Affinity Photo seems to use the original image's aspect ratio, no matter what you set the grid to be.
See attached pictures for an example. Suppose I want to edit a car's license plate, I set up a perspective projection so as to see the plate properly, and it gets stretched to the original image's aspect ratio.
Since there's no visible way to get the grid to match the source aspect ratio, the projection will always be distorted.

Fixes
Fixed rendering issues with ASUS SonicRadar, MSI Nehemic 2, etc (had to remove check for legacy RivaTuner crashes, see Third Party Software thread)  Fixed saving a preset in the raster crop tool context bar saves the wrong values  Fixed unable to increase brush dynamics using mouse wheel  Changed keyboard shortcuts to sorted alphabetically Tidied brush nozzle preview text in Brush panel Added missing custom wet edges from brush editor  Fixed brush settings disabling when editing brush after creating new layer  Fixed being unable to retrieve EXIF information from files that have non-ANSI characters in their path Fixed autosave not executing for readonly files  Fixed readonly documents having Save option disabled (now directs to Save As) 

Can confirm it works at least partially. When ran with a full image, FF works fine. When I selected a part of the image, and refined the selection, FF complained about an unexpected mask presence state.
