Hi Laura Welcome to the forums. The bleed does not show on the preview at the moment, this is being worked on please see the road map from the following link https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/842-affinity-designer-feature-roadmap/ If you increase the svg size by the amount of bleed you require so it overlaps the page by the amount of bleed you are looking for, also when on the export to PDF click the more button and make sure include bleed is selected, this should give you the result you are looking for.

Hi HenryApps Welcome to the forms. Could you provide a copy of one of the files you are working with please so that I can test this.

Welcome to the forum RealAle I have used this method to re-colour images. Use the freehand selection tool to outline the area you wish to ad/change colour. Go to the layers tab. Add adjustment, recolour. For skin tone move the hue to around the orange section depending on the colour you are trying to match. Drop down the saturation to suit the rest of the skin tone. You can lightly blend in the areas using the smudge and blend tools. With regards the deselection of the selection brush please try selecting the move tool.

Hi Judy jj The way to get a rectangle with 90 degree angles in Affinity Designer is to use the rectangle tool on the left tool bar, if you wish this to be square hold down the shift whilst dragging it out on to your page, alternatively use the rectangle tool and drag a box then use the transform tab, W and H to set the height and width.
