I have a brand new M3 laptop, brand new installation of Affinity designer, and back to problems, where shortcuts aren't working properly... Unable to assign CMD+SHIFT+$ or CMD+$ as well... Resulting in nothing but making a "bloop" OSX noise...

In affinity publisher : Strangely, after this manipulation - whereas the shortcut box does not show the same key combination for both affinity designer and affinity publisher - the default shortcuts to arrange layers are now set to SHIFT+CMD+^ and SHIFT+CMD+$ / and this works properly... - If someone could explain me this...

Hello. For sure there's an issue with SHIFT+CMD+). And I have noticed the same thing with the switch of 0 instead of ) And strangely, ADOBE XD's shortcut to move and arrange SHIFT+CMD+^ or SHIFT+CMD+$ does not work either in Affinity... Let me share another recording of shortcuts configuration in Affinity Publisher, you'll see the madness of it. It's like the preferences are overwriting themselves... Crazy.

Absolutely.

Ok.

Hello Dan. Yes for sure... But hard to prove anything because when i'm applying shortcuts, nothing happens ;))))))))))) Just got this unbelievable situation : I trashed affinity designer and downloaded a new version. Fresh install. I opened a new document and configured new shortcuts to manage object arrangements in an artboard (layers panel) : it worked. I closed the document, and re-opened another document I'm currently working on. "Arrange Objects" Shortcuts have been erased and replaced by the app (apparently default ones). Default shortcuts in the app are SHIFT+CMD+4 and SHIFT+CMD+6 (which is pure non sense because on a mac SHFT+CMD+4 makes a screenshot..--> System shortcut) - Here is a video of the issue i'm facing. Thx for your help, because this is absolutely unpleasant to work with that... Enregistrement de l’écran 2024-07-11 à 17.41.20.mov

Hello. I do think this issue is happening on my laptop as well. Sonoma installed. Can't manage shortcuts properly which is hugely getting on my nerves... Because nothing works like expected.... I'm trying to record a video, but unfortunately, you won't understand the process, because when I'm using the custom shortcuts, nothing happens, and can't prove it.....

I'm using Affinity Designer 2.5.3. My shortcuts regarding the position of layers (front, back, ...) have been changed, and I can't change them anymore. I can enter new values, but as soon as I'm back in the app, they are totally ignored. Re-opening the prefs panel show default shortcuts. Very annoying...

Hopefully, the renaming process is now much better. But Duplicating a new artboard should at least behave like adding an incremental value as mentioned in previous post.

I'm sorry, I really had to finish this job so I used versioning on Dropbox to get back a functional version of this file... Next time it happens (I really hope it won't happen ever again), I will share the corrupted file. Thx for your attention and sorry for my lack of reactivity. N.

I also a real issue with the latest version. On mac os x, I don't have the top of the app anymore. Resizing the window is not working properly either.... Is there a way to find previous working versions??? So I can have my job done, cause right now, I'm stuck with a non working version... N.

Hello... I'm facing a strange issue. This is the first time I'm experiencing that. I've been working hard on a file which contains multiple artboards and graphic iterations. Last save was yesterday night, today, I can't open the file. Affinity softwares say this "type of file is not supported". Firstly, I'm stuck because it's the only file I've got for this client... Secondly, this is the first time ever Affinity is behaving like that. Is there a reason ? - If someone @serif can handle this file and check it? I can give you a private link. Thanks.

Ok thanks I'll definitely try that.

Never had those types of messages before. And I don't see what I could have done that would have forced this type message... Anyone with that behavior except me? By the way, this absolutely the only app that displays that type of message over dozens and dozens of other apps I'm using...

Ok, but why does it display those boxes for a while ? It's becoming annoying.
