[Expanding Stroke, strokes are changing]

This is a serious issue - hope there will be an easier solution soon.

My work around to save your current work is to do the following:

Make a copy of your working file as a backup.
Do a test line stroke in the same document- 
Convert all stroke weight to make it slightly thicker and then expand stroke.
eg 1.2pt becomes 1.8pt
Once you get the thickness you need -- slight all the affected strokes and expand the paths.
You can set the desired expanded stroke as a style to quickly change all the lines for stroke expansion. 

Check all expanded strokes in the document again to make sure conversion is good with no weird glitches or artifacts.

 

Hope this is of help

[Shift Click to add selection]

Hi friends. Using Affinity Photo 2- So there is no Shift Click to select more areas when using Magic Wand tool but the work around is to hold down RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON and click to select more. areas. Hope this is helpful.

[Contact Sheet?]

No it’s not possible to create a contact sheet in Affinity Photo, although there is a nice app called XnViewMP which can create contact sheets and it’s free. In XnViewMP it’s under the Create Menu, kind of obvious but thought I’d fast track ya lol!

This is so much better than what comes in Photoshop! Thanks for the recommendation!
