Arrange by 'Selection Bounds' alignment bug
Cam replied to Cam's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Hi MEB, my apologies, you're correct. I opened up the MAS version to find out it works the same way as the Beta version. I'm not entirely sure why I thought it used to work differently. Thank you for the correction. :) -
In the latest beta I came across a bug when aligning one object to another by 'Selection Bounds'. It appears the arrange operation performs the alignment to the initial objects selection bounds and not to the updated selection bounds. For example, to horizontally align object B to object A, in previous versions I would select both objects and align object B by 'Selection Bounds' to the left or right side of object A > then click 'align centre' to align object B to the center of object A. However, in the last couple beta versions in order to do that I've had to click 'Done' after each alignment operation before applying another for the desired result. Hopefully my explanation above was clear, if not I've attached a screen recording of the alignment issue. Note: This issue appears for both horizontal and vertical alignment operations. Thanks.

Nudging bug with space + command zoom modifier
Cam replied to Cam's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
You're correct MEB, I should have clarified 'box/marquee selection' with space-cmd in my original post. Thanks. -
Nudging bug with space + command zoom modifier
Cam replied to Cam's topic in [ARCHIVE] Designer beta on macOS threads
Hi Lee, It happens in any scenario for me, a new document, open an existing document or with any type of object, be it text or a shape. The nudging bug triggers as long as I don't drop the object from selection before using the space+cmd zoom modifier. I recorded a quick screen capture of it in action.

Firstly, thank you for the adding the Space + Command zoom modifier shortcut - very handy. But it appears the nudging bug has reappeared again but only after using the zoom modifier shortcut. For example, if you nudge an object with the arrow keys (with or without holding the shift key), then zoom in on the canvas using the space + command zoom modifier and nudge the object again it will jump back to its original position. Thanks.

Yes please :) I would also like to see a 'link layers' feature added.

Well, that is odd indeed. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Affinity Designer and Sketch? Not sure if that will help but could be worth a try.

In-place editing of embedded documents
Cam replied to Dale's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
Interesting idea, I could see how it might be useful to edit in-place documents. Personally I prefer the way it's currently implemented - opening the document in a new window. I would, however, love the ability to view open windows as tiled windows in the Affinity suite without having to switch into Separated Mode. +1 for tiled windows. Thanks Dale. -
Hi Irenhrda, I don't seem to have any issues copying shapes from Designer into Sketch. I'm running the latest version of Sketch(ver 3.3), but I don't seem to remember having an issue with past versions either. What version of Sketch are you using?

Scrubbing over numeric entry boxes...
Cam replied to r10k's topic in Older Feedback & Suggestion Posts
Yes, this is greatly needed. As it stands currently, some numerical fields allow you to increase/decrease the value using your mouse wheel, but in my opinion it's a half baked implementation as incrementing the value is a slow process, even with the shift key modifier. I would also add that those of us who use a Wacom stylus are out of luck as there is no mouse wheel on a pen. As @r10k mentioned, most 3d packages handle this nicely(i.e. Maya/Blender) as well as Sketch and Photoshop. Hopefully the Affinity team will re-consider the current implementation for a click-and-drag approach as you would be able to increment values more rapidly and with greater control. We Wacom users would also be very happy. :) -

Jagged Line
Cam replied to Psiaku's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hi @Psiaku, I've experienced the same or similar issue and posted a thread about it a while ago here. When the screen tearing appears for me, if I press the middle mouse button and pan the canvas slightly it seems to correct itself. Does this work for you? I've noticed this same image tearing issue appears in OS X's Preview.app. Perhaps this is an OS X issue and not an issue with Affinity Designer/Photo. I'm hopeful the Affinity team at some point might be able to fix this in Designer/Photo. -
Great question @dreikelvin. It does seem odd that the fill command doesn't seem to work with masks. Unless I'm missing something as well.

Custom grids with gutters and improved pixel snapping - ooh my, you're making us UI Designers very happy! :) Many thanks!
