[Add new option to Transform Objects Separately]

I have also been resizing hundreds of objects manually.    Often it is quicker to copy and paste the amended one to replace the originals...

 

THIS FEATURE is a MUST.

[Affinity Designer 1.7 Crashes when copying and pasting a simple curve]

New Project

Create a simple Triangle and then make one side curved

Copy and Paste (sometimes move the shape with the move tool)

Affinity Designer Crashes after a second (There is just enough time to save before it disappears)

 

I have attached a project.  Select the Blue triangle and copy and paste, if it is still working move the new shape up.  CRASH.

[Colour Dodge Blend Mode not working on Text Layers]

I applied the Colour Dodge Blend Mode to a black logo (png) on top of a dark blue rectangle and it makes the logo a nice light blue colour.  However, when I apply the exact same Colour Dodge Blend Mode to Black Text (also tried Rasterising it first), it is no longer visible at all.

Why am I getting different results?  Do Text Layers react differently to Blend Modes and if so, why does Rasterising it not make any difference?
