Doesn't affect the outcome — doesn't work either way in Publisher (and as a side note, works with or without a space in Designer).

One last update! I've figured it out. Typing in the unit causes the calculation not to work. In other words, if you have an object at 5 in and you type in +.115 in that will not work. But if you just put in +.115 it will. This isn't the expected behaviour for me, especially as you can type in the unit in Affinity Designer and it'll properly perform the calculation (and it's nice sometimes to have a document in one format—inches, for example—but then do a calculation when you add or remove millimetres or other to an object's size or position).

Hey everyone... Further to this, it looks like it's an intermittent issue (if that). It was driving me crazy on the day that I posted, and had been happening a few days prior too. But since a reboot and relaunching the app, it's been working fine... knock on wood. I'll update again if it crops up again, but hopefully it doesn't.

Since the most recent version (1.7.0.305), I've noticed that I'm no longer able to do additions/other calculations in the Transform studio panel using the number row on my keyboard (typing in [whatever the point position is] + 0.25in and then hitting return just clears the entered calculation), but it still works from the number keypad. Has anyone else run into this issue? Update: actually, I take that back! I'm not able to get it to work from the keypad either right now.

Confirming that this is fixed in 1.7.0.270. Nice work, and thank you!

Will do. Than you!

Document is in rough shape right now and I'm on deadline to wrap it up... but here's a video where you can see the issue in action. Text_Frame.mov

Yep! PDF result and settings attached here.

Not overlapping in my case. Clicking on the frame in the Layers palette is fine, but the moment you go to double-click on a word or select a paragraph a different frame will often suddenly become the selected frame.

Same here! Pretty frustrating when you're trying to select a paragraph in one text box and it seems to really want me to edit a neighbouring text box instead. I've had this happen between pages as well, and only since 1.7.0.257.

I've stripped the file down to just the affected page. Weirdly, I was able to output the PDF without any image issues with previous beta (K only, no appearance glitches), but the most recent 1.7.0.257 now outputs the image as it appears in the screenshot above. K_Issue.zip

Ah-ha! Took me a minute to track it down but yes, I found it. And deselecting it renders the image properly—but means it no longer exports as K only. Looks like it's just a rendering glitch in the app—with K selected (as it was by default when I imported the image) it renders incorrectly in the app but exports as it should.

I just tried placing a greyscale image inside a CMYK document but it ends up with a weird overlay/fill effect. If I paste the image in from Affinity Photo it appears normally (though it's probably being converted to full CMYK rather than just K). Anyone run into this, or just a bug in the current (1.7.0.238) version?

I noticed today when creating a border above text using Decorations under styles and noticed that it doesn't seem to be previewing colours correctly. See the attached screenshots for the difference in how the colour is rendered between the Decorations section and the Colour & Decorations section. It does work properly in the placed style—it's just the preview that is incorrect.
