Hi @Dan C I uploaded the two photos. I played around a bit and at first the cropped photo didn't cause the crash 🤪 but after inserting some random stuff it always caused a crash (even though I had a new, empty document after restarting each time). So I'm confused now... I'm using Publisher 1.10.6 (on MacOs 12.6.1) I tried both methods of introducing the image to Publisher and they both had the issue. It's not a terrible problem to me since it's anyway better to crop it in Publisher (there's a reason why I use it 🤓) I just hoped it could be helpful since I observed this behaviour. Many thanks 😊

Hello @Dan C I have the same problem (in Affinity Publisher) and the preview app did not fix it for me unfortunately. But my photo is not so private that I can't share it so if you like to investigate I can send this photo to you. What may also be helpful (for anybody with this problem) is that the photo was cropped on my iPhone and then shared via airdrop to my Mac. This caused a crash. I then reverted the photo to the original on my phone, again sent it via airdrop to my Mac and there was no problem when importing. So I guess the iPhone edit is causing the problem. Kind regards, Malena

@Old Bruce thank you.. so at least I know it's not me 😅

@G13RL Oh thank you so much it works!!! That's a real game changer for me, and so simple 🪄 I guess the problem with the text is caused by the particular font? I tried some different ones which work. 'American Typewriter' causes problems whatever I do.

@Lee D sure. You'll find everything in the document boolean.afdesign

Hi there, I'm regularly having the following problem when I join two objects: 'holes' are also displayed in colour even though they shouldn't be. I have tried all possible varieties in terms of order of selecting items and the order which item is in the front or back. Sometimes this helps, but I couldn't find any pattern how I could avoid this problem. I might also mention: when I export as SVG and open in another program the holes are not displayed in colour. On the example below I also have some strange thing going on with some of the letters (it was a text transformed to curves). I have no idea why this is happening and wether the two things have something to do with each other or not. There are no groups, layers whatsoever.. I hope somebody will be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong, thank you in advance! Malena
