and the event viewer to see if that has changed

can you post the crash dump from that run please

interestingly the log.txt file does not list the Nvidia card - try disabling that in device manager.

@spidermurph - can you send us the log.txt file which can be found in you user .Affinity folder (e.g. C:\Users\<auser>\.affinity\Photo\2.0 ) and another copy of the event log now that the monitor issue looks resolved. V1 and V2 use quite different methods of using graphics adapters especially regarding OpenCL

@demonweasel that report would tend to suggest a font issue - you could look into resetting the font cache they may also be an issue with duplicate fonts (which can be tricky to track down unless you use a font manager). Also try booting into safe mode and see if the apps run up then

Just tried that on my PC - and thats working fine. The VGA Compatible video controller may be the underlying problem. It could be the on-board graphics. Maybe sourcing a video driver from Lenovo is the way forward

Is the SuperDisplay Virtual Adapter something you've installed ?

could be worth checking Device Manager and its monitor section. it should list the built in monitor without any warnings

do you set the monitor device profile to anything unusual ? - if so try setting it to a generic sRGB profile

that would imply some sort of problem with a colour profile which I wouldn't expect on a clean install of windows

yes - you'll find them in the windows event viewer

do you have an windows event log of a failed run up attempt we can investigate.

did you do a complete new install of windows?

Is the PDF being generated using font sub-setting ?, disabling that may make a difference

@Euan the crash seems related to artboards. Has the source file changed in that respect since it was placed in the document ? maybe an artboard has been deleted. To investigate further we'd the file and the linked file to investigate

Could we get a copy of the file please

is it too big to go through each record in preview mode and see if its a particular entry causing the problem ?

In that case if you can put the afpub document and data file here please

the Fields panel

seems to be crashing when redrawing the fields panel - if you hide that panel before the merge does that stop the crash ?

I'm not seeing the big bounding box any chance of a sample file (saved with history) ? If you havent rotated the object then I think we dont create a 'selection box' that is logged in a report though

@NotMyFault - I'll get that pixel layer issue logged

@Hangman It may be better to change the order we cycle through. With this feature we also have another state after you have set a bounding box (base, regular and selection)

The setting of the selection box is non destructive so yes you can undo all previous operations

In libre office - Select all, then unselect the columns you want to keep. Then delete the columns you dont need (sheet, delete columns)
