That’s true, but two separate images are included in the OP.
Yes, I can see that, but if the original is actually just one file what was posted could be two screen captures of different parts of it, so zipping up those two images would not likely tell us anything useful.

Zipping the two files together and uploading the zip will provide the unchanged files for testing.
FWIW, the OP said "this file" which implies the original is just one file....

When I clicked on a black shape with the Fill Bucket icon the whole frame turns the color.
In the Layers panel hover the mouse pointer over the left side of the layer where there is a small icon thumbnail. Wait until a tooltip pops up. What kind of layer does it say this is?

I can understand why Affinity afficionados express worries and doubts.
My worry is that if they actually started developing for Android, there would be even fewer resources devoted to fixing all the bugs & missing stuff that are still major issues for the 3 supported platforms.

Why do people, who so clearly treat the forum as a hobby, feel compelled to oppose the few core Affinity customers who genuinely need improvements?
Who exactly do you think is "opposing" anything in any way shape or form concerning all the needed improvements? Some of us have been complaining about missing features, weird UI choices, & more than anything else about all the unfixed bugs & new ones that crop up in each release almost from day 1 of the first V1 release of AD for Macs, before there even were any other apps or any versions for Windows.
This has nothing to do with whether one is a commercial or hobbyist user. Nobody I can think of has ever said they oppose any improvements.

... and then will archive to iCloud when finished.
It is hard to tell from your tightly cropped screenshot but it looks like the download may be coming from an iCloud Drive folder named "archive." Do you have such a folder on your iCloud Drive with that name? If so, what is its size?
-
Is the local folder synced to your iCloud Drive?
Also, according to Finder how large is this local file?

Not sure if its a bug or not.
I think it probably is a bug -- at least I can't see any good reason for the size (& position) to change.
-
Can't help, other than to confirm I see the same thing in V2. Possibly a bug.....

Also, look at the bottom of the application window, on the left side of the Status Bar, where you'll see the Page Navigator. That will tell you unambiguously what page you're editing.
As well as providing options to go to other pages/spreads, & display word & other text counts.

Instead of automatically providing you with the right update, they force you to choose between MSIX and EXE.
It has been mentioned before but some users may want to change from one to the other for various reasons, so automatically installing the same version's update is not ideal. But there should be a warning about the consequences of switching from one to the other before either one is opted for.

As soon as I click the "horizontal center alignment" icon the two text objects are moved so that they are both in the center of the page.
??? That is exactly what Horizontal Center Alignment is supposed to do if you choose an appropriate Align to: center option.

I don't get how can this work; if I select first the type of alignment the damage is already done because the objects are moved (and they are moved where they are not meant to be, at least for my purposes...)
Not true. Nothing is actually changed unless you click the Apply button. If you click Cancel, there is no change in alignment, regardless of which options you have checked.
It is a bit unusual but apparently they changed it to work this way because of some unspecified issue they could not resolve with the original behavior.

That's actually ridiculous. Publisher works with spreads/pages, not artboards, which makes it wholly unsuitable for anything that's not supposed to be printed.
Not that it matters but you can use Affinity Publisher on a document that has artboards ... you just can't create them in that app, so you have to do that in AD.
So for example, I created this 5 artboards.afpub file in AD, changed the extension so it would default to opening in APub.

Just that it took x times longer to move the files around
Why would the printer have to move files around? Like from where to where?

Now Serif is rushing to release the production version before April 10th, to show off in the Canva Circus.
How do you know that?

Yes - try it.
Were you testing this with something other than the startup drive, such as pCloud, or another cloud service?

I would just like to clarify that writing does not only take place "at the end" of the file
Are you sure about that? As I understand it, the changes are serialized (added to the end of the file) until such time as there are enough changes to justify rewriting the entire file with the changes added in the main body -- 'deserialized' or garbage collected or something like that.

Because it doesn't matter at all for a new installation.
Then it should not matter if they are checked or not, right?

How can this incremental saving workflow result in a corrupted document if the OP's save process went "normal" (i.e. without error message/issue/crash)?
Ask the staff, not me. I am only repeating what -- as I understand it -- they have said about this.

So where did that screenshot above showing that Windows was warning you that Affinity Photo 2 V2.3.1 could harm your device come from?????
-
Try Window > Studio > Show Left Studio.

I'm using Ver2.6 the clue is in the question
That says nothing about where you were downloading the app from, nor why in your post above the screenshot says you have apparently downloaded version 2.3.1.2217.
As for default settings, are you talking about the default keyboard shortcuts, unedited default brush categories that come with the app, or what? It is not enough just to say you are using defaults because there are many possibilities, not all of which you may have considered. (The only way to be sure you are using nothing other than the factory defaults & to do the CTRL startup & reset everything.)
Basically, without all the possible relevant details it is just about impossible to offer any more suggestions about what is causing this atypical behavior.

Since it seems to the same issue as your other post (below) why did you add a second topic for it?
Android posibilities
in Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)

How so? What does it matter how big the potential Android market is, particularly for pro users, if they can't even manage to keep the apps even reasonably bug free on the 3 supported platforms? The problem does not seem to be lack of finances for development, not with some of Canva's money available for that. We were supposed to see more rapid development but that is not what happened.
