I bet they will run like Capture One. Subscription plan + fixed fee to own the CURRENT version. Also, integrate some Canva templates and resources. Which is good. As long as I will make money with it, I will buy Affinity. While owning something sounds cool, renting is also OK. For ex, I own V1, now I also own V2, and when V3 comes out, we will probably all own that too, always using latest versions, never going back to previous, because compatibility issues - resulting in a boatload of versions in your account that you never use. So if a sub price is justified, I would probably just subscribe instead of buying every version for a full price. While I do understand some people, who still use PS CS6, I am not able to do that, as I (and probably many others) need the latest tools for a better/faster workflow, rendering previously owned apps "useless". For those who want it as a hobby, there will be a fixed price for the current version or you can just get alternatives.

yeah but even if you have bleed, it won't export bleed as raster :))))) It's like that for AGES. i've posted in 2021 or 2020 about this. Probably will be fixed in V 5.0

Well, nothing?

Because it happens randomly... This morning I tried to open 3 files, 2 opened. then 7 and 5 opened. Files are not locked, and open individually. I have tried the SAME files now, and all opened. This is as random as the pressing export to export, yet nothing happens bug.. I will try to take a video of it next time.

Whenever I select 3 files on the desktop and right click open with designer (PDF), it opens 2.. If I select 6-7, it opens 4. Seriously, it's annoying AF and it's been around for quite some time. Photoshop opens them fine, so it's not a Mac Finder thing.. Intel Macbook 16", latest OS.

They messed up the delete in publisher too. Great start! I've noticed it after 3 clicks, as I had to delete the 3rd layer after startup.

This happens a lot of times even with simple shapes like rectangles that have strokes, then modified with the contour tool.. Even tho there is only one point before expanding stroke. All other corners are OK, but there is always that one weirdo.. Screen Recording 2023-08-11 at 11.00.38.mov

Not willing to mess up my files with beta, as I have a LOT of work at the moment.. But yes, I still use the last Intel Mac so it may be intel related. Will wait out the 2.2 and see, as (luckily) this only happened with this artboard. Was sweating a bit, as I had to send the file ASAP and couldn't do anything about it to export.

If you enable that, some PDF will be incompatible with other apps. When I first jumped to Designer, I had to send my print partner a lot of experimental recipes to figure out what works and what not. Advanded features was what caused the issues (files were pixelated, just when you import a stock vector image that is made in Illustrator, and it converts to raster). But the Crash is mostly random, as the first time I managed to export the file, then a lot of crashes after that (had to move the text a little bit up), then worked when convert was off, now not working whatever I do. So it's random.

Not working anymore not even with convert disabled.. You can see my recipe in the video. Also saving to desktop. Crashes even if I select save as. And only this artboard. Screen Recording 2023-07-18 at 14.33.33.mov

My last nerves are dying with this app. No matter what I do, I can't export the file as "PDF + bleed + convert color space" without constant crash. I have already exported this same design multiple times in different dimensions, with same recipe, and worked OK. If I unselect convert color space, it exports. Why? TEST.afdesign

2023, V2, and shortcuts are still set wrong by default :))) Had to manually change.

Cool. Hope it doesn't take long.. you should release hotfixes not "major" version updates.

I just want these serious bugs to be fixed.. That's all. We report them on time, give details, admins log them, yet somehow they always manage to screw it up. We give valuable info back to them, other companies have to pay testers for, and still they fail.
