Something is happening in Publisher that is driving me mad and very frustrated, for some reason it seems to change the surrounding background of document and the background of the page to grey, when it does this, features are limited and I can't for instance duplicate pages and there is no obvious way to return to the "black" surround background with full functionality, sometimes I can get it go back by just clicking on the background but other times now. This is just started happening, and this was an existing document as well. Why is it doing it, and most importantly, how do I stop it doing it. Feels like a bug rather than a feature.

I can confirm that this "workaround" seems to solve the problem. It's a bit of a pain if you forget of course, but seeing as resolving this doesn't seem a priority for Serif, it's all we have.

I've got the opposite now, can't get it to NOT happen, even after a number of restarts of the app, so stuck having to export loads of artboards individually.

So a couple of V.2 updates and and exports still this isn't fixed (no surprise) at this point. I reall feel quite annoyed that V2 didn't address this, and yet I was still dumb enough to pay for the upgrade. FIX IT FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!! The sunk-cost of using Affinity, with these issues is becoming less & less of a motivation to stay.

Yes mine's working now but I'm loathed to switch off my machine now, because it means I might not be able to export artboards in bulk again, until I've shut everything down multiple times.
-
Yes for some reason they seem unable to. Doesn’t inspire me at all to invest in their V2 software at all (even if I can accept the shockingly dire icon redesign - who seriously was asking for this?)

Yes I have a number of cloud services running, Dropbox all of the time. Google Drive, One Drive and Box at other times.

Yup, same old damn problem, try and change a folder from whatever it defaults to, and beachball of death. This time trying to select folder on Desktop. What a let-down. I was annoyed enough that they never fixed it on version 1, but to carry it over to V2 really dampens any enthusiasm to repurchase.

Hangs (beachball) when trying to save.
Barrowman replied to Barrowman's topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
Revisiting this as nothing has improved (what's happened to updates anyhow?), I can't even get beyond anything in dropbox folder now, before Affinity crashes. It doesn't do this when I export from Photoshop etc, so it's wholly Affinity that is giving me this problem. -

I suspect that too, caused no doubt by the awful Mac security settings which hound us at every action now. -
This happens in Photo as well, when going to save, export etc, intermittently as soon as the file dialog window opens, the beachball appears and never stops spinning, needs to be force quit. Then second time it works fine. Feels like you have to get the first time crash out of the way to be able to work in it without a problem thereon in.

Constant Beach balls and 100% CPU usage.

Thanks @stokerg I'll give that a shot!! -
Hi, I'm finding Designer more and more unusable due to the the amount of time it spends beachballing. I'll start working and everything is flowing wonderfully, suddenly it then starts beach-balling on the most innocuous of things, ie select something. Then it just becomes a total pain. I have a MacBook Pro 16" M1 MAX with 32GB of RAM. I does the same on my 13" M1 Macbook as well. Any idea what could be causing it, as it is a real pain, I used to love this app, but now I dread using it.
