Yeah, I can't think of any reason why anyone would want to use an un-skewed, un-rotated, rectilinear image.   :)
 

Affinity Photo 1.5.2.69
Windows 8.1
32GB ram
R9 290x x 2
 
 
So I have been using Affinity Photo for a few months now after using Photoshop forever (since 2003).  It is a nice program and definitely could, and should, kill Photoshop eventually but I am noticing all kinds of weird issues with it.  I wanted to limit my posts to just one topic at a time and once I had enough information so this one is on the selection tool and a lot of odd things I am seeing with it.
 
Issue 1:
 
When zooming in on a selection sometimes the selection demarcations just vanish entirely as shown below in the screen capture.  On zooming out they return, also shown below (in screen capture for #2).

 
 
Issue 2:
 
For whatever reason the selection tool is not protecting non-selected areas from changes.  In the below image I have an inverse selection applied but when I went to remove the surrounding background parts of the inner-selection (which is not selected during an inverse selection) started to also be erased.
 

 
 
Issue 3:
 
When copying a selection from another project and pasting it into the one I am working on the pasted layer always is feathered at the edges.  The below two images show the resulting saved png file from a project which the source, second image, was copied from a different AP project and pasted into the one I am working with.  The source selection feathering is 0px.
 

 

 
 
 
Issue 4:
 
There are some serious drawing issues with the view port on my system.  If I drag an image around it starts to cause corruption within AP's view port and at times it can also corrupt the selection demarcations as shown below.  I will post a video of the view port corruption to this thread later.
