Maybe not the solution you want, but try the following as a workaround.

Hi @RioCielo and welcome to the forum.
It's not a bug in the Affinity apps.
In order not to have to repeat myself, I'll link to an answer of mine.

Hi @ttorimoto and welcome to the forum.
A typical Bitdefender false positive message. If you download the installers from Serif or the Windows Store, they are guaranteed virus-free..
My personal tip: throw Bitdefender in the garbage can, save money and use the Microsoft Defender included in Windows.

Hi @Kdavis52 and welcome to the forum.

To fill a selection you should use the flood fill tool from the tools panel for this.

Hi @ehbowen and welcome to the forum.
Please try it with hardware acceleration disabled in Affinity Designer.
To do this, hold down the CTRL key while starting Affinity Designer.
Uncheck all options and then check Disable Hardware Acceleration.However, I personally think that the graphics card is the decisive factor here. The card is good for fast calculations in an optimized environment CAD/3D rendering/audio/video production.
But not for graphics-intensive applications or games.
However, I am happy to be proven wrong. -
Hi @JELF and welcome to the forum.
Serif has made a few changes to the hardware acceleration that can lead to 'unfavorable' effects with indeterminate hardware/driver configurations.
Disable the hardware acceleration under Edit -> Settings -> Performance and observe after restarting the program if the response time has improved.
Before you disable the hardware acceleration, please check if the AMD system drivers (chipset) and the NVIDIA gpu driver are up to date!

Hi @Phil V
Go to document setup -> Margins. You can see the outer margin is set to 5 mm. Set it to 0 should help.

Use the Text Frame Panel and set the fill
Oh yeah, I didn't even think about the Text Frame Studio panel.
I guess that's because I rarely or never use it. That's quiet easier as my solution. -
Hi @Denis11676 and welcome to the forum.
Adobe uses a proprietary data area in their file formats to store various effects and settings that cannot be read by third-party programs.
Adobe creates a quasi monopoly position with this.

Hi @Ken S and welcome to the forum.
To get a full text box you have to use the shape tool.
For example, create a rectangle. Then select the Text Frame Tool and place the mouse pointer over the rectangle until you see this icon

Hi @Norfolk Paul and welcome to the forum.
Bitmap (.bmp) is a raster format! And an obsolete one at that. And both 1 bit color depth and .bmp format are not supported by Affinity programs.

Nice reminder to the early 1980s.

Not an issue just an observation...

Sure, you could have created a cut mask in a complicated way. 😏🖖🏼
But however you do it, the area of the dog layer should become transparent, probably because the created graphic is printed on something where the surface color should shine through.

Hi @ADRUMM
Version 1 is no longer distributed. And along with that, there is no way to download the programs anymore.
So the only options are to update to a newer macOS version or to buy new hardware. Unfortunately.

Hi @humpty dumpty and welcome to the forum.
In the classical sense, Windows Explorer or Mac Finder could be called an image browser.
With a few more details about the intended use, you could be helped more specifically.

Hello @Helmut O. and welcome to the forum.
Yes, it is possible to embed assets in documents.
To do this, click on the "Hamburger" icon with the Studio Assets tab open and select 'Embed in current document'.
This is what the help say:
Embed in current document—embeds the assets in your Assets Panel into your current document so that they can be accessed when opening the document later on a different computer (or on the same computer if assets were deleted). On opening a document with embedded assets, you're prompted if you want to import assets to your Assets Panel, making them available to all documents.

What is really going on with Firefox browser that prevented logging in?
Hi and welcome to the forum.
Possibly a browser plugin interferes with the login process

I can confirm the problem.
The provided file does not please my Windows PC either. The task manager shows a RAM occupancy of more than 17 GB.
The calculation of the preview hangs at 5%. And also the triggered export stops at 5%. -
Hi @Haedi and welcome to the forum.
Affintity Designer is intended for the creation of artwork, not for the creation of buildings or networks.
Free libraries with architectural elements or for visualization of network topologies are not known to me.

Hi @Rodolphe Robelin and welcome to the forums.
I can't confirm. It must be on your system side.
