garfybeds Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 I'm experiencing issues when selecting text and then wanting to add a stroke - the option for stroke is available in the Style menu, but no colour option is available. I've seen a stroke colour selector on the top bar before now - although not sure if that is just for text box as opposed to Artistic text. The only way I could get to set colour is to go in to Character, where I could adjust it under Decorations. This does seem to be overly hidden for the stroke function. I'm running version 1.7.0.612 on MacOSX 10.14.1.
Old Bruce Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 Check the last item in Styles it is called Outline. Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.5.7 | Affinity Photo 2.5.7 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.7 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
garfybeds Posted November 15, 2018 Author Posted November 15, 2018 but that is a work-around - where is the colour selector for Stroke?
