I am using an iPad Pro 2020 with affinity photo 1.8.3
Here is the bug, which I have spent hours trying to find a work around to and failed.
1. I enter selection persona and make any selection of my background layer.
2. I copy and paste the selection to a new pixel layer.
3. I de-select the section. No problem, I have copied and pasted my selection.
here is the problem.
4. I return to the background layer and enter selection persona again.
5. I select Another area of the background layer.
6. I copy and paste again.
7. THE NEW SELECTION IS NOT COPIED AND PASTED ONTO ANOTHER PIXEL LAYER AS BEFORE. THERE ARE MARCHING ANTS AROUND THE SELECTION ON THE NEW PIXEL LAYER, BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO COPY THE SELECTION.
I have wasted hours trying to find a work around.
