Thanks for your replies.
 
I've figured it out. The issue lies with the grid setup I was using. I had to turn off "Intermediate angles", now it works as expected.
 
Original settings:
 

 
Fixed:

Great idea, I joined immediately.
 
@Alfred: This is the same concept as IRC channels that have existed for decades and are a way to hang out with other users of a particular technology. It's a bit more casual than a forum in my opinion.

Sorry I don't see how this could be any simpler to be honest. If there is an option that says "Force pixel alignment" I expect the program to force alignment to whole pixels, period.
For types of work where you want fractured pixels you would disable "force pixel alignment".
Anything but 50.5.
Otherwise you'd have to rename the option to "Try aligning to pixels if it's convenient". In that case please add another option "Mercilessly force pixel alignment" for web designers.

It's currently not easily possible to align an item to its parent. Please add "Parent object" to the "Align to" drop down in the align tools so items can be aligned relative to their parent object.

Hi all
 
I have released a Boostrap 4 Grid Template for Affinity Designer. It includes columns, gutters as well as guides and some more stuff. This should hopefully help when setting up a new Bootstrap 4 project in Designer.
 
I hope you find this useful, let me know if anything is missing.

@MEB: That's exactly my point. Snapping should not override "Force pixel alignment". It' says force, so please actually force.
I use Affinity Designer for web design, I never ever want any half pixels when sizing and positioning objects. Snapping is useful so I don't want to go and turn it on and off again all the time.
From my point of view, if I tell Designer to force pixel alignment I should never see fractured pixels on newly positioned and sized objects anymore.

This is pure gold, I must say.

The option "Force pixel alignment" does not work in all circumstances. Snapping can mess with it and you end up with objects still aligned to half pixels.
In my opinion, "Force" should mean what it says.

Thank you so much. :D

Thanks for a tool. It will be useful for me.

Thank you for sharing that template with us.

With the Pixel Tool selected, Ctrl-click where you want to erase a pixel.

Okay I've figured it out. "Embed ICC profile" needs to be OFF in the export settings.
