Photo persona not working

[jimlewis 0]

When I click on Photo Pesona, I get the following message: "A compatible version of Affinity Photo is required." I purchased Affinity three months ago through the AppStore. Is this the explanation for the error message?

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums

Thanks, but for now this is by design. The Vector and Photo Personas require a compatible version of the codebase so should enable once we have a released 1.7 build of Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo respectively.

yes, worth watching the tutorial videos already published.  very nice quick overview.

Thanks. I understand.

I was a little puzzled by this too. Perhaps worth changing the alert text to something a bit more understandable like "This feature isn't available in the beta version".

It sounds as if this answers my question as well. Just updated Designer and it still didn't work, nor could I directly open a Publisher file within Designer. Really would have liked being able to export web content.

I think it WILL be available in the APub beta version once there is a 1.7 customer beta of ADe and APh
