JonasTH Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Clean install - no hassle - no indicated errors! Opened AFPhoto file in AFPub - no problem Tried to finish AFPhoto text project using Publisher(AFPhoto is erratic in text operation-"nervous"). Observation 1 - Unusual insertion maybe by design When I use Text Frame tool to insert text, if I simply click in the work surface - nothing happens- maybe it is supposed to be that way, but most all applications I use will insert a contingent text frame set to the current font style, font, and font size and if you insert no text it is forgotten. I may end up liking the behavior, so if the behavior is by design, cool. Observation 2 - In order to get a frame in AFPub, you have to click drag and then you have a persistent frame with or without text. Once a frame is created with or without text, the work area is jittery so long as the mouse text frame cursor is in the drawing/pasteboard area. If you move the tool cursor over to the page thumbnail area it immediately stops jittering. Moving the cursor back to the work area, the jitter reinitiates. I suspect the jitter is along scroll direction rather than having a side to side component. Strangely this behavior subsided in the time it took me to create this note and has not reoccurred through to the following day. For the record.

Staff MEB Posted October 8, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 8, 2018 Hi JonasTH, Welcome to Affinity Forums Sorry the delayer reply. Regarding your points: 1. Yes, this behaviour is by design. You have to click and drag to create the text frame with the dimensions you want before typing in/paste text. 2. I'm not seeing any jittering here. You said you were not able to replicate the issue the day after. Have you ever experienced it again in more recent Betas?
