LilleG Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I have created a new measurement that answers the age-old question: How many angels can dance on the end of a pin? BUT, I don't know whether to call the units of measurement "APP" (angels per pinhead) or "APEOSPT" (angels per end of sharp pointy thing)? This forum thread seems like the perfect place to ask for guidance! In either case, you will need to add an additional field so the user can specify Round or Flat-headed pin. ;) smadell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 You and I know that, Mike, but the client in the story clearly didn't! ;) I'm not certain the article author knows that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balling Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 There's a great cautionary tale ("The Horrible DPI Mistake") on this page. There's a heap of issues in that article. I'm unsure if the author is explaining themselves poorly or just not entirely strong on the subject, but I honestly wouldn't recommend taking anything on that page as fact.

Sharkey Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I know it is of no interest or affect BUT when I first decided to move to Affinity Photo one of the first confusions was its use of DPI!
