@squirrelfire I am running into the same problem as you are, hopefully this gets fixed soon.

I seem to have reported this about the beta half a year ago, see my post here:

1.7 install over 1.65 reset my workspace and all custom keyboard shortcuts. Unfortunately I can't even load my old shortcuts from the external file I backed them up to — AD doesn't assign anything on import.

@Sean P sorry for not creating a proper thread for this — will do my best to stick to forum etiquette from now on. thanks for getting back to me. @walt.farrell just to keep you in the loop: maybe this is a bug after all (?)

@Mark IngramAD 1.7.0 Win beta does not read my keyboard shortcut files created with 1.6.5 or earlier (but imports a file created with 1.7.0 beta just fine). Is there any way to fix this?

Strange, it didn't import my keyboard shortcuts from the 1.6.5 beta install, nor does it import the shortcuts file I saved earlier. Was there anything changed regarding keyboard shortcuts?

Running into the same issue, but in my case it's a jpg image that's causing the hiccup. Once I delete it, I get no PDF export error.

Please make "Find in Layer Panel" available in Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts. At the moment it's only available by right clicking on an object and choosing it from the context menu. I would love to have this exposed in order to up operating speed on files with lots of objects, going through the right-click menu gets tedious rather quickly. thanks, Sven

You're welcome. I don't think the difference is very obvious if you don't deal with a lot of typography.

Kerning is not letter spacing/tracking: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/2606/difference-between-kerning-vs-letter-spacing

Bug seems to be fixed in the 1.6 beta build (ran into the same problem with a recent project).

It would be great if someone from support/dev could chime in here. I am dealing with the same problem as @photogeek thanks, Sven

Hey MEB, thanks for the quick reply, it works just fine! cheers, Sven

Hi, is there currently any way in Affinity Designer to create a pixel selection based on vector shapes, for example: select two vector circles and press a button to get a pixel selection based on the two circles? I looked through all the tools and menus, but checking if I missed sth somewhere. thanks, Sven

Hi Chris, sorry to bother you again. I delivered my first couple of commercial illustration jobs using AD. Unfortunately I have run into more issues related to this problem, like super-saturated edges when working over a transparent background. This means I need to spend quite a bit of time closely inspecting the output and manual cleanup of the files. :( Will this issue be addressed in the near future? thanks, Sven
