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.

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.

are these variable fonts?
No. Very classic fonts, packed as .otf.

I compared the kerning of some fonts between Designer and Inkscape, and the difference is huge.
Here are my 3 fonts inside inkscape, typed as is :
And here are the same 3 fonts, same text, inside Designer.
Space between letters is way too important, but the one for "M" letters really stands out. I don't understand why Inkscape kerning is well balanced, and Designer... well, is totally wrong.
Maybe because of my fonts ?

Is it still relevant and/or wanted?
The OP seems to have a workflow where “Scale with object” set to ON would be their preferred situation – so they don’t have to keep setting it to ON.
But they also seem to dismissing outright that the people who might want the opposite would have to go through the same ‘pain’ that the OP has to currently go through, without considering whether the OP is in the majority or the minority (they just assume that they are in the majority).
No mention of an option that the user can change as they need it, just a request for change that ignores other people’s workflows.
It’s basically, as I read it: “I want it changed and I don’t care about the people who don’t want it changed.”
I'd say wanted. The best solution would be to add a parameter in the options, which every time a new artwork is created, the setting is ON. It's a 50/50, if you don't want it always on, don't activate that parameter.

Bumping.
@Pšenda that issue has been discussed a lot of times but does the devs look the archive forums? If that issue was discussed before, and still relevant today, we have to bring feedback about it once again.

Does it select also child objects nested into clipping masks?

I’m bumping that feedback.
Can we hope to have the split screen function on iOS? Slide over is OK but it hides half of the toolbar on left or right side when I use it.

But why this problem is only in Windows and not in MacOS?
