walt.farrell Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 The Windows Help for Publisher (1.7.0.293), when describing the Swatches Panel, talks about creating and using System Palettes. But on Windows the Affinity applications have only Document and Application Palettes, not System Palettes: Quote The following types of palette exist within Affinity Publisher: Document—these palettes are saved within the current document. Application—these palettes are saved within Affinity Publisher. These palettes are available to any Affinity Publisher document. System—these palettes are saved to your operating system. These palettes are available within Affinity Publisher and other applications installed on your system. PANTONE®—these palettes are based on PANTONE® Colours. These palettes are available to any Affinity Publisher document There are other mentions of System Palettes in that section, too. And also in the Help for Global Colors: Quote If you're importing a document palette containing global colours as a System or Application palette, the global colours will be converted to standard colours. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Staff Jon P Posted April 25, 2019 Staff Share Posted April 25, 2019 Hi Walt, Thanks for picking up on this, I'll take note - the help is still due to have an internal review so I wouldn't be surprised if there are other issues in it. walt.farrell 1 Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just noticed that the same error is present in the Designer Help for the released version, 1.6.5.123 (aka .135). So this isn't a new problem, nor exclusive to Publisher. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

RISC OS Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 The Help says as follows: To show/hide the left or right Studio: From: the View menu, click Show Left Studio or Show Right Studio. I gather from a discussion with walt.farrell elsewhere on this Forum site that the above is an error in the Help file, in that it is correct for the Apple version but not for the Windows which I am using.
