heikehk Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I opened an AI File with more than one artborad in Designer. This is something that I have very often. Now it seems that Affinity is not able to have more than one artboard. Instead of giving me the opportunuty to choose which artboard I need with some little previews (like Photoshop does) Designer just opens every artboard in groups. That seems unusable for me because I often use artboards with different size. When will there be a possibility to use artboards? Could you please give me soe more information how to handle this? Thanks Heike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herojas93 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I'm with you guys. It would be amazing... I have a lot of manuals done with AI (multi artboards) that I would like to adapt. Hope they can include that option soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MattP Posted March 9, 2015 Staff Share Posted March 9, 2015 Hi guys, We're not trying to be silent about it - we just had nothing to update you with! :) We've explained before about the order in which features get developed not always being exactly as you'd expect - but it's usually because of things which have consequences on other things, or which piggy-back off other features, so they need to be done first in order to allow us to get on with other features. I know that we'll be starting to look at this as soon as our update to the App Store has gone live - which I'm hoping to submit in the next week or so. Thanks for your patience - we really are typing away enthusiastically as fast as we can (and then some more!) :) Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heikehk Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Hi Matt, it would be very helpful to have a kind of selection of existing artboards in the file meanwhile. Is that in your focus a little bit earlier? regards Heike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried a recent Customer Beta? In 1.1.12.23308 it does let you choose which ArtBoard to open, with a preview. It calls them "Pages", but they are actually ArtBoards. It copes with them being different sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
