When I drag in an image it appears as (Image) in the layers. Almost always I have to rasterize this layer before working on it. Is there a way to have this be the default?

See attached image. Why is the lower one further left? Are the actual values more precise, i.e. one is 246.4 and the other 246.1 or something like this? Or is it a bug?

How to rotate around a specified point? How to flip along a certain axis?

Affects Affinity Designer 1.6 for macOS Steps to reproduce 1. Have a simple document with at least one object 2. Drag that object then hit option because you want to duplicate it Expected 3. Dragging operation should turn the dragged object into a duplicate, leaving the original in place Actual 3. Nothing happens, option key doesn't have any effect once the dragging is going on. Dragging has to be stopped, undone, and the operation started again with holding the option key before starting to drag. Comment: I'm very used to the behavior where I first start dragging and then hit option. Would be great if this could be added, especially since it doesn't seem to have any side effects. Other applications that behave like this are Finder, Sketch, and Illustrator.

Awesome! Seems like I missed that section of the preferences. Thanks a lot!

I'd like to select objects (with the move tool) in the way it work in Illustrator. That is, for e.g. a square I just draw the mouse rectangle above one corner and then it will be selected. With Affinity Designer I have to drag the mouse rectangle across all four corners which I find less effective. Is this possible? I didn't find any setting.
