imagineering4 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I've been illustrating for over 25 years, mostly with Freehand. Can't bear Illustrator or the Company that makes it. Affinity Designer is the first program I've come across that may be able to substitute for Freehand but am finding too many bugs. Opening a 4 page pdf document, making modifications, then AD hangs during the Exporting to PDF. Trying to highlight text, can drop cursor into text, but dragging does not create blue highlight.

Staff Sean P Posted July 12, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hi imagineering4, Welcome to the Affinity Forums! Would it be possible for you to record a couple of short videos using QuickTime that demonstrate the issues you are having please? And if possible could you attach the PDF document that you use to demonstrate it please. That way we can see what exact actions you are taking that may lead to the crash!

imagineering4 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hi Sean This is just the text issue. The text is off the artboard (above it). Doesn't seem to matter what font it is. Doesn't always happen. Thanks!

Staff Sean P Posted July 15, 2019 Staff Share Posted July 15, 2019 Ahh I see what you mean! This is a known issue and occurs when text is not on an artboard and an artboard is not visible. I'll get it bumped with development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
