Hi! I'm experiencing a quite annoying bug... It seems that, randomly (like 1 every 4 ou five times), when I use cmd+c to copy a layer AD (latest version) freezes and the app doesn't respond anymore :( Any clue ? I'm running a mc book pro Retina 13-inch late 2013 with Sierra (latest update) Thanks for the answer

If I hit the key combination ⌘-Return (a.k.a. Enter) AD crashes. I’ve uploaded a crash report to the Dropbox.

Hi I have on occasion experienced crashes in AD while drawing avector shape or tracing over a shape,using the Pen Tool. In most instances the program just closes immediately with no warning and no access to Crash Reporter. On odd occasions it reveals a window box informing me of a Crash Report following -but nothing happens. I was hoping the latest update may have fixed the problem, but today it has re appeared. I am using the pen tool to create a vector outline shape and am wondering if it is the little curve tools on the drawing line- the ones you move to change the curve shape. Everything else I do seems to be running OK. I have Win Pro 10, 16Gig RAM with SSD for programs and standard 500Gigs HDD for storage (3 drives + reserved partition for win b/u program). I have 2 x Acer monitors and use NVidia GeoForce 500x (?) graphics card with 1 gig onboard RAM. Standard Microsoft mouse & keyboard. I suspect it could be i am not using the pen tool /curves correct? Thank you! -
If a PDF with oldstyle figures is placed in an Affinity Designer document the figures get changed to default style (but with horrible kerning). If the PDF was orgininally created in Designer all numbers are changed to default figure style (as far as I can tell). If the PDF was created in Illustrator only the numbers of some of the fonts are changed. Look at the two attached files (JPEG preview and Affinity Designer): On top is the text written directly in Designer, below the placed PDF made with Designer and below that, the PDF made with Illustrator. The three fonts I used in this example should be ok (Adobe Jenson Pro, Minion Pro and Myriad Pro). Both PDFs look ok in Adobe Acrobat. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong when exporting the PDF? Oldstyle-in-PDFs.afdesign

No doubt again something simple, again probably a simple fix, but I've already conceded my infant level AD knowledge - help please. How do y'all explain the following behavior upon my reducing the image size in AD, on a 3 month old MacBook Pro running AD 1.5? I've attached 4 thumbnails below to help illustrate. I drag a me-made asset (that stupid black tote bag) onto a photographic image of Bigfoot in an attempt create a crude image of him carrying a black tote bag with a logo on it. Obviously, the scale of the tote is way too large so I begin to reduce it's size. I used both the Transform Panel (W+H) as well as constraining via Shift/Drag. In both cases, the smaller I reduce, the more I see proportional changes in certain layers in the logo (which are grouped). I did NOT have the 'Loch Children' box ticked - would this have bearing on the effect I'm getting? Most obvious IMO is the change in the curvature around the black 'C'...just saying. Thanks for any help! (I love playing with this program - can't wait 'til i have a better grasp of it all) -Christo -
Hello friends, how can I open more than one instance of AP & AD? I have two monitors and work on two different projects, am still young and multitasking capable ;) Since I can use AP / AD only as an instance, I'm forced to edit the second project parallel under Adobe CC (I find Adobe's licensing policy horrible!) and wants to get away from all Adobe products! Can you help me? ChristAlix -
Hi; I've found an unexpected behaviour (unexpected for me, of course) when adding a text to a circle shape. I was trying to write the text all around the circle by outside, but instead when I've written half the text, it jumps down and to the inner part of the circle (see attached image). Is there any way to prevent this, a workaround, or I'm doing sthing wrong? Thanks in advance; Val -
Hi AD pros, I have a problem with simple squares exactly aligned next to each other. In the UI (sometimes, depending on the zoom factor) and in the export I always get slim white lines as shown in this topic too. I've attached the AD file. Thank you very much for any help.

Hi all, use the brush tool and create several curves (paths). When using Undo (Cmd+z) and normally you should be able to continue straight forward. Most of the times you can go on using the brush tool. But sometimes it switches to curve points (although the brush tool is active) which prevents from painting. Maybe it has to do with the speed of using CMD-Z or that I am using a Wacom Intuos PT S. One of the cheaper "beginner" tablets, but with touch-functionality of the tablet. And when using it, the hell of the hand is laying on it. I can't really say. Thanks, Stefan. -
When changing Raster DPI in the export settings, the dpi is lost or changed to pt. AD-1.5.1.43 and AD-1.5.2.54 (beta) -
Hey guys, Is there a way to reflect an object in Affinity Designer? I know I can duplicate an item, flip it and then move it to create the reflection. But is there a way I can do it in a single click? Thanks

Pressure sensitivity is not working for me in Affinity Designer. It is working in other apps (tablet properties and Xara Designer demonstrated). Clean install of Windows 7 x64 Affinity Designer 1.5.36 Retail Wacom Graphire ET-0405-U USB Driver pro620-w5 (the last official driver to support the original Graphire tablet). "Pressure" is selected both within the brush and as the controller on the context toolbar -

