Thanks for your replies. I’ll just use Inkscape until Affinity fixes this. It’s meant as a bug report The PDF workaround is OK as long as the “paper” is normal size I guess.

I exported this from Lucidchart. It opens correctly in MS Edge, Inkscape, Chrome and Firefox. As well as on online converter i tried SVG to PNG (svgconverter.com). Which exported correctly to PNG. So far the only program that can't open it correctly is Affinity Designer, which I have paid for (twice, v1 and v2). I've even tried to export from Inkscape into two different versions, "plain SVG" and "Inkscape SVG" whatever that is. I verify that this is my original "artwork" or whatever, that I made with Lucidchart. I did try a suggestion of opening w. browser, export as PDF and import that into AD, which works, except for PDF splits my doc into pages. And that I expect to be able to import without this workaround. Breadcrumbs2.svg

I downloaded the 1.7 Beta, and I see that this functionality is present there. Both the align tool, the distribute works as expected. And also the snapping works beautifully. Can't wait for the official release.

It would be very useful to have the align/distribute functionality work on single nodes on a shape. Most vector programs have this - am I missing something? I hope so. Let's say I want to draw a capital E. I plot out the nodes with the pen tool, and now I'd like to distribute the right side's nodes evenly vertically. Then I want to align all the right-side nodes horizontally. This is just a contrived example, where such functionality makes life easy.
