jackamus Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 How do I stop AD automatically from adding margins when I change a page from A4 to A3 when the original A4 had been selected not to have margins. It seems to default to adding margins. Ideally I would like to set up AD to default to 'no margins' at all regardless of changing page size.

firstdefence Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I think you've found a bug jackamus because when changing document size and margins not checked it will add them regardless of print dimension used. in Affinity Designer Beta 1.7 the A3 template has margins selected by default, unchecking them resizes the document without margins. 1.7 beta has the Preset option now so just create a document and call it A3 - No Margins and use that from then on.

jackamus Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 Should I report this as a bug even though AD1.7 has a preset for it? Quote If voting made any difference it wouldn't be allowed!

Dan C Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Hi jackamus Thanks for your report, this has already been logged against Affinity Designer, however I'm seeing similar results in the beta so I'll bump this thread with your report and inform our devs of this now!

jackamus Posted April 23, 2019 Author Share Posted April 23, 2019 I'm glad to be of some 'positive' service as recently I have been a bit negative about AD.
