macalienx Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I bought you´re app AD a few days ago and i´m am very happy with it. But i have a little trouble here i hope you could help. I´m working with and old macbook from late 2008 with the 10.9.5 osx installed. I have a problem with exporting my work. I texported in .Jpg and .Png and i´m not able to select the option to export the area i want... so i can only export the all document... Thanks in advanced Best regards DonaldDymn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixx Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 How about cropping the image? Usually export exports the whole document, not a selection, so it is normal behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted October 13, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hi macalienx, If you select your objects first either by drawing a selection box around them, or holding Command and selecting them in the Layers panel. Then when you go File > Export and select JPG or PNG, change the Area to Selection with or without background and click Export. Another option is to use the Export Persona and to create a Slice around your objects and just export this. You may want to have a look at this video tutorial on exporting. Hope this helps.

macalienx Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hi Fixx and Lee D, thanks for your quick answer and tips. But I have a beta version on windows and in the export settings when you click in the "area" option there is a sub-menu (all Document, Selection with background, Selection without background) and I bought the final version for machintosh and i am not able to open that sub-menu.... That must be some problem with the app right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 13, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 13, 2016 hi macalienx, Just to confirm, which version of the app are you running? the Mac App Store (1.5.1) or the latest Beta (1.5.2 Beta 2)? I'm assuming it's Mac App Store (1.5.1). Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macalienx Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Thanks MEB, i´ll wait for the solution. I´m Downloading the 1.5.2 beta version on windows to see if it does the same problem as my Osx version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted October 13, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 13, 2016 The Beta 1.5.2 on Mac (not Windows) also has the same issue. Chris_K already confirmed this. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted October 13, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 13, 2016 You can download it from here (Designer 1.5.2 Beta 2 for Mac). No, the version available on the Mac App Store is 1.5.1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
