WORTHYimage Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Delete and backspace do not work when editing text on a curve. You have to drag select the area you want to edit and delete it or replace it with the correction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MacBook I'm using at this moment does not have a Backspace key but, in both Designer and Publisher, the Delete key works fine with "artistic text" on a curve. I'm using MacOS 10.13.6, Designer ß 1.7.0.4, and Publisher ß 1.7.0.249. Using macOS 10.13.6 and Publisher 1.9.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_heibu Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 @cubesquareredux: You have no „Backspace" key, but you may use fn+backspace instead. This emulates the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This emulates the key. I have the extended keyboard, there are two delete keys. The delete key under the fn key is the "backspace" key I was referring to. However, the main point is that trying to delete added a blank space rather than deleting the last character typed.

mac_heibu Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I know, @Worthy Image!. My reply refers to cubesqareredux. But did you try to restart Publisher and try this in a newly created document? WORTHYimage and cubesquareredux 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will restart my Mac and try again. It’s not an urgent matter, I just wanted to let the Affinity Publisher team beware of the issue. cubesquareredux 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_heibu Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Yes, just try it. I can’t reproduce the issue with both (extended and small) keyboard on my iMacs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I see that now in your video clip, thanks – but, as I said, I don't have the same problem in either Publisher or Designer.

The OS is so complicated these days that perhaps no explanation will be forthcoming! Using macOS 10.13.6 and Publisher 1.9.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
