Is there a reason, why the new floating typography panel can only be resized in horizontal direction but not vertically? Cheers, Timo

AP Beta 2.5 display issues
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
@Chris B The setting was on "Automatic (Best)" - but changing retina quality to "High Quality" solves the problem. Frankly I assumed that "Automatic (Best)" equals "High Quality" .... apparently I was wrong -
AP Beta 2.5 display issues
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
OK, I did some more indepth investigation on this. 1) it only seems to be visible with certain "Moiree" (in this case the jacket garment) 2) Using the same picture in the same area ist does happen with 2.4.1 as well. 3) Performance settings are the same in both versions 4) And it seems to be a redraw issue. Hovering on the same spot for a little longer makes this effect disappear again Therefor I assume it's not an Beta issue - I just got aware of this under the given "unlucky" circumstances ... -
AP Beta 2.5 display issues
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Other New Bugs and Issues in the Betas
I wasn't trying to properly analyse the effect - so you might be right. Still, if it's blurring before the the final image is redrawn, the redraw should happen at one point in time. And certainly this only happens in the beta - and only with the brush tool. So I would assume if it's a technology issue it should happen with all tools?! -

Hovering over a document with the Brush Tool selected results in strange display issues (darkening) in sections when simply moving the mouse over different areas. It doesn't happen with other tools. See video. Cheers, Timo Hover.mp4

importing/pasting Word content
DarkClown replied to caruso john's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Hmm, interesting ... on my laptop files with docx extension were not shown - but it worked on my PC. And the *.docx extension is not shown in the available file formats for "Place" (unless it's hidden behind the tree dots in the "Text Files" section ... ) -
importing/pasting Word content
DarkClown replied to caruso john's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
I seriously wonder why this "function" is called "Import" ... Certainly since you can't open a docx document, nor can you "Import" it (not offered in the file extensions) and you can't "Place" it ... (also not offered in the possible file extensions). So there remains "Drag & Drop" - what surprisingly somehow adds some pics and little text in the open frame. Completely mashed up - no format maintained (and it's not that docx wouln'd contain theses informations). Elements invisible (just frames) ... It's most likely more work to get text and pictures back into where they once belonged than just copy the original text and start from scratch with a proper layout. I wonder if it's worth implementing 5% of a functionality/filter just to be able to put "Import of DOCX Files" on the tick-list (or in the help file)... -
AD: SVG only exported as bitmap
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Nevertheless .... I removed the color overlay and it seems to work ... very strange Thx Walt for pointing that out. -
AD: SVG only exported as bitmap
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
It's just a color overlay that I've been using on 100's of icons beforehand - without any problems .... -
For sume stupid reason I suddenly can't export a pure vector image as SVG any more. Only rasterised bitmaps are copied (through the clipboard) or exported even when I select SVG as the export format. The imported bitmap (with SVG extension) clearly only contains the bitmap. I guess I undeliberately changed something but I can't get my head around what I did wrong. That's been working for years ... 0 This is the re-imported SVG file: And, yes my settings should export SVG data via clipboard: Any help would be appreciated. Timo

AD: Snapping of point handles
DarkClown replied to DarkClown's topic in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Stupid me ... that solves it! Thx! Would it possibly make sense to add a "Disable Handle Snapping" to the general snapping tools: Since having all snapping disabled and some elements are still snapping seems at least a "bit irritating" .... -

It would be very helpful if Asset items would have a "multi select" capability in the list. So multiple objects either can be dragged into the document or plenty of objects can be deleted with one click.
