km.au Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Hi, Could anyone please explain how Artboards can be created? Removed or turn a document into an artboard? The video tutorials are all out of date as the "artboard" option is missing from File > New dialogue box. The help files mention the artboard tool but that isn't present in the default interface. There are no options to remove or create artboards when right clicking anywhere in the UI. It's a mystery! I've only been able to create them by importing multi page PDFs. Thanks.

carl123 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Artboards can only be created in Affinity Designer I know you have Affinity Photo but do you also have Designer?

Hokusai Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 km.au, You can add the Art board tool to Designer by going to View/Customize tools and then you'll see the "art board" icon, it has a dotted blue line around a page. Hokusai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See for example, Affinity Designer - Artboards: Basics, Affinity Designer - Artboards: Design Aids, Affinity Designer 1.4 - Artboards: From Content, or any of the other video tutorials in the 2. Artboards section of the Official Affinity Designer Video Tutorials (70+) page.

km.au Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 Ok, this explains it. I'm using Affinity Photo. This seems to support read only of Artboards in terms of creation then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
