Affinity Designer Public Beta (RC3) - 1.5.0.27 (Windows)


Recommended Posts

Click here to download the latest beta

 

Status: Release Candidate 3

Purpose: Stability

Requirements: None

 

As this is a beta release, it is considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity that you may be adversely affected by the application failing. In addition it is worth noting that files created in Affinity Designer 1.5 cannot be opened in Affinity Photo 1.4, which means that although files created with the Windows beta can be opened in the Mac AppStore version of Designer (currently on 1.5.1) they cannot be opened in the latest Mac App Store versions Affinity Photo, instead you will need the latest macOS 1.5 beta.

 

We hope you enjoy the latest build, and as always, if you've got any problems, please don't hesitate to post here and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks once again for your continued feedback.
 
If you have a general question about the software, please head over to the Questions Forum, or if you have any suggestions, please head over to the Feature Requests forum.

Hey Highvoltage,

 

What do you have set as the next style in the Edit Text Style settings? Are you pressing Shift+Enter?

 

We'd like to encourage you to stay on the current beta if possible as this is the very purpose of having a beta. You might not find current issues or may report fixed issues if you go back - This is of course your choice, though.

Thanks

Here are all of the files in the folder

 

Thanks for that. It looks like you have an ICC profile installed which is causing problems. I think I can fix the problem, but it would be useful if you could identify which profile is causing the crash, and send it over? That way we can verify the fix.

Today I was writing some text in polish langauge into AD.

Every program is set that right ALT is modifer to set up a specific letter, in polish these are: ą, ę, ć, ź, ż, ł, ó and we can get it by combine as follows: alt + a, alt + e, alt + c, alt + x, alt + z, alt + l, alt + o.

But in AD clicking each combination we end up in menu, eg. alt + e = edit menu, alt + l = layer menu, etc. And this should only perform left ALT :)

Hope its help you a bit ;)

Hi, thanks for the report. I'm sure it used to work this way in previous versions - I'll have a look if someone has changed.

I am getting the same problem as Depcore.  I installed RC3 this morning and Designer will not boot, same error code:

 

Unhandled Exception

An Unhandled Exception has occurred and the application cannot continue.

The Crash Reference dialog will be displayed when the application is restarted.

Code: 0x80004003

 

Noting your response, I have attached the zipped CrashReports.

Thanks for the crash reports, I've had a look and yes, it's exactly the same crash as Depcore. I've put a fix in place for the next release, but it would be really useful if we could identify the ICC profile that is causing the problem. Can you get a list of ICC profiles that are installed on your system? What about if you go to "Colour Management" in Windows and see what your current profile is set to?

Being a photographer there are a lot but will do as you ask.

Mark, 

I am not so sure. I usually did not use Polish diacritical signs on whatever graphics created but ALT did not work in the previous versions.

Hi Mark,

 

Attached screen copies of requested files, let me know if I can help further.

Hers how to list all the ICC profiles via command prompt

 

menu start cmd,

in the command line

cd  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color

 

then

 

dir *.* >> icc.txt

 

This will save the directory listing to the file called icc.txt (if there's a problem run this in the admin console)

icc.txt

I've checked the reports, and they are the same crashes as Depcore, and Woodkopf. Again, if you could list any ICC profiles you have installed, that would be super helpful. There will be a fix available in the next release.

 

Here's the list of my ICC Profiles.

I've highlighted the profile of my display.
