Hi all, Not a very clear title but best I could do to explain the odd bug. Here's a video showcasing it. Line node deleted snapping to geometry.mp4 Effectively, what I want to do is to recreate the group above which is a triangle divided into four angle bisectors (the red lines). This is something I do a lot in Designer. I start with any triangle shape, and the steps I follow are: Draw a line along the shortest length of the triangle. Use the point transform tool to rotate the line around the bottom right corner (the point that I am bisecting) until it snaps to the hypotenuse. Reposition the node which is at the bottom right corner so that it intersects the bottom left corner. Rotate the line 90 degrees to give the angle bisector. Where I am encountering the bug is at point 3. When I reposition the node to the bottom left corner intersection, the rubber band preview of the line mysteriously disappears and you can see the context toolbar options change. This isn't the case if I move the node to any other position on the canvas. When I commit the change, the node I was repositioning looks to have disappeared and somehow created a one node curve which can't even be seen in outline mode. The only way to get around this is to reposition the node to another place first, then move the node to the intersection point I want. From the video and my experience, this is repeatable all the time so it's not a bug that comes and goes. I don't know exactly what is triggering it - perhaps a combination of having used the point transform tool & changing the rotation centre & repositioning a node to intersect geometry. Would be great if this could be investigated Affinity Designer 2 beta v2.2 (1903) M1 Pro Macbook Pro running Ventura 13.4.1 Many thanks! Max
