    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.
