So after saving and reopening this project, the same issue has returned, except this time your "Edit Wrap Outline, followed by Reset Wrap Outline" suggestion doesn't work. This seems like a really strange bug. Selecting the invisible text and telling it to "ignore text wraps" does work, and doesn't reset after saving and reopening. But of course I have no idea why any of this is happening...and why it didn't happen in v1.

At first I thought this might not be a v.2 bug, but now I'm assuming it is. I created a massive project long ago, last saved in v.1.10.5.1342 and recently opened it in v.2.1.1 (running Windows 11). This particular bug relates to a bit of text that had disappeared in v.2. If you select it and drag it around it will randomly appear and disappear way down below where the selection is. Checking 'Ignore Text Wraps' (under 'Text Frame') fixes the strange disappearing text. In v.1 There was a LOT of this exact same styled text, yet this was the only spot it did this. I started another thread about it earlier, when I couldn't figure out what was going on. That thread has a video screen recording which better shows the issue. I also uploaded a 1 page version of the (400+ page) project in the last post of that thread. Here's the link: Just a side note, in the entire rest of this project, over 400 pages, this was the only spot where this particular issue happened even though I used this style of text a good bit. I did have one other little issue that happened maybe 3 or 4 times (out of maybe 200+): boxed text would decide to do a line break at a slightly different spot, sometimes resulting in text getting cut off. A slight resizing of the text box would fix it.

Okay, found some time to do this and yes, the bug is still there. I've attached the (1 page) file. My version 1 is: 1.10.5.1342 My version 2 is: 2.1.1 Just a side note, in the entire rest of this project, over 400 pages, this was the only spot where this particular issue happened even though I used this style of text a good bit. I did have one other little issue that happened maybe 3 or 4 times (out of maybe 200+): boxed text would decide to do a line break at a slightly different spot, sometimes resulting in text getting cut off. A slight resizing of the text box would fix it. I had to check the entire project VERY carefully to make sure I didn't miss anything. It makes me a little worried to install even minor new updates...

Just had a chance to check this and after a quick test it does appear to be fixed. Thanks very much. -

2.0.4 Develop Full of Bugs
Nathan Shirley replied to Nathan Shirley's topic in V2 Bugs found on Windows
Okay, done. This video shows the two consistent bugs I mentioned in my April 14th post. Summary: After 4 RAW photos are dragged into Affinity Photo, each are adjusted a bit (it doesn't matter how) and are then developed, right to left. The right most photo screws up, the next two are fine, and the left most also screws up. Then when closing them, they all prompt to save, but not the right most one. And just my two cents: I really think Affinity 2 was very premature, especially considering the upgrade wasn't free. My experience on ver. 2 has been considerably worse so far; glaring old bugs not fixed, new worse bugs added, and while some nice new features appeared, they seemed thin for a major/paid release, especially considering many of the most popular basic feature requests weren't added. Still great software, but v. 2 has been very disappointing. -

Any update on these bugs? -

I experimented for a while with the 4 RAW files I just uploaded and I think I figured out some things that are actually consistent: If I load all 4 of these files, adjust them (I used the same preset on all), then develop them one by one from left to right, it seems to work. If I do the exact same thing, except I develop them one by one from right to left, the right most one will screw up, the middle two will be okay, and the left most one will screw up. This seems to be consistent. Also found another little bug in this process: If you develop right to left and then close each file after developing, the right most document won't prompt you to save before closing, all the others will. If you develop left to right they will all prompt. I'd probably have to spend a lot more time to see if there's more to all these bugs, but at this point it seems like at least for these developing bugs, the order of developing makes a difference. Of course I know I've developed a single RAW file before and had it screw up (once, and then the next time it didn't), so maybe there's more to it. -

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with applying presets as it will also sometimes do this without using them. It appears to be completely random. By the way, these are Sony RAW files (from an a6300) and running Windows 11. -

I've added presets under "basic" and "tones." When I apply these to RAW photos in "Develop" and then try to develop them, it often seems to reset or screw up some of the settings, resulting in a bad develop. Everything looks good, then the development goes bad. It seems like it's more likely to get messed up if I apply the presets and then make further adjustments. Also, sometimes, but less often, the develop button just doesn't work...requiring me to cancel the development and start over. Also, when saving a "basic" preset that includes a white balance adjustment, the slider will look like it was remembered correctly, but the white balance of the photo will be unchanged. If I type in the same white balance number, or move the slider a little and back again, the white balance then takes effect. This was also a bug in ver. 1, but the other two are new. This all combines to be quite a mess...
