Recommended Posts

  • Staff

Status: Public Beta
Purpose: Stability and General Testing
Requirements: None

Hi, we have a preview of Publisher build 167 now available. It is currently provided as a manual download from the link above.

As this is a beta it is considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity where you may be adversely affected by the application failing, including the total loss of any documents. 

We hope you enjoy the product, and as always, if you've got any problems installing or running up, please don't hesitate to post in this thread.

Any problems actually using this version please make a new topic in this forum and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Please feel free to leave general suggestions and comments in the Discussion Forum. Many thanks for your continued feedback.

Update went without a problem here.

Can anyone explain what 'Thin Space handling' is?

Guess what. Still getting setup failed. Not got a lot of hair left!

Tried restarting.

I notice there is nothing about curing setup failed in updates and fixes. Perhaps they've not noticed!

 

Hi jobeyb

Can you go to %temp%/AffinitySetup in file explorer and in the folders see if there is a Setup.log and a SetupUI.log you can attach for us to look into. We are aware of the problem and are trying to track it down

Cheers

If I will choose the options BOLD or ITALIC, after I have changed the color of (a part of the)  text the "buttons" of these options are "down" as a result of the change of color.

Why does the fact that I changed the color influence these buttons? 

Please post this again into a new thread. This thread is for installing problems or difficulty running the application.
