This feels a little like looking a gift horse in the mouth. The ability to scale between CAD and Affinity is enormously helpful for me. I have noticed that copying and pasting elements from one drawing to another doesn't always retain scale. I have a theory that a drawing of a 100m object might paste from an A1 drawing to 50% scale onto an A3 document, suggeting the scale feature is relative to page size. Highlighting this in case it's a bug. In realtity the work round is easy enough, just linking the x and y ratio in the transform tool and editing the width of the object to a known length after pasting it in, but getting rid of the bug (if it is one) would be amazing.

Thank you so much. Tested and working. That is fantastic. A software company that listens to its users. How refreshing.

Thank you so much. Really hoping this makes it into the next update as it stops me drawing on the ipad. Thanks for listening...

Many thanks. Fingers crossed.

Yes, I have tried several key combos on the ipad keyboard (smart folio type) and none work.

Deselect Key Shortcut Doesn't Work (Still)

iOS Designer 2.3 Ipad 11" Pro Deselect button on the screen works, but the deslect key command shortcut doesn't. This was a problem in 2.2 as well. Please sort this. It stops me vector drawing on the iPad. Which is a shame as that's why I bought it.

I am a Designer user for Mac, PC and more recently iPad. I also use AutoCAD, which has trained me in the use of the escape key while drawing. Essentially, escape to deslect is a fundamental part of my workflow, as I am sure is the case for many. The iPad keyboard has a globe key that can be programmed to enter the escape command. It works, as the shortcut page allows the globe key to enter the UIKeyInputEscape, but in the vector environment the key has no effect on a selected vector. Is this a bug, or a feature that hasn't been activatred yet? It's driving me crazy.

It's one way on my pc. Windows 10.

Walt, I don't find that is the case. Nothing happens when I double click a placed jpeg in publisher. If I move into the pixel persona I can edit the jpeg, but it doesn't affect the original file or the sister placements of the same jpeg.

Change the designer file and update the publisher file and you will see the problem! :-) -

Thanks for this. I have uploaded the files. All images within the publisher report come from the same designer graphic. -

Thanks for raising this. I was also perplexed.

Dimitarsp I have found that if I copy an placed asset and double click to edit the layers, the layer changes will affect the copy and the original. So to avoid this, I place a fresh instance of the graphic for each view. This works fine. Each 'place' can be edited differently in terms of layer view. But, if you make a change to the original designer file all the placed graphics will reset back to the saved state of the layers in the designer file, which is a question I have opened on the forum.
