Print document crashes Designer and Publisher 1.9.0
Molumen replied to erchdk's topic in Designer Bugs found on Windows
Same here, Designer 1.9.0.932 crashes 5 out of 6 times when I open the printing dialog (CTRL+P). My document has 9 artboards. Printing can be achieved though, as the printing dialog will eventually appear without crashing the app, just restarting Designer and opening the same file several times is kinda annoying, so I'm eager to see that bug squashed. @Mark Ingram thank you for the good news, looking forward to testing the beta!- 10 replies

Expand Stroke bug (not accurate)
Molumen replied to debraspicher's topic in Pre 1.9 Designer Bugs found on Windows
Seems to be fixed in 1.8.0.585. I just checked the Expand Stroke, and it's VERY accurate now! -
I can confirm that in the newly released version 1.8.0.585, the bug has been BRILLIANTLY fixed. Expanding strokes is now VERY accurate. Thanks to the Affinity team for the long awaited fix, at last I will be using Affinity Designer for icon designing. Here's a preview of the file I originally posted earlier, showing pre 1.8 buggy stroke expansion, in comparison to the results in 1.8.

Affinity Designer 1.7.3.481 Bug is reproducible (printed this document on 2 different printers with same results) The document was created from scratch (basically it's a new document) Sample document is attached. Photo of the result is attached too. Operating system is Windows 10 (with all latest updates at the time of writing this) What happens: - I created a new document, it's a 2-page template for a small bi-fold wallet - All Strokes are 2pt thick, all Dashed Strokes are 1.5pt thick - When I print the document from Affinity Designer, all but 2 objects are prin

Designer is indeed a great software, but it is still not suitable for pixel-perfect work -
Expand Stroke bug (not accurate)
Molumen replied to debraspicher's topic in Pre 1.9 Designer Bugs found on Windows
If you look closely, you'll notice that there is a clearly visible distortion appearing on circular objects when you expand their strokes. It may seem OK from afar, but if you use those icons in an app on a small screen with high pixel density, it'll look veeeeeery bad... -
Expand Stroke bug (not accurate)
Molumen replied to debraspicher's topic in Pre 1.9 Designer Bugs found on Windows
Designer 1.7.1 I created a file that clearly shows the amount of inaccuracy after expanding strokes. I took white icons and grouped them on a black background. I duplicated the group on top of the first one, painted it black, and expanded strokes. The white color of the original, non-expanded icons that is visible, shows the difference between expanded and non-expanded. Each icon is about 40x40 pixels. The original afdesign file is attached to this post. icons.afdesign -

Expand Stroke bug (not accurate)
Molumen replied to debraspicher's topic in Pre 1.9 Designer Bugs found on Windows
This bug has been reported in Designer 1.6 as far as November 3rd, 2017. Since then, nothing has changed. In this post I even compared different vector drawing software with Affinity Designer (Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, and the opensource Inkscape). All perform way better than Designer at expanding strokes... :( -

A year has passed, Designer 1.7 is out, and the bug is still with us, nothing changed. I opened the very same file I featured a year ago (you can download the original file right in my comment above, the one with the many previews, and test it for yourself), and expanded strokes. Left is the original, non-expanded icon. Blue is the result for expanding strokes in Designer 1.7. The red underneath is the expanded stroke result in Designer 1.6 So... I'll stick to Figma for icon design and overall UI design then, while patiently waiting another year for 1.8 to make Designer great again..

I went to the Mac forum and read what Mac users are saying there, and similarly to this thread, it's full of frustrated UI designers that purchased Affinity Designer, but cannot work in the app because of this major flaw. Personally, it's been 7 months now since I last opened Affinity designer to create something in it. What's the point of creating a UI in Affinity Designer, and then having to switch to some other app in order to create icons for this UI? For now, I decided to stick to Figma (which has flawless expanding strokes at any size, even as small as 1x1 pixel). And since Affinity
