In the 2.3.1 version the problem is still not fixed. Could you please address this? It really is an extremely annoying and troublesome bug. The problem persists in AP and AD. A new major version of the Affinity apps has been developed in time. It has already had several updates. One of the reasons I purchased a licence for Affinity 2.x was the good support. Unfortunately, I am starting to feel more and more disappointed. I'm attaching a link to the bug report:

When I make a selection from a shape and then invert the selection, the selection just disappears. Here is a video I made showing what I am talking about. Affinity Photo - Invert Pixel Selection Issue.mp4

When working in Photo or Designer, on a pixel layer, using the command select all works on a new document but stops working as soon as I introduce an irregularly placed artboard. The same behavior with the invert pixel selection. I will attach a video and file to show the problem in action. It appears to happen as soon as the artboards are no longer aligned with each other but I am not positive, I just know it appears after creating new artboards that shift around in location. As it stands now, the only workaround I have found is to make a mask, invert the layer directly, and then make a new pixel selection to get an inverse pixel selection. Similarly, I can workaround the select all by using a rectangular marquee with snapping. However, these workarounds are cumbersome. While preparing a video to demonstrate this, I believe I have discovered that it all falls apart when an artboard is placed vertically higher than the initial document/artboard, suggesting that when the Y values shift to accommodate the new position is when the bug appears. There could be other factors, that's just what I observed. selection issue.mov Affinity Designer/Photo 2.2.0 MacBook Pro 2019 15" MacOS 13.3.1, 2.3GHz 8-Core Intel i9 Radeon Pro Vega 20 4GB 32GB 2400MHz DDR4 selection issue.mov selection issue.afdesign

I have a problem with the "invert pixel selection" function. Actually there are two problems visible in the video I am uploading. 1. after filling the selection on the layer the view does not update and the filled shape remains invisible 2. after using "invert pixel selection" the selection is ruined and takes a strange shape I'm sending two AP files - start.afphoto - before test - after.afphoto - after test System: windows10, AP v1.9.2.1035 2021-07-05 11-13-57.mp4 after.afphoto start.afphoto
