There is an approach you may not be aware of, given that you only mentioned hiding. You can double-click the tab at the top of a studio panel and reduce that part of the studio stack to a single line. You can then click on any panel tab to expand that section of the studio.
Yes I know about that one, but it hides only in vertical way, not horizontal.
-
The only available option to "reduce" interface is only to hide it.
I would like to shrink the interface when I need to have more space on my work area. With just a button, all the studio windows are reduced to an icon, if you need to check the panels, just click on the icon, like on the iPad OS version.

OK, but I asked about restarting Windows. Still, if it's been happening for weeks, you probably have restarted Windows during that time. And it's probably not related to the recent (this week) removal of Internet Explorer from Windows (unless you're running an insider build of Windows).
So, sorry, but I'm out of ideas.
It’s maybe that, I think my Windows is an insider build.
If the help is using IE it explains that.
EDIT : My Windows is indeed an insider build, so it's just a side effect of the removal of IE. I'm just gonna press F for now.

Still seems to be working for me.
Did this just start recently? Does Restarting Windows help?
As a workaround, you can use https://affinity.help for now.
Restarting my AD did nothing. That issue happened for weeks, I used the website if I needed.

I should edit the title of the topic, but it will be too long to read.
The key element of that "bug" is "inside/outside of the artboard".
-
It happens only when I have an artboard, and my initial shape is outside of it.
I tried your manipulation, the first time when I'm inside the artboard : it behaves like in your video.
And when my clipping mask is outside the artbord, the stroke it moved outside of the clipping mask.
The dropdown menu doesn't display in my video, sorry.
-
I don't know if it is a bug or wanted by devs, but it's slightly annoying if you use clipping mask a lot.
Everytime I expand a stroke that I put inside another shape (clipping mask), the resulting shape moves outside the clipping mask, on top of the layer list.
And I have to get my new shape back into my clipping mask.

What can we expect from a 2.1 Beta? 😁
Gif creation?
Blend tool?
Autotrace?
A video editing app? 🤡

Besides the freezes, my AD is painfully slow on some big projects. I have one with LOTS of layers (I cannot count manually, and I put them in a group so the context menu doesn't help), and duplicate/move layers is getting very painful.
It's almost 2 SECONDS between the time I use the duplicate shortcut and the duplicate layers appears.
I'll quote myself, can a mod log that issue?

Updated to 2.0.4, same problem.
It must be a problem with the Google Drive app itself.

I've managed to recreate this locally and have logged the issue
What was the issue? Amazingly enough, my AD doesn't want to freeze today.
-
No change in 2.0.4.

Hi GenewalDesign,
I apologise for the delayed response.
Does this issue still occur with our latest build? (2.0.3)
Thanks
CThis issue happened too with that build.

Any developer update?

Switched the render mode to WARP, and the problem happened again.

If its just when zooming the prime candidate is the graphics driver. You can verify this by setting the renderer to Warp in preferences/performance.
Can you confirm the exact model of your graphics Card(s), their driver versions and the OS version pleaseAMD Radeon 5700 XT, 22.11.2, and Windows 11.

I think I can create a topic everyday for each freeze I get. Everytime when I'm zooming in/out.
More I use this software, more I'm telling me "You bought it too soon, it's not properly debugged"

I can see that you've created a separate bug post regarding this, we'll look into this as soon as we can. Please be aware as we’re approaching Christmas we have limited staff working so it may take some time.
Thanks for your answer.

I hope with the new update this problem will be fixed. I've been using for 40 minutes and everything works fine and no laggy effect selecting objects.
Sorry about that, but my software froze yesterday, and it's the same symptoms as usual. Tool switching takes a good second to happen, and my zooms are risky as it can freeze any time.
But as we didn't have any official answer, this problem is still not known by devs.
-
Do I have to pray every time I'm using the zoom tool? A quick answer would be great, Serif.
-
Same problem here, lags and sometimes it freezes. Not responding.



Feature Request : Shrink interface
in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products

If I want to do this quickly, I just hit tab. But it's not what i'm looking for : reducing the UI, not hiding it.
Another software I won't name, can do this the way I think : just click on the small double chevrons and the whole panel is reduced to icons.