Obwohl ich Text in Schwarz (RGB 0-0-0) angelegt habe, wird er im PDF-Export zur Mischfarbe (CMYK 89-78-62-97). Was mache ich falsch? Although I created text in black (RGB 0-0-0), he becomes in the pdf export the mixed color (CMYK 89-78-62-97). By the way: I tried CMYK 0-0-0-100, also the Black/White Circle. No differenz. What do I make wrong? Kalle -
Hi there, I used Affinity Designer to create some ArtBoards with the same PNG Picture in the background. But when I crop the PNG even slightly, the export results (to PDF) vary in the colours. The cropped picture looks at least 20% desaturated or as if it were highly exposed. (I exported the ArtBoards via multiple choice under the same conditions.) When I change the Picture back to original size it exports seamlessly. Is this a bug? Many thanks in advance for answering :) I am relatively new to digital vector design and am currently using the trial version of AD on a MacBook Pro 2,3 Ghz, 16 GB RAM. I tested the program thoroughly and there are many features I like but some riddles I quite cannot understand (such as importing objects and text from one file to another which leads to various differences in resolution, object information etc) - but the missing reliability to transform pictures would be a no go for a professional design program. -
（亚洲地区希望得到支持）AD入面嘅【像素角色】以及AP入面都唔可以通过数位板以及触控笔正常使用画笔工具，冇出现随著压力大小变化而变化嘅笔触，beta版系咁，正式版都系咁？可唔可以俾个解决方法我呢？ 望尽快修复，唔该嗮 :)

I've been slowly trying to populate my assets pane and its quite annoying that there is only the category and sub category to work with. I'm not looking for a windowsesque infinity of folders but it would be nice if we could have an alpha category or another layer of sub category. For example, say I create a website, social media, icons or w/e category and populate them with different categories and sub categories. Just 1 more level to keep things clean and tidy. Was thinking something like Websites/Footers/ [Cullyns] GradeUi Bootstrap Foundation etc Icons/ Font Awesome Foundation Material Design Hancon etc And others (Misc/DaubPapers, social media broken down by brands) as need be to clean it all up rather than just having a really long list of asset categories then a list of like 22 dropdowns (in GradeUI's case) full of assets. A couple more ideas: Being able to organise the sheets so its easier and faster to find items would be great. Being able to drag the categories up and down the list would be great rather than re-populating it also regardless of the order you installed them, your favourites or most used should be easiest to get to. Unless this is already possible, can we import an asset sheet as a sub category? that might be a useful quick fix (did he just say quick fix? (lol not a programmer!)) for all the icon assets at least though I'm not sure how having hundreds of icons in one sheet will affect the programs performance. Anyways, loving the program, looking forward to seeing where all this goes. -
in both Photo and Designer, how do we toggle the blue bounding boxes on and off? Not so much an issue in Designer, but in Photo its essential... you can't see your composition clearly with that blue box distracting you, especially when creating digital art and photo retouching. Help to find this option in the menu would be appreciated! -
Hi, I experienced the following quite often: when I'm zoomed out, to have a good overview of my doc, I move objects as exactly as I can ... and to make it perfect I zoom in and do the rest. If u use the arrows (Shift+arrows) you will notice that it happens regularly that the when you are zoomed in, the first hit on an arrow will the objects not move 1px as expected - it seems that the distance the object moves, would "match" the distance of the former ZoomLevel or something like that. Cheers, Stefan AD_BugTranslationAfterZoom.mov

Hi, Just in case you didn't pick it up from Vimeo comments, the audio is out of sync in your assets tutorial at https://vimeo.com/182383667 - the video lags. Not sure why, but if you don't want to redo it I reckon you're going to have to cut a few frames here and there :). Cheers! -
Hi, I don't know why, it just happened after a while (some hours) of work, with a file which contains lots of layers and groups. Maybe I duplicated to many objects. I have send the crash log to Apple, so you will receive it, but if you want to have the crash log here as well - for a better association with this bug, just let me. Cheers, Stefan.

Hi, I just noticed that in the layers panel an obviously cosmetic issue occurred if you use an object (in this example an rectangle) as mask (in this example for groups) and you use Undo have a look at the video In the 2 examples the pink rectangle will be displayed as a white one and in the second try as black Cheers, Stefan.

Is it possible to select a specific page when I place a pdf in AD? Now I got no dialogue box and all the pages are grouped in one big layer. Thanks ! -
Hi, (This is for Affinity Designer) I am currently working on a few variations for a popup. I have an iphone frame and a website background that is common for all the variations I'm making. I wanted to work with these variations by creating a snapshot for each one (instead of duplicating files, etc), and then quickly switching to export and saving a bitmap image that I can view directly on my mobile phone. However, every time I load a "snapshot", when I switch to "Export Persona" and save a layer, it saves an image with the previous "snapshot" I was working on. When I try to delete or modify the initial "export layer" and create a new one, AD crashes. To be more precise, AD crashes when I try to create the new "export layer", at the moment when I click on the screen. Additionally, I've noticed that sometimes the guides disappear or are not maintained between snapshots. Thanks, Pavel PS: I've attached the log file that is shown when the application "quits unexpectedly". AD_quit_unexpectadly_log.txt -
Hallo, again I try to get an answer to my question for a AD-problem. Two separate side-by-side objects without a free-space get a separation line. May be that I have a wrong preference but there is no free space between the two objects. I have to overlap the objects to fix this problem. Is it a bug or can I do something against this problem.
