Cai Inp Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Thanks! Great idea. It also allows to zoom it, which I never can achieve with the online help (same in Logic, Final Cut) There you sit with your 27" screen, reading 9pt fonts, and your eyes go: "are you insane?" so thanks loads!

You are welcome. The app language is changed in preferences where you looked, on the general tab. If you prefer, these forums are open to posts in any language and we all have to cope, though an additional Google translation is appreciated Cai Inp 1 Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

Google Translate frequently gets it wrong (sometimes with hilarious results) but if the original text is made available it gives the reader a chance to decode the poor translation.

Butler To Cats Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Probably not telling either of you anything but, for the benefit of other readers, using the site option in a Google search can be helpful. e.g. In Google search for "vector brushes" site:affinity.help (the quotes find a specific multi-word phrase rather than also searching for the separate words) or even "vector brushes" site:affinity.help/designer Leave out the quotation marks if you have only a single search word or don't know the exact phrase e.g. boolean site:affinity.help/photo Pariah73 and SrPx 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that can be helpful, and it also works in other major search engines such as Bing, DuckDuckGo, StartPage and Yahoo. Make sure you don’t include a space between site: and the domain/folder name.

SrPx Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Indeed, I've often realized google with that tag works quite better than a ton of internal site searchers. And even knew this from the time I was in charge of adding to ur servers or pages a custom search box and engine.... Even more, some site do include google custom search, but kind of block some (in some cases for shady reasons) search keywords or modify the engine in a way that is less useful.... Then of course, google ain't unstoppable; any site can restrict what google can find in its pages, but that tends to be the way of the Dodo for promotion.... Quote AD, AP and APub V2.5.x.

It can be interesting to put it on your phone or tablet to read when you have some time to spare. Since the file is too big to upload here, I have put it on Dropbox for you to download. It is current for the last version of Affinity Photo. Comments welcomed. Here is the link: https://dropbox.com/s/d3uxmmypdx9ruzw/Affinity%20Photo%20Manual.pdf?dl=0 Phenomenal work! Thank you so much.
