It is confusing to users to do things this way. If you want to use it this way, there should be some warning and settings for automation. It made me move to another drawing program (for this task) just because I could not figure this out.

If I make a printscreen then in Affinity Photo (or Designer, Publisher not tested) and New From Clipboard. Next use one of the selection tools. Select and hit Del. Now everything is deleted (also not selected). Same if I would go for Ctrl + J, everything will be copied over (also not selected) to a new layer. I tried to uninstall Affinity and reinstall. Same bug occured. And it does not happen when you just import an image. But if you save your PrintScreen as affinity format and reopen, it still will have the bug.
