Now, I see the align button there, but it's an open curve, so the align does not have any effect.

Internet search found me this thread from 2020: And this is my result in 2.6.3 in 2025:

Didn't notice this was archived...

It didn't crash! The stroke finished and the program came alive after about 15 minutes! 😂 EDIT: Zooming out, the strokes are faster... so is it a zoom issue?

I don't have a very advanced file, but I wanted to use the sculpt mode to fix some things. Now I'm on my third stroke or so, and the first two strokes were slow, but now I sitting here writing this message while waiting for the program to figure out the third stroke... I have a 64gb Ryzen 9 7900 so I don't think it should take this long (I really hope it hasn't crashed, we'll see).

I should have perhaps specified that this is Affinity Designer V2. But interesting... I did not set "passthrough" myself, so Affinity did that for me and that is wrong? Setting the group back to normal now works as expected.

Look at the top stroke. It should be a solid purple, but it clearly fades to white as it becomes transparent. Why is that? It doesn't seem to matter what color I set the mask object to.

I always forget the location of this button and always have to do an internet search for find how to achieve this... 😑

Here? Not sure what I'm looking for...

Also, when I have disabled the visibility and editability of all channels except alpha and do a select all the copy, why does it still copy all the channels to the clipboard?

2024 and I just got this in Affinity Photo 2.4.2 😑 (Select text and Edit - Defaults - Revert worked.)

🤣🤣🤣 This is from the company who brag posted "ain't nobody acquiring us". I hope nobody trusts a word of this. It's literally from the VC playbook: https://mastodon.cloud/@designthinkingcomic/112172752241749103

For the doubters, as with any VC funded company (who also dabbles in AI), this is what will inevitably happen: https://americandialect.org/2023-word-of-the-year-is-enshittification/ So now it's only a question about WHEN, but the shitty thing is that Affinity quite recently denied there even was a question of IF: Now that their true colors have been revealed, you can't trust anything anyone from that company says ever again and we can safely assume that the timeline to things going down the drain has been accelerated. https://mastodon.cloud/@designthinkingcomic/112172752241749103 So... guess I'm forced to look at Inkscape once again for an Illustrator alternative. At least there's some more options for Photoshop alternatives. Not really any alternatives for Indesign, though? At least not for Linux (which I'm probably moving to in the next few years due to the similar crap happening to Windows).

Is this an "optimization" or a setting?
