Philcinbath Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 In Indesign there is an easy to find option to set marinas within a text frame Publisher help refers to a text frame panel, but thus far I cannot find it, so am unable to set mm margins between frame and text.

evtonic3 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 This panel should be visible by default since so many people are having trouble finding it and it looks to be a very used panel. rjvela82 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, it was very easy for me to find its View > Studio menu entry when I type "Frame" into the Help menu search field. Once I opened it from the menu as a floating panel, I decided that for me the best place for it was in the 'left studio' tab group, along with the Pages & Assets panels, so I dragged it there. I have done the same with the Table Studio panel, & probably will make other changes as well. As I have done with the other Affinity apps, I also made a custom keyboard shortcut for "Hide Left Studio." That allows me to quickly show or hide that whole Studio area as needed. pioneer 1 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.4.1 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 Affinity Photo 1.10.8; Affinity Designer 1.108; & all 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all useful panels are displayed your document will disappear.... rjvela82 1 Quote -- Window 11 - 32 gb - Intel I7 - 8700 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 -- iPad Pro 2020 - 12,9 - 256 gb - Apple Pencil 2 -- iPad 9th gen 256 gb - Apple Pencil 1 -- Macbook Air 15" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, on my 27" iMac it is hard to find an arrangement that has just all the 'most used' panels visible at the same time & still have more than a tiny area left for the document.

mac_heibu Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 You are showing us the paragraph panel, not the text frame panel. And: You can change UI colors in Publisher‘s prefereces panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having them available in tabs is not the same as having all of them visible at the same time. If you dragged each of those tabbed studios out so they were all visible without switching between tabs, I doubt there would even be room for all of them, much less leaving any screen space for your document.

Philcinbath Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Its a bug!
