[Annoying startup lag is back/not solved]

Hi Lee,

I am not using the app store versions - I use the Affinity Store download versions.

If this is caused by the sandbox creation process of macOS - why is only the Affinity Suite affected (and not all other software)?

I always shutdown the computer. Currently the problem happens every few days/times when I startup. I have not found any pattern as to why/when it happens.

[Annoying startup lag is back/not solved]

Yesterday I installed the whole V2 suite using the universal license on Ventura 13.0.1 - startup time on a Mac Studio M1 Ultra was ca. 2 seconds for Publisher/Designer/Photo. Today the first start of  all apps fell back to 15 seconds, the second start was 2 seconds.

I thought this nerve wrecking problem should be solved by Ventura / Affinity V2.

Am I alone with this problem?

[Copying data into tables]

I can conform that copying data (comma separated or tab separated) does not work on the macOS version. I tried all hints that I could find in the forum (select several cells etc.) - no luck. I would expect this to be fixed for the release version, it is such a basic feature. How it works in QuarkXPress: copy anything from the clipboard that looks like structured data (lines of comma/tab separated text fields) anywhere on the page and Quark will create a generic table with no styling, just thin table/cell borders and text in a default font - and that's perfectly fine.
