Another interesting byproduct of this bug: If you make a 350x350 ellipse and square, Align them horizontally and vertically, then divide, one would expect the result to be a circle and 4 half pipe pieces. But the half pipe pieces are a singular unit, even though there ends do not meet.

That is it exactly! And some bonus problems. Thanks guys for your listening and bringing it up to the devs. I'm continuing my project with the corners thing trick, but I won't lie its weird to have a "rectangular" object still on the board. Especially if i need to utilize pathfinders in the future, i wonder how it interacts with a cornered object. 🤔

Shouldnt they mathematically both be the same in this case? a 350x350 square and a 350x350 circle.

This here runs better, but not ideally. It creates 2 things, a single object with each of the four quarter pipe shapes, and the circle. Ideally, it should create 5 pieces. One for each quarter pipe shape, and one for the circle. I could then delete 2 of the corners and have the shape im going for, albeit much shorter lol

I'm not disagreeing with you, but they intersect and therefor should be split. Because they are both exactly 350 across, they intersect exactly. But for some reason, Affinity is using the action to create a duplicate of the ellipse, and leave the rectangle intact. If the ellipse is overlapping the rectangle is 351, it works as intended, but has two extra pixels on the side when i delete the bottom half.

Why is it if i create a rectangle of 350x700, and a elipse of 350x350, align them over each other horizontally and vertically, then use the Divide option, it creates a second duplicate circle and does nothing to the rectangle? I'd like to chop the lower portion off and have a rounded tip to the rectangle.
