limitation the scope of select same to a layer, a group or an artboard is a must-have function!!!
🙋🏻

Hi Sean P.
The artboard is scaled or the parent shape is scaled, the problem will occur.
In addition, I also encountered the same problem on the Mac.
-
The rectangle in the canvas is the parent shape, and the ellipse in the canvas is the child shape. I use MOVE INSIDE to move the ellipse into the rectangle. If I change the size of the rectangle and then move the ellipse in, the position of the ellipse will change.
In fact, changing the artboard size will also cause the position to change. In actual use, the ellipse is sometimes positioned far away from the canvas. The screen recording was created specifically to demonstrate the problem. The actual situation is much worse.

can I see the global color on the iPad before the arrival of 2020?

copy as SVG then paste it into figma and get a bitmap.

Hi adirusf, thank you for your attention to this issue. I know that when documents become complex, they can lead to performance degradation. But when I had performance problems today, i had only a few shapes in my document.
After exploring, I found that the delay occurred because the appearance panel was turned on and set fills for a shape. As long as it existed, the document slowed down. When it was turned off, the delay was greatly relieved.
Below I attach the GIF screen recording and the test file.

Please see the gif. I have set the view quality to nearest neighbor. When I drag a solid rectangle, there is a noticeable delay.

Thanks for letting us know - this happened for me immediately, but after doing a Ctrl Run up I could no longer produce the issue. I do have my AppData saved in this state so I'll get it passed over to development. In the meantime if you go to %AppData%\Affinity\Designer\1.0 (Beta)\ and delete the 'Workspaces' folder it will completely reset them and should allow you to resize the Layers Panel.
After following your method, I can drag and change the panel height.
But the new problems are still annoying. Please see the GIF below. I arranged the panels in the way I used to, switched to export persona, and then switched back, the arrangement of the panels was messed up.
-
Please see my recorded GIF animation. I can drag the mouse to change the width of the panel, but I can't change its height.
-
But I remember that it was solved before. In a beta version of 1.7, designer personal and export personal are no longer synchronized.
-
Very disappointed that this option did not come back in the official version of 1.7

Designer persona and pixel persona' panels are synchronized
There was a similar bug before

If I’ve understood this correctly, the original problem can be re-worded as: “Why does an HSL adjustment applied to a layer cause a white ‘outline’ to be seen on-screen around the shape in that layer when Precise Clipping is selected in the Preferences?” Have I got this right?
You're right. It is true that the problem is caused by the HSL adjustment layer.

I've learned to live in harmony with bugs. Top two Classic Bugs since Day 1 I Started using Affinity Designer:
1. Symbols will mysteriously lose connection
2. Mouse click Offset (ctrl+ click causes replication)- rubs, transitdiagrams and CLC

Ben, Thank you for your concern. I've upgraded all my beta affinity designers to the latest version ☺

This document loads OK for me in the latest beta.
The file I uploaded has been edited with 1.7.331. Then use 1.7.258 to open it and get the error.

I've uploaded the file, please check it.
Here's a screenshot of the error pop-up window

If all of your files are saved with the last Publisher beta that comes out then you might be lucky unless something relevant changes just prior to commercial release.
My recommendation would be – just prior to installing the commercial release – to export all of your documents as PDFs, maybe in various different PDF types/versions just in case.
Then at least you will have something you can import into the commercial release and won’t have as much work to do. Not an ideal situation but there’s nothing much else you can do other than hope for the best.Yeah, PDF is a backup solution. Thank you for caring about my problems from the beginning and for the advice you have provided. ❤

I think it would be best to leave the files created with the betas behind and start afresh if at all possible.
If that's the case, it's disastrous for me. Too many of my files are in the 1.7beta version. I saw Mark Ingram reacted your comment which makes me worry more about what you're saying is becoming a reality.
I do not require the official version to support all beta files. I only hope the official version can support the last beta files.

Newer versions of the applications can usually - but not always - open files created with older versions but older versions cannot usually open files created with newer versions.
That's just a normal thing for most applications and not just the betas.
Well, You're right.
As I couldn't help but use the 1.7 beta version at work, my working files had been 'kidnapped' and could no longer be opened with an older version. From then on I can only use the affinity designer beta versions. I didn't realize before that the structure of the files in version 1.7 would change. Now I pray that 1.7 of the official version will be able to open any previous version files!

Just now I use version 1.7.258 to open an edited .afdesign in version 1.7.331, with the software prompt "The file appears to be corrupted". Is this an accidental phenomenon?
Or is it true that 1.7.258 can't open a file saved in version 1.7.331?

Yes, it may happen a couple of times in a multiple-hour work session, when we frequently toggle pixel alignment and snapping and change zoom levels.
I remember this issue was addressed some years ago and it got better, but was never solved completely.
Agree with the views of rubs. For illustration workers, slight movements are difficult to observe and do not cause major problems. However, for UI designers, a small amount of error can have catastrophic consequences, such as incorrect size of the slices, alignment problems, and so on.
As a UI designer who uses Affinity Designer heavily, I have been forced to develop the habit of constantly alerting the size and position of objects, and I am very careful about every mouse click, because the mouse is too sensitive.
The problem of slight movements was raised a few years ago, and it did improve in later versions, but as rubs said, it has not been fully resolved. Long-running Affinity Designer will slow down, and the probability of a light-shift problem will increase dramatically.

It's useful when drawing an icon set.

"Select Same" and "Select Object" with multiple artboards
in Feedback for Affinity Designer V1 on Desktop
Posted
Nezumi wasn't the first to make the request, but it's been almost a year now. There was no response from the development team and no change to the AD.
When Select Same was first released, I thought this improvement would catch up quickly. Unexpectedly, the development team was really reluctant to make any changes to it. Very disappointing!
