Hey guys,
 
I was pointed here by MEB from another thread about this effect. Adobe Illustrator really has this figured out, see below for comparison.

I think Affinity should move in this direction too, even simple work becomes challenging if you have to deal with these hairline fractures. Every drawing needs a labor-intensive extra step to be production-ready (my current workaround is duplicating offending objects a few times, works well unless there is transparency involved), and once you add all the extra objects you lose ease of editing.

Below is what it looks like in Ai
 
  Of course, I have no idea how your anti-aliasing rasterization works, but my guess is you have to make some kind of a special case for edge overlap? Or maybe do rasterization on whole image instead of layer-per-layer basis? Or run some extra post-processing to make sure total alpha = 1 for every pixel?
 
Hope this gets some love in future versions!
