I really wish it did. It's a great tool for generating web assets other than this issue. I disable the layer effects, export and then manually add SVG filters to the exported SVG I'd be happy even if I had to add code within AD or if SVG filters were separate and less capable than Layer effects. I just want a nice end to end workflow, exporting all assets with one action whenever I make changes.

Thanks for the reply

Is there a way to convert a constraints group into a normal group - essentially reverting any constraints from the children and grand children - in one click? Thanks

The handles only get hidden when panning the image. I couldn't find this in the keyboard shortcuts preferences either. However, if you do change it you will be changing the panning shortcut, not the shortcut to hide handles alone. There really needs to be a feature similar to ctrl+h in Photoshop. I keep hitting situations where the spacebar is not enough. In these situations either Affinity Design is not in focus (looking at a reference image or within a dialog) or I'm in a text field where I can't keep holding down space (adjusting font size/kerning etc.). In these situations I have to switch back and forth - deselecting the layer or navigating out and in of a text field so I can press space. This is a real PITA when making lots of quick adjustments by eye. TLDR; SPACEBAR IS NOT ENOUGH - ADD CTRL+H (or similar)

This is still an issue. I've observed only some panel positions being save while other revert to default (Symbols, Constraints, Assets, History save and Layers doesn't). Sometimes all panels revert. Maybe it is fairly random or maybe something has to be done to trigger the saving of a panel position change? Either way it's a real pain.

Symbols don't replace layer comps. If you're creating multiple states for the same design you don't want to have to create a new artboard and convert everything to a symbol just so you can show and hide a drop down menu or alike. Plus as mentioned before it would add greater compatibility with Photoshop. Symbols and constraints are great tools for responsive design but layer comps were useful long before we were all doing responsive design and they continue to have a role. +1 for still adding layer comps even though we now have symbols

+1 for this. You should be able to edit an asset in place and also update instances of an asset when opening a document.

It's ctrl+h in Photoshop. You don't have to hold it down. Why not do the same (or both if you really want a quick hide key)?
