Bleed & Crop Marks Won't Work with Artboards in Affinity Designer

[JLion18]

How can I get crop marks while working with artboards?  I've added bleed to my document/artboards, but because artboards act like a mask, there is no way to extend my document to the bleed lines.

Any ideas?

Just make the image larger. You won't see it on the Artboard but it will be there.

I did. The PDF file I posted shows you what it does.

Here are the settings I used to get the image out past the artboard into the bleed.

Thank you for your help. I spent several hours trying to reduplicate what you had accomplished. 

It finally dawned on me not to use the Export Persona and to export one file at a time.  At that point it worked.

Is there a way to export multiple artboards at once with crop marks?

Perhaps, with a big caveat, you could open them in Publisher and export from there? I don't really know what it is you are trying to achieve, if you want the crop marks and can live without the bleed not showing using designer is possible but if you want the bleed showing you'll need to try using publisher. Just open your *.afdesign file in Publisher and try the different settings (convert Artboards to spreads first)
