Of course, I'll post one here when I have the chance.

Hi team, I’m using 1.7.1.1 on an iPad 11’ iOS 12.4. I haven’t been able to reliably reproduce it but I recently had a lot of crashes when adding guides. These aren’t even benign crashes, every time all the data was unrecoverably lost since the last save (or all if there was no save).

Oh I just checked the desktop version, indeed, you’re right. However I was using the iPad version and there precise rotation only works around bounding box points, even when the reference point is activated. Sorry for the confusion, I should’ve clarified. Edit: then I guess my question is, are there plans to implement this on the iPad too?

I just ran into this problem as well. I think it'd make a lot of sense to be able to do precise rotations about the "external reference point", instead of points on the bounding box. Most of the time I want to rotate about the reference point because it is much more powerful (you can move it wherever you want and snapping rules apply to it). It is really frustrating not being able to do precise rotations without tricks like this. Are there plans to include an option for it in the transform panel?

Affinity photo can also work with .ase files which are quite easy to read/generate.

In Figma, you can connect any number of lines to a node. This makes it easy to create for example lattice-like structures. Is this something that could be implemented in Affinity Designer?

Oh yes, the labels seem to be right.

Justin then it should be okay. I'm on the beta. :)

I also had a few crashes, after one of which the file even got corrupted and could not be opened. Does affinity photo have some sort of crash reporting system in place or is it planned, so that these things can be tracked down?

Also on this note, though I'm definitely not an authority on this but the icons for the two look awfully similar, with only the dot-sized triangles indicating which one is which. Would it be a good idea to also indicate the function through the shape? It is a bit counterintuitive that for punching the shape on the icon is the same, concave one as for pinching.

In the liquefy persona, pinching punches and punching pinches. pinchpunch.pdf
