So how do you suggest something to the actual company?
You do that in the Feedback & Suggestions forum. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/52-feedback-suggestions/

>>> or whatever wording makes the most sense.
Like like "Do not export this item" ?

well, it should probably be aware of it's current state and change the tooltip wording from "Make item visible in export" to "Make item invisible in export", whatever the state requires. or whatever wording makes the most sense.
But it isn't just about visibility, but actually about if it will be exported or not.

I mean the Character Style called ‘Style', Georgia 12, fully justified - I haven't altered a paragraph style, its the default setting.
Can you show us where (in what panel) you see any text style named "Style"? Is it in the Paragraph or Character panel. If so, where do you see the "Georgia 12" font name?
If this appears in the Text Styles panel, what do you see if you double-click on that to open the Text Style Editor window?

It’s available since many years, but deeply burried and not well documented
I think the problem is that the tooltip says "Make item visible in export" should instead say something like "Do not export this item."

With the Paint Brush Tool selected, what does the context toolbar show for things like opacity, flow, blend mode, protect alpha, etc.?
Also, which stamp brushes are you using?

This means that people with different versions cannot work together, which could be very bad not only for for business.
Yes, & as mentioned (& as the error message you got says) this is because the file contains features that the older version does not support. So even if the older version just ignored & omitted anything in the file that relied on that, the collaborations would not all be working on the same file with the same content.
Obviously, this could result in multiple versions of the file, none of which would be 100% identical with the others.
There is no way around this other than making sure all collaborators use the same versions of the Affinity apps.

Apparently, again a somewhat hidden request - to interrupt Crop?
Maybe, but the OP said "to abort these tools" (plural) so it seemingly can't apply to just that tool or the Perspective Distortion Tool or whatever else the "..." ellipsis might apply to in this earlier post.
So I still think this would require some sort of default tool or possibly a "no tool" option.

and of course, to abbort these tools, the ESC key should be work too.
Abort to what? Since some tool must be active (IOW, there is no "no tool" option), what tool would you want the Escape key to abort to?

I can understand that, but it kind of rests on pessimistic and deterministic view of promises of the Android market....
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.

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.
Layer states crashes program when objects containing more that one stroke are used.
