Hi, I've been trying to get rid of these white lines that keep showing up in my art boards, where I've repeated a tile converted to a symbol with a design inside it. The repeat design itself is perfect, everything is set to pixels and theoretically matches up exactly, so I don't understand why these white lines are appearing.
They don't disappear when I export as JPG or PDF. I am a surface pattern designer and love the live update feature across repeated symbols. But I can't export the repeat pattern as long as these white lines are there.
I've looked around online and found many others with this issue in Affinity but can't find any conclusive way to fix it. I'm running the most recent version of Affinity and Mac OSX, so there's some sort of discrepancy in the software...

Thanks everyone for your help! @henryanthony I've been playing with adding a stroke in the same background colour to the container symbol shape layer and so far that seems to be working. Just need to double check all my assets will clip to it without the stroke being applied over the top, but I think I'm on the right track...
