Yeah, CTRL does allow you to "CUT" and "MOVE" but what we're after is the ability to "COPY" and "MOVE." There does not to seem to be any combination of keys to allow for THAT.

So, I think I figured it out:

I'm trying to "colorize" just a part of a transparent PNG logo. In Pshop, I just create a color rectangle above the layer in question and over the part I want colorized, press ALT between the layers and it works. I know there's got to be an easy way to do this, but I just can't figure it out. Here's a better description of what I'm trying to do:

Ha! Yes, I need to read more carefully 🙂 Thanks everyone for your help, much appreciated!

I get this: And About says: and I've DL'ed and installed this: How to fix?

How can I reset the scale in this group to the original scale? It accidently was scaled in a previous action. I figure there's a way, but I just can't find it. Thanks!

I think your problem is different than mine. I would definitely check your hard drive to see if there are any problems with it. Also, check to make sure you have write privileges to the folder you're saving too. Try saving to the desktop and see if that doesn't work. Or, try saving to my documents folder.

I ended up uninstalling designer, restarting, re-installing designer, restarting and have been using it for hours without the problem. Not sure if it's gone, but I haven't seen it yet.

I typically have to restart my computer to install the update.

I've seen this too. I end up restarting my machine and then I can install. Maybe that helps.

Be nice if there was a fix.

I, too am experiencing similar problems. What is wrong with Affinity's saving scheme that it can't save files to places others can?

This is getting ridiculous. I've been an Adobe user for 12 years and have not seen this behavior. When working in Designer, I frequently (once per hour this happens) press the Save key and Affinity Designer tells me it cannot save and must close. It doesn't try twice or anything-- it just CLOSES-- LOSING valuable work. There is a recovery file, but many times it's very old requiring much work to get back to where I started. Can someone please let me know if this is fixable? Or do I need to look elsewhere for a program that works like it should? Sorry, I don't see Dropbox as the culprit here as I've tried other drives. What's up?
