MadMak Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Is there an option to open file in Publisher if you work in Designer or Photo? Also, while in Publisher, if you choose Designer or Photo persona, other personas like Export persona are missing. Any plans to get them integrated without starting Designer and Photo separately? retrograde 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 It worked fine for me when I right clicked in Finder and choose Open With Affinity Publisher. Designer files also opened fine when I opened from the dialog box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, we have such options as "File -> Edit in Designer" and "File -> Edit in Photo", but we don't have an option "File - > Edit in Publisher". If we had other personas like "Export persona" inside Publisher, that would be great. Isn't the idea of Studio Link that you don't have to jump between apps? That's why I am asking.

Bryce Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Okay. i thought you were asking about Publisher specifically. The open in Designer and Photo is just the buttons here as far as I understand. They just use the same interface now. The buttons are not in Designer or Photo. I think they are making Publisher the central app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadMak Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 So, if I want to export an icon, I have to start Designer and there is no way to go back, except saving the file and opening it with Publisher from a folder? Can we have at least an option "File -> Edit in Publisher" added to Designer and Photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure myself if it will though. @MattP was this considered yet? Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!

I hope it will be ASAP because once a document open in Publisher has been opened via Edit in Designer or Edit in Photo, there is no way to go back to Publisher to save any changes made to it. Save in Designer or Photo saves the Publisher page as a new document, so that doesn't work. Critically, this means there is no way to save any unsaved changes made in Publisher to the document. Also, since currently Publisher's Photo Persona does not seem to support third party plugin filers (like NIK), there is no way to use Edit in Photo for that & include those filter effects in the Publisher document that I can see.
