I would imagine the intention of the expand stroke feature is for the resulting shape to look identical to the stroke prior to it being expanded. If this is not what the Serif team intended, then this can be closed as a non-issue. Otherwise I would submit it as a bug.

Thanks @Old Bruce! Curious why the preview wouldn't be an accurate representation of what I would get when I expand the stroke tho...

I have what I feel is a pretty simple shape with a stroke, but when I expand the stroke the shape changes a lot.The pic below shows the black shape with a stroke (left) and after I expand the stroke (right). Also attached the .designer file. Cincinnati_Reds_Cap_Insignia.afdesign

Got it thanks! Is there a process for bug reporting or do the devs use this forum?

Thanks for the suggestion but I can't seem to get that Merge button to do anything. I click it and nothing changes for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong...

I have 4 artboards with both raster and vector objects on each. There are multiple drop shadow FX on each. The canvass is bonkers with different color shapes and vertical and horizontal banding from the images. I'm on a new MacBook Pro w/ M1 Pro chip. This same behavior is happening in Designer and Photo. Video attached as well as file in question.Building Sign.afphoto Bug Affinity Designer.mov Building Sign.afphoto

Any reason why Designer for iPad doesn’t have the actual buttons for undo/redo above the help button like Photo fo iPad has?

I can never seem to remember what the options in the constraints panel do. Can we get some tooltips on there? Especially the "lock" buttons.

Thank you!!! Couldn’t find this anywhere either

This is perfect! Even better than a keyboard shortcut

Yes that seems to be the problem. Thanks for confirming

Aha...makes sense. Thanks MEB

I have a Photo document that I embedded in a Designer document. When I edit the embedded document, it is opened in another Designer tab. How do I open an embedded document in a different Affinity app than the parent document?

I'm on 1.5.4 as well on my MacBook Pro running macOS Sierra 10.12.2

Currently when layers are added to a Group, the thumbnail for the group doesnt update. See video below: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rwyjpj8i7gygcmc/Group%20Thumbnail.mp4?dl=0

+1 on this topic. A shortcut would be awesome.

I think the second option would be better. As with most Mac apps, Designer should not close when you close the last document. Showing the studio when you click the app icon in the dock would be really nice though.

When I try and invert my pixel selection on a document, it deselects everything instead. This is happening on lots of documents including the one in the video here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wm65gkiik5sjmop/Invert%20Pixel%20Selection.m4v?dl=0

Oh wow that did it! Thanks! Any chance you can add a little alert to let a user know that pixel data can't be edited when they try and do an editing action? I've been pulling my hair out on this for a couple hours. Thanks again.

I'm trying to select part of an image with the Flood Selection Tool and it won't select. Check out video below: https://www.dropbox.com/s/st4oil37j1axus6/Flood%20selection.m4v?dl=0

Sorry this should be in the Photo beta thread

In RC2, when I apply a New Empty Layer Mask it clears all the pixels of the layer I apply it to. What's left is a blank layer with an empty layer mask on it. To replicate: Open any image Click Layer / New Empty Layer Mask

Invert Pixel Selection forest work anymore on RC2. It just deselects everything instead.

I don't know how to replicate this issue but the Selection Brush Tool is overall really unpredictable in v1.5 RC2. Sometimes it functions as expected and adds to the selection as I paint around but sometimes it completely removes the selection or even inverts it. It also seems that it doesn't work as well as it used to and doesn't snap to edges very well.

Adding a little more detail here. Im experiencing this issue on MAS v1.5.4 with MacOS Sierra 10.12.1. To replicate issue: Create new document of any size Click File / Share / Messages Error pops up "An error occurred while exporting to:" Dismiss error Sharing with Messages app still works though
