Glyphs Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 A little slow, but it works. I was able to open Affinity Publisher while the update was being installed, without any error message, though. I force-quit it, so I don't know what the result would have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Gibert Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Perfect update. It took two long minute pauses while extracting the files (Afraid of crash but no, simply early in the morning and updater still sleepy :-P) and even reopened the document I had open before updating (Opened in purpose to test it) Patrick Connor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WendoverMan Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Auto update worked for me for 140 build but perhaps the update window could come in front of welcome window? I nearly missed it! Pleased also that print preview has been fixed and booklet printing works with everything coming out the right way up. Previously in a four page booklet the inside pages were upside down compared with the front and back pages. It's getting there. Thank you!

Uncle Mez Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Hello ! On my side it's pops well and i'm happy but the size is not that small at all (i'm already using version .139 on MacOS) its display 323.2MB of download when the initial setup for .139 is 306MB ! Maybe i'm missing something here and about the product but wanted to leave my input, may it help in some areas. Blessings !

That means it "thinks" you are on a different version to either 1.7.0.133 or 1.7.0.139 so neither of the incrementals are appropriate. If it's not too late please dont install .140 and check your version. Alternatively if you were/are really are on build .139 then could you put Affinity Publisher in the recycle bin, redownload 1.7.0.139 from here and try again to see what size it offers please.

Staff Patrick Connor Posted October 4, 2018 Author Staff Share Posted October 4, 2018 @Arnaud Mez Having discussed this with the developers, this can happen for 2 other reasons the package had been tweaked or edited in any way by you so that the files it contains are in any way different from the ones we expect, so the delta is not appropriate. The delta was downloaded and extracted and then fails to apply and then the full download is done instead. In this case the 300MB download would have been after an initial smaller download and extraction process, followed by the large download (and extraction). So it is quite possible that you were on build .139 but if you had edited any of the package files or if the smaller delta update failed to apply itself then that would cause what you observed.

Oups ! that's bad... Well, you will see my actual status in the attached screenshots. Looks strange to me too but i will do as you instructed but won't get back with fresh news before couples of hours ... would say 5 to 6h at least, internet in my country is not that fast so having to download massive packages makes it kind of impossible for me to do soemthing else on the network until the down is finished (if i want to avoid failure and many other problems) ... but will do that and revert here.

Okay i see ! 1- when it tried to update the software displayed 91KB of download size, then spend some second on extracting then ... switched to the bigger download not saying anything so i thought it was normal. 2- i have added my needed stuffs such as color palettes, brushes to my APub but after install only, could it be the possible cause of that issue. 3- i'm not good at coding (i code like an unborn human) nor all the software tweaking stuffs, the only IT and computer i know is when it comes to setup a full server environment or architecture and play with things like switches etc... so ... software/package tweaking/dev etc. stuff is not what i know and will never be (i hope) what i like. ... No problem i will follow your instruction and maybe this will help us all to understand the issue and correct it.

As long as you added them through the UI in the app this is fine. I meant tweaking the installed files (in Applications). It's good that the installer has this fallback and frankly I don't need you to do any more checking for now thanks, there will be plenty more updates before release and if internet is slow where you are this testing can wait until there are real benefits like there will be in build .141.
