I don't get why Serif is against the standard behavior of other apps.
Locking any action make sense. no brainer.

Serif said Japan is the 4th biggest market. No mention about China/Taiwan but it would be another big market from its population.
Probably that's the reason why Affinity has Japanese/Chinese UI.

Dear Team,
First, I would like to briefly and clearly explain the issue at hand.
The Korean writing system is composed of alphabets, characters, words, and sentences.
Alphabets in Korean consist of consonants and vowels. By combining these consonants and vowels, a character is formed. This is what I refer to as a "character" above. Then, characters are combined to form words. Unlike European languages, many Asian languages, including Korean, split lines based on characters rather than words when wrapping text at the end of a line.
The most significant difference between Korean and languages like Japanese or Chinese is that Korean uses spaces between words, whereas Japanese and Chinese do not. This might make Korean text appear somewhat unique. Since Japanese and Chinese wrap text based on characters, I am requesting that Korean text also be handled similarly.
Interestingly, this issue might not be well-known unless one is familiar with Korean word processors. For example, Adobe Illustrator has not resolved this issue. However, Adobe InDesign addresses it by leveraging the English hyphenation system, which may seem unconventional to native Korean users. To the best of my knowledge, enabling "auto-hyphen" in the settings resolves the issue, which is why discussions about hyphenation often arise. It seems that InDesign internally inserts hyphens between Korean characters, but these hyphens are not visibly rendered.
If this issue is classified as a bug, I believe it can be fixed, and I am not seeking a refund. Especially since I purchased the Affinity V2 Universal License (without any coupons) rather than just a single program, requesting a refund would be somewhat impractical. The price difference between purchasing only two programs and the universal license is negligible. Therefore, I hope this issue can be resolved rather than seeking a refund.
Thank you for your attention, and I appreciate your efforts in addressing this matter.

一度アンインストールしてから、アドバイスに従って【ＭＳＩＸ】版をインストールしました。
レンダラーも選べるようになり、CR３ファイルもJpegファイルも開くようになりました(^^♪
色々アドバイスをくださった皆さん、ありがとう！

Would be nice if you could implement "palt" feature
https://sparanoid.com/lab/opentype-features/#palt

Additionally pwid/pkna/halt would be nice.

Ultimately I would like you to add "Mojikumi" feature that's set of  templates for kerning.

I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but the V1 apps on my iPad (specs below) are working mostly fine.

@Patrick Connor Please refer Illustrator's Paragraph panel also.
There is Kinsoku Set(line breaking rules) and Mojikumi Set(word spacing rules) that's important both of them.
You need to enable East Asian option in Preferences>Type to see this feature.

Great. line breaking rules are minimum requirement as publishing/printing software.
Even if we put vertical writing feature aside, Affinity is useless as publishing/printing software for horizontal writing as well.
Current state is less usable than simple word processor(or even text editor), people are being so disappointed after they tried Affinity.

カラーパレットの「不透明度」の横の●をクリックしてください。
「ノイズ」に切り替わりますから、それを0%に変更してください。
恐らくこの挙動をご存じないですね？

ノイズが出るのは過去にノイズを0%以外に設定したためそれを記憶しているのだと思います。

 
The reason you see the noise is that you set the noise to other than 0% before and Affinity remember it.

Click the circle next to the "Opacity" text on the color pallet to switch to the "Noise."
Then set to 0%.
 

No, there isn't such feature.
Until you convince Serif to add this, they won't.

GPUを確実に使うのはライブフィルタ―(放射状ぼかしなどが重い)などです。
天体写真スタックは使わないかもしれません。

Certain condition GPU will be used is Live Filters.
Astrophotography Stack may not use GPU.

It seems that it still happens in v2.6.3.
 

ashfさん、繰り返しありがとうございます。
早速、「U.S.」入力を追加しました。
このU.S.でのショートカットなら問題なく操作できます（「英字入力、ローマ字入力」←これは間違いです。正しくは「英字入力、かな入力」でした）。
左cmdキーで「U.S.」、右cmdキーで「ひらがな」に切り替わるようにしていますので、ショートカット操作の前に左cmdを一度カラ打ちするようにして当面試運転してみます。
 
どうもありがとうございました。
 
バージョンアップで、日本語や他の言語での操作にも対応されることを期待してます。

Did you try in Chrome?
Safari might be neglected the support on many web services.

Honestly Xara desktop app has cranky and ugly UI that looks it came from 90s...
That turns me off.

That was a bit personal. 
Anyhoo, the point is, Xara, as I stated, is indeed frozen in 90s, but if the UI is all that matters to you, then how is affinity better? Affinity UI makes a cardinal sin. Poor size and contrast. Poorly customisable. 
Xara once upon a time supported light UI, and it was better. Every software developer and ui "specialist" now thinks dark is by default better. Even the only option. 
Xara can STILL run circles around designer. For a program that's essentially put on maintenance, that is impressive.

See my topic also. problem is not just whether true vector or not.
 

According to printers in Japan, regular western crop marks are inconvenient because they can't grasp bleeds intuitively at glance with it.
That's why Japanese style double crop mark exists.

A Japanese printing company asking you to implement Japanese style crop mark that is effective to gain users in Japan.

VTracer is the best so far among free ones.

Confirmed that it's fixed in 2.5
Thank you.

Hope It will be available in the V2 life cycle...
