If I try to open any file from inside the program, there's just nothing happening. I had to start any file from the finder. That was until yesterday. I thoroughly tested that yesterday, including restarts, now that I want to report it, it works again! But the recent objects still won't open. Felix

Morph lines ? in Designer
-
That's a real shame, since it was discussed already in 2019 and supposedly its implementation was being considered vor v1. in particular to create controlled shade blends – I need it to laser a blend whatfore I need to edit the shade value of single "isobars". Very much needed – it's a strenght of vector drawing. I remember editing the VW pseudo-3D logo back in those days. I want my FreeHand back!!!! 😭

I'll test the 2.5 Beta version. Since the saving error occurs rarely and randomly, I can only report for sure, when the error persists It happens with files I saved before in the same spot, and only after some time, when I had a break in between. I routinely save my documents "old school"-like with a reflective left hand move - on my internal disk, it is getting only mirrored later in Nextcloud. iMac 18.2 21.5" 2017, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Ventura MBP 10.1 15" 2012, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Catalina -

I'm not having these issues at the moment, but it might be it's because my Nextcloud folder got unhinged from the cloud server. I was always working on a local file that was mirrored on the server. I'm a complete IT non-expert, but could it be that Affinity checks the distance file-in-RAM to the saving location? Allowing only next-to-CPU locations? -

Since today in Designer 2.3.1 / Mac – just updatet – I have the same problem. I can save over the existing file, but saving itself isn't possible due to "missing permission". Can someone please sort/copy/connect my reply to the Mac section, I don't know how to do that and it is probably connected to this issue here.

Sorry, the only moment I reach for help is when I'm drowning 🖐️ I didn't connect the pink lines with snapping, since the snapping didn't work the way I expected. E.g. when I have the letter E as outline – the center lines won't be magnetic, only the extremes. I'll read the Help - I promise! When I find time. 😁

So far I can't find a use for the Snapping Candidates – it appears to work very randomly and often parts of the shapes aren't magnetic at all. OK - 'nuff checked - I can buy V2. But I must admit – the list of reported bugs is still impressive. 😬

I too found the way the undeleatable picture sneaks in: it's the one I uploaded, but didn't use.

Thank you Walt! I found it - I don't know the menu name in English - the culprit in German is "Kandidatenliste" - when I turn all layers on, it works as it should!

I have a related topic – posted it in a different place:

I found out – I can suppress the outlines by pressing the space bar. Is thist the solution?? Not seriously.

hm, even editing this post doesn't let me delete the last image. The button at the bottom when editing my topic should read "Save Edit" or "Save", not "Edit Topic".

In AD V1 hovering over elements highlighted their outlines. This makes sense, since you want to know what to select, even when it's hidden. But when you removed the cursor - the image cleared. In AD V2 they stay and partly cannot be deselected at all, they randomly disappear or shine up when I touch other elements, in both preview and wireframe mode. It is annoying when I want to visually check a little icon and keep on seeing outlines. this is how it is supposed to look when my cursor is out of the way. This is when I touched the elements. Sometimes random artefacts stay visible. in preview and wireframe mode. Cannot deselect them. The only solution is to either export it or to save, close and restart the file. This doesn't make sense when I just want to see the effect and maybe revert it. I cannot find a hint, how to turn off highlighting at all. Is there a setting? I consider this a bug. iMac retina 2017, macOS 13.6.1

When erasing on a layer my pencil doesn't erase 100%
tymcat posted a topic in V1 Bugs found on macOS
I cannot remember it to happen before – I have a strange occurrency when masking or cropping an object, my eraser doesn't remove or cover the image completely, an about 5% shade remains and I have to erase respectively cover every bit twice. You can see it on the HEMI - I tried to remove the mask and had to erase twice. I checked color, intensity 100% Flow 100%, the brush is a default one... no idea what could be the culprit. No transparency involved. It makes work so much more complicated. Any idea?

AP works again For me the problem was solved by upgrading from Mojave to Catalina. No regrets, but it took some time to be fully fall-back secured. I've had bad experiences with Apple upgrades. So unfortunately I cannot report anymore about the bug-extinction under Mojave. I'm happy to be on track PS: I hope there will be a Linux version of Affinity one day ... «:) if not - maybe through a Mac/Win VM. If it wasn't for me being tied to several programs, I'd switch any moment - and spend money on good hardware (Mac would still be a good option).
