FMS Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 When I create a shape, like with the Donut tool and next add text to that shape: I no longer can change the color of the shape (at least it's not clear to me how) the text has a background color (white) that I can't remove (at least it's not clear how) The transparent inside of the donut is is filled with the donut's background color (no longer transparent) Same happens with the other shapes (except what I say in the 3rd bullit, this only happens with the donut shape) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me this works even with a donut, once you've converted it to a Text Frame (Layer > Convert to Text Frame). -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Chris_K Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Hi FMS I't not super clear how you added text to the shape if you converted it to a text frame either manually or by clicking on the shape with a text tool the you will need a combination of the t~ext Frame panel and the Character Panel to edit these attributes cheers Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMS Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 Hi Chris, I downloaded the latest beta version 1.7.0.58 and can no longer reproduce my issues. I guess the first 2 bullits was about not knowing how to, the third issue (filling inside of donut) seems to have been fixed in the new release.
