gyan1 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 i am creating a site with a black background. In designer, need to create many new documents. For consistency, need all black. so when i open a new document type web color format RGB/16, opens a page with white background. then i take the rectangle fill it with black and begin my illustration. The question is : is there a way to open new documents in black as default and the font i use most as default? if so, how? thanks. Affinity has made my life soooooooo easy, now i got addicted.

v_kyr Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Not per default prefs/option settings or the like. - What you can do instead is make yourself a template file (doc or artboard based) with the needed document size and black rect fill pseudo background and setup some dummy text there in the font(s) you want to use. Then every time to you need a new doc of that style just reuse that custom template you made. Macros or scripting support are sadly not available in AD which is a shame, since they would be more than useful.

Life became sooooooo much simpler. Happy Camper!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
