Hello everybody,
 
Using just PNG or GIF might seems as easy and OK option but if you want BEST results you need to have separate image for each scale of the icon, since in some cases the icons are very small and you really have to craft those image on the pixel level to make them crisp and clean. You cannot just resample the same image, that way you can get pretty blurry or aliased icons.
 
So the ICO is the must if you are concerned about best results.
 
I hope Affinity will get this feature soon, so we can export everything in the batch without having some special custom steps in production to construct ICO files manually.

Actually I know pretty much about GPU and acceleration.
 
Affinity definitely use in some way a GPU acceleration otherwise the app would be crazy slow compared how responsive otherwise is.
What I was thinking all the time is that it looks like the texture uploading problem or something with LOD system that could have something to do with AMD drivers. My GPU have 8GB of VRAM .. so I cannot believe that id could not fit what I use .. so probably not the case.
 
The Warp setting just made the rendering slow and the lag was still there. 
 
It's definitely related to the images put into documents, the bigger the image the more lagging. 
To me it could be a bug.
 
The pictures that I use in the document should fit into VRAM with no problems yet still have lagging.
 
I there are plenty of people on this forum referring to this problem .. and few mentioned that they also had AMD card.
 
It is very important to notice this makes app unusable. I have to optimize my image use and resolution before doing anything and keeping a lot of separate documents. I have also noticed that since I started using snapshot function the lagging is now taking over a minute. 
 
Please somebody fix this.
 
Thanks.
