This is still a problem with ALL Affinity Apps (2.5.5.) on Mac. It goes beyond, that if you click on Affinity Publisher Icon in the doc, after you closed a project, the layers are still visible. Now, if you click on a "new page" icon in the pages panel, Publisher will just crash. Similar on Designer, just click on an FX icon in the layers, and it will crash.

I have a Affinity Publisher document with just one word inside. When selecting Export > PDF, Publishers crashes instantly during the calculation of the size of the document. This is with ALL actual Affinity programs, like Photo and Designer. I also tried the actual Publisher Beta 1.7.2.420 and got the same results. As some side information, there is one font inside especially one special style hat produces this error. The font creates no trouble when I just use Mac TextEdit or Adobe InDesign and create a PDF out of it. I already informed the type foundry about the problem with the font so that they can check about. Anyway, if there is something with the font, it would be a good idea, if Affinity would print out an error or something and don’t crash, because it was a lot of work to find out, what exactly triggered the crash. :-) I attached the crash report. I really would like to attach the AP document here and also the font, but the license of the font restricts it to give it away. :-( Affinity Crash Report.txt

In Affinity Photo (1.4.2) when resizing a document with Document > Resize Document… it would be of great help if the Resample option would ether remind the last set option or be set to Bicubic or Lanczos as standard and not „Nearest Neighbor”. Maybe I’m wrong, but most of the people using Affinity Photo work on photos where „Nearest Neighbor” is the baddest of all resample algorithm. :-)

Hello, for the sake of usability It should be possible to create a guideline not just by dragging it out of a ruler with the Move/Node-Tool but also with every other tool. Say, I use the rectangle tool and when the mouse pointer is over a ruler, the pointer should automatically switch to the Move tool (as long as it is over the ruler), then I just can drag out a new guideline. I often need guides for my work and it would help the work flow a lot. This would be a killer feature! Thanks, Chucky

In Affinity Designer (1.4) it is possible to convert a global color to a spot color. So far so good, but how do I convert a spot color back to it’s normal state, to a non-spot color? You can edit the color, but not it’s state of being a solid color or not. I know that you can "honor spot colors" when you export to a PDF for print, but sometimes it’s important to convert a spot color to a non-spot color when you just want some colors to be spot colors when you export a PDF for printing. Thanks in advance for all tips and hints.
