Cheers and thanks for all your hard work so far, George I think so. Is this the one to do with the ESC key and fullscreen mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelpsalt Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Minor question but is it possible to delete the MAS version and just run the beta? I mean will it know that I'm an authentic user still? Main reason for this is clicking on files and them defaulting to the MAS version. I know I could probably just change default behaviour but I have a OCD streak about deleting unused apps. Cheers. PS) can't wait for publisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi kelpsalt, Unfortunately, the beta version needs to see a valid Mac App Store version installed in order to know that you're a customer and allow you to run it, sorry :( kelpsalt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smallreflection Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hey guys, for some reason I'm getting tons of crashes with the current beta. Perhaps it's stemming from beginning files in 1.2.1, opening them some in the new beta, then going back to 1.2.1 after having issues? But often I'm getting crashes every couple minutes. Uploading a couple files here. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tss7izt6r87igbc/AAAvmjy9litv7_v4aIlBewwqa?dl=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallreflection Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Hey guys, I've added several other crash report rtf files to that DropBox link as well. Hopefully that'll be of some help. If no one else is seeing this it may be an issue with my files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MattP Posted July 8, 2015 Author Staff Share Posted July 8, 2015 Thanks for this - I noticed that your first crashes were from the swatch panel and the second crashes were from something to do with snapping... I'll try to look into them - but they're not very common crash sites, which is odd... :S smallreflection 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorkboycomics Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I hadn't checked the recent betas and I don't think I overlooked it in previous versions, but THANK YOU!!!!! I see resizing is now available in the Export... window in BOTH Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo!! This is the one feature (Save for Web resizing in Photoshop) that I couldn't seem to find in other apps and was frequently needing to create a smaller version of hi res images for web postings and was stuck having PS as my only option. Thanks again, and thank you for making it work in both!!! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00Ghz Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 what about a clone tool & off canvas space? :) Any progress on those?. Artboards by themselves don’t do much.
