[V2.4.2, alignment / distribution resets (transform panel, alignment)]

Hey NotMyFault,

I agree this is a bug - on desktop, selecting another tool will commit the 'Align' History entry and I would want this behaviour on iPad too. I will get it logged. Cheers  

[Data Merge Grid Layout Missing on Creation]

@Hangman both Sean and I have reproduced this with our own User folders on Windows. I've attached it to the bug report for the developers to review. We're just currently trying to track the actual cause down.

[Data Merge Grid Layout Missing on Creation]

I have logged this against Monterey and mentioned the fact I can sort of reproduce it on Sonoma if I make the grid enormous

Any chance it's Monterey specific?

Well, I did see it on Sonoma initially. However, we have seen a few Monterey-specific issues lately - or at least issues have been easier to reproduce on Monterey. I will try this again in the office on Monday but can happily still log the bug.

[Data Merge Grid Layout Missing on Creation]

Hey Hangman,

I've just tried to record my own video for the bug report and for some reason, it's not happening now. Well, it will only happen at extreme sizes. I'm pretty sure I got it on a standard A3 document before.

I asked Sean and he can't get it either

[Data Merge Grid Layout Missing on Creation]

Thanks Hangman - I will get this logged.

[HEIC conversion to JPG does not write properly 'date taken' property]

Hi Martin,

I can see info in EXIF Tool, however, it looks like it might be a general import issue in Affinity as it's nuking a lot of the info even on File > Open...

[Publisher 2.4.0.2222 interface goes out of screen]

🫤I will update the report

[Publisher 2.4.0.2222 interface goes out of screen]

Hey anto,

I do not believe this has been directly fixed by the developers. However, looking at your screenshots you seem to be using different scaling. Maybe this is preventing the issue from occurring again? There are so many variables to this.

[Lessons - some artwork improper orientation]

Thanks @Maxdanger - I will get this logged for you.

Thank you! I will do some further testing with this information

[Affinity Photo closes when image is closed]

Hi @Conrad Hoffman

I've just tried this on both Retail and Release and neither of those close when I save an edited raw file. How are you closing the file? Are you going to File > Close or clicking the X in the corner of the document tab?

Does this happen if you start from a blank document, drop some shapes and text etc. and then save? What happens if you open the .afphoto file, do some edits and then save that?

I cannot imagine it would be specific to the raw file type you're processing but it might be worth attaching a sample.

[Affinity Photo Lens Profile Issues]

Excellent catch @Hangman

I have reproduced this on macOS, though Windows seems fine. I will log this with the developers.

Thank you very much  

[Mouse lag/stuttering on the UI elements]

Thank you. I will update the bug report and inform the developers.

[Export Persona: Path Components of a Slice Are Not Recognized Unless File is Closed and Re-Opened]

Ah, yes it is! Thanks @tzvi20

[Export Persona: Path Components of a Slice Are Not Recognized Unless File is Closed and Re-Opened]

Hey @TrentL

Thanks for the excellent bug report. I have reproduced this and logged it with the developers

[Publisher 2.4.0.2222 interface goes out of screen]

@anto Could you kindly do me a favour? Can you re-test this issue in 2.4 Release?

We've tried testing it on 3 different machines, each with a different 4k monitor and we cannot reproduce it. Going back to earlier 2.4 and 2.3 builds we can reproduce so we are assuming this got fixed in the wash.

However, because there are so many reports, I'm concerned about waking up too many threads with customers saying it isn't fixed for them.

[Mouse lag/stuttering on the UI elements]

@ΛMNESIΛ

I am looking at this in 2.4 and I'm seeking a few volunteers to re-test this in 2.4.0 Release - can you confirm if this is still an issue for you, please?

[32-bit HDR PNG support added]

Hey Frozen Death Knight

When importing the new .png-file back into Affinity the colours are correct again with the HDR preview on. Any ideas why this is?

I assume Windows Photo Viewer doesn't support the view? The file outputs would normally be intended for something like Final Cut Pro or similar. Even Photoshop displays the HDR PNG washed out.

Have you seen James' video on this?

As for the Export Preview, It doesn't yet support a 32-bit preview. These are lossless outputs so you won't need to be zooming in looking for compression artifacts but I do think we should be showing an accurate 32-bit preview. There is probably already a log of this so I'll do some digging.

[Strange page view]

Please keep an eye on it. As I've said, there could be another recipe to reproduce this. I would very much like to get to the bottom of it if we can! Thanks  

[OCIO v2 Bug]

I have updated the bug report to reflect that it is still an issue in 2.4 - I'm sorry this didn't get looked at. I will try and give it some momentum. 

[32-bit HDR PNG support added]

Hey @Graphite Addict The preset of PNG or PNG Dithered should be fine. None of the HDR stuff goes out on 8bit formats so as long as you've got either of those presets selected, it should be fine. If that isn't true, we may need a copy of the file to investigate.
