red it had to do with the user account getting messed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up re-installing a fresh full version of win10 AU. From what i red it had to do with the user account getting messed up. Well I reset factory settings about 2 or 3 months ago to get Windows 8 back because my system was changing in 10 with their forced updates. I didn't run as administrator, no, but I think the newer versions of Windows just lack a lot of support, and then we pay the price. 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.

It likely will create a PDF on your system. Just walk away, make a cup of coffee or tea, sit out on the porch for a while. You get the picture. It will take an inordinate amount of time. But it will create the PDF. Most of it will get flattened into bitmaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andre luiz Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I found a bug in this version, I am putting in the color of window, the slider controls, more every time I put a new color to an object, return to tonality, it is annoying.

GDPR-365024 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'm getting 'Affinity Designer has been restarted after a serious error' every time I launch 1.5.0.15. I've not had this with any of the earlier betas nor with 1.5.0.15 since installing it until just recently. I had a NVIDIA (GTX 870M) graphics card driver update within the past 48 hours or so...I wonder? 23791994-bac6-42d0-8f1f-2c62d687b95f.dmp line_crash.afdesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'm getting 'Affinity Designer has been restarted after a serious error' every time I launch 1.5.0.15. Do the crashes stop if you reset the program? In case you didn't know, you do this by pressing the Ctrl key, keeping it held down while you launch the program and then pressing the 'Clear' button in the Clear User Data dialog that pops up.

Unfortunately not! The same restart notice pops up. Also, I switched graphics card to the Intel one...no go with that either. I'm going to re-install - clear out as many traces of the current install as possible beforehand. If there's a positive outcome I'll post back here.

GDPR-365024 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 All good now :) Uninstalled as per usual Windows 10 'Programs and Features'. Deleted Affinity + Affinity Common folders from Affinity and Serif/ in both Program Files and AppData. Ran CCleaner to remove other traces. Fresh install of 1.5.0.15 One thing worth pointing out - My initial install of 1.5.0.15 (on top of 1.5.0.14) installed into Program Files/Serif/Affinity ...etc. I was quite surprised to see it there because didn't the install path change a couple of betas ago to Program Files/Affinity? The only thing in Program Files/Affinity was the Common folder. This fresh install is in Program Files/Affinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 It's good to hear that it's all sorted now. Thanks for the update! (I hadn't noticed, by the way, that the install path had changed.)

MikeW Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Thank you man!!! I will try on my 4 core pc. BTW, I meant to include this in my post above and forgot. If you export as a PDFX-4, the vectors remain vectors, the export is fast and doesn't create an ~14 meg PDF. I didn't try other PDF types and so didn't try the Rasterize Nothing setting. However, I do run into this frequently. AD will create bitmaps all too easily even when there shouldn't be any in the PDF, and so I have had to try multiple settings in exporting PDFs. Silly.

Mike Oh boy, more PDF trouble. I remember that topic. Haha. You said that you didn't try the Rasterize Nothing setting. Might that be the problem? From our conversation, I understood that Illustrator (if you were using previously for PDFX-4s) is the only or one of the few programs that sustains vector quality when exporting files to vector PDFs without making the right adjustments. But then again, I think you have more knowledge when it comes to exporting. The website is still a work in progress. The "Comics" and "Shop" sections are not yet ready.

AdamStanislav Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 AD will create bitmaps all too easily even when there shouldn't be any in the PDF, and so I have had to try multiple settings in exporting PDFs. Silly. Not just in PDF. AD will create bitmaps all too easily in SVG exports even when it could be using SVG filters. That is why I never use AD’s own effects, but export to SVG and apply effects in Inkscape or by directly coding them in SVG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AEON Artistry Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I don't know if anyone here are facing the same issue. Every time I click in some object it moves by itself, couple of pixels, some times more and sometimes less. I've just installed the last version and the issue persist. Someone are facing this? Thanks Affinity team! I had that problem also and it was mouse acceleration - turned it off in windows 10 and that solved the problem for me. I hope that helps. :wub: My Rig :ph34r:http://pcpartpicker.com/list/JcgBVn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Adam, yep. I don't normally use svg. Even so, I think I have used it more to move stuff out of AD more than I ever used the format in the past. AdamStanislav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have strong opinions about AD's implementation of its PDF exporting that are best left to myself. AdamStanislav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraGGa1988 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I would like to thank the BETA initiative, try the application in Windows has been rewarding.

JamesD Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 The startup time is now faster than before, and .afdesign files (along with PSDs, .ai, and other supported file formats) are loaded much faster than before.
