For people who are correctly running any of the Serif apps on Linux using Wine, contributing to appDB would be a great help.

Thanks for letting us know disabling this option resolved the issue for you @GenewalDesign - though I'd like to request an Affinity log file from your machine, so I can report this to our developers with your specific setup information.
Can you please open Windows Run (Windows Key + R) then paste the following string and press OK, depending on the Affinity installer type you are using:
Affinity Store (MSIX) & Windows Store:
%USERPROFILE%\.affinity\Photo\2.0\Affinity Store (EXE) :
%appdata%\Affinity\Photo\2.0\In the window that opens, please select log.txt, then attach this to your reply here.
Many thanks in advance
Thanks Dan, here is the file.

Just a guess, but do you ever use multiple monitors, and if so are all of them attached and powered-on right now? If you do use multiple, and some are missing, the application may be displaying things on those other monitors.
If you're on a Mac, you might try the menu Window > Zoom to see if that helps.
It looks like it's a problem with hardware acceleration. Disabling it resolves the issue.

Hello,
I'm trying to open jpegs in Photo, then AP is stuck in inifinite loading.
It's still usable : I can open menus, click on buttons, but my picture won't load at all.
And when I try to create a new document, nothing happens too.
Disabling the hardware acceleration resolves the problem. I'm using a computer with a dual GPU (Intel/Nvidia).

This appears to be the same issue as AF-1541.
See: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/195968-font-rendered-and-exported-differently/Another case of a font created with Fontself Maker with excessive multi-mapping.
The problems with excessive multi-mapping are discussed in the above thread.So basically the problem is in the fonts.
Yes, some other applications may handle this, but creating fonts like this is just dumb.
Which is why Adobe strongly discourages it, and Google Fonts outright prohibits it.But why this problem is only in Windows and not in MacOS?

I know that my bug is not a critical issue, but I wasn't expecting so much of a wait 😅

We need Affinity Video!
But not the Affinity suite flooded with "Canva" design assets or something like Dreamweaver...
It's not like they never developed a software like that : maybe using the source code of MoviePlus is a good start.

It's okay @Ash, you don't have to precise and justify everything, you're already guilty for some folks here.
No matter what you say, they'll say the opposite.

On March 26, should be declared as the Day of Appeal to Motive in the United Kingdom, and a plaque should be inaugurated on the server hosting the Affinity forum.

Can we be little bit more optimistic and hopeful?!

Any person stumbling upon this topic would get the impression that Affinity has just switched to a premium subscription starting today with no turning back, otherwise the staff will come to your place, uninstall everything, and raid your fridge while they're at it.

You really don't get it, do you? This is the difference between a company that cares for the artists and creatives and a company that just pretends to do so. Hearing it from a news post in a social media group or getting an email from Serif would have made a huge difference. The responses on the Facebook groups I moderate are very clear and apart from a handful of users, the majority are angry with the way this was handled. The speech on YouTube is a prime example of how not to do it. Those are hollow words that are contradicted by his body language from the start...
Or maybe I just have a different opinion, it's something common among humans.
One day, two hours, they would have released the PR at the same time as Canva, people would have been upset in any case.
The information came out 3AM GMT and Affinity confirmed it like 4 hours later. And it's not like they denied it right way.

You would think Affinity customers being sold to another company would be a pretty big deal, maybe that would warrant an announcement prior to the buyer breaking the news pissing everyone off?
And?
Getting the information one day earlier would change something?"Oh no, our users on our forums are upset, let's call back Canva and cancel everything!"

Are you telling me there's no one at Serif in another time zone that could address the issue as it hits the forum or the social media sites? Even the Facebook groups I moderate and admin have spread moderators out in different time zones to react quickly enough.
I think anyone can wait one or two hours before getting an answer about that. It's not a moderation issue or anything else.

The main issue is the lack of communication by Serif on this topic. The social media groups are going ablaze with wild speculations, and fears about the issues mentioned here - genAI, subscription, training AI on users' work, etc.
It's 7AM, at least wait before everyone comes in the office

It's going to be a loooong day for the staff today. Lots of questions are coming here!

I'm diving into this thread, I saw some really interesting things. If Photo can support out of the box any JSX script, that would be awesome. I have to use the San Jose app because of the script support, and it's a real nightmare.

Apologies for the delayed response - thanks for the files and further testing conducted!
I can confirm I'm seeing the same behaviour and therefore I'm logging this as a bug with our developers now.
I hope this helps
Thanks Dan! I hope the hotfix will come out quickly.

@Dan C I just opened my file in the macOS version of AD and the tracking is good. It must be a bug from the Windows version of AD, then.

It's uploaded! I included the 3 styles to be sure you can test it totally.

Are they fonts you can share, or are they commercial fonts you had to pay for?
It's commercial fonts.

A quick progress update from the devs would be great.
