fenris64 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The option to add arrow ends to lines seems to be missing in Publisher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 It's not available in any of our apps but is something that we are looking top implement across the board in the future Quote Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugsy Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Need ability to add arrowheads, pointers, dots at end of lines, brackets, etc. Use this a lot in technical documentation right inside the document. The graphic is placed, then callouts added, all is grouped and positioned on page. Rylek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted August 31, 2018 Staff Share Posted August 31, 2018 @Mugsy Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums Affinity Publisher will get this when it is added to Affinity Designer, where it has been on the official Affinity Designer roadmap for some time. jmwellborn 1 Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

dim p Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Arrowheads is an absolute must for a layout and publishing program. The most basic online design and publlishing apps have it, even word and apple's pages. Please implement it sooner rather than later.

It's been on that list since 2014. I would think that it could have been added by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted September 2, 2018 Staff Share Posted September 2, 2018 @Michael117 I have to say that I agree, but I am not a developer, (though I have some appreciation of the difficulties involved). h_d 1 Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

Philcinbath Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Much agree Arrowheads are a must As is a set of compatible apps i.e. Publishing text, vector drawings, and image manipulation I cannot be the only one wanting to leave my suite of Adobe software behind, which gets flakier each time Apple do an update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fde101 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 My understanding of the roadmaps as mentioned above is that the indicated features should be expected sometime during the 1.x versions of the applications. Assuming that to be accurate, and given the above comment that they will be in Publisher when they are in Designer, that would mean sometime before 2.0 is released, thus while the updates are still free...

jmwellborn Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I am not a designer, nor a technical editor, and I hope everybody won't laugh at me, but here is what I would do in the meantime, because I really, really like Publisher and really, really am thoroughly annoyed with Adobe. So I have attached a screen shot. Quote 24" iMAC Apple M1 chip, 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 16 GB unified memory, 1 TB SSD storage, Ventura 13.6. Photo, Publisher, Designer 1.10.5, and 2.3.

Agreed it is not the most optimal solution in the world, and they should eventually get this working on paths, but if the arrows you need are relatively straight, it is still something. jmwellborn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
