Yesterday I upgraded Affinity Designer to 1.10.5, but to my surprise since version 1.10.5 the Cat Tool isn't working as before. I'm not sure if this is intentional, but it's not drawing a cat anymore. I clearly understand not everybody is using the cat-tool and I know the tool started as a gimmick by Serif, but I find this tool quite useful to use in projects as kind of a Lorem Ipsum image in new (prototype-)designs I sent to clients to give them an impression. The cute cat was perfect for that and had the perfect aspect ratio! But for some reason it's not that cute cat anymore and it now has a much wider aspect ratio than before too. Also the cat it is drawing now isn't as nice. It's more like some preditor animal now while it was such a cute kitty before I was happy to send to clients in prototype designs. I'm sure that influences the whole feel of a design. Because of this change in the tool I now need to either replace all existing cute cats in designs I was already working on in the previous version of Affinity Designer, or I have to re-install the previous version of Designer. Both are not ideal. Well, I could also copy the cat from the designs as a workaround, which is fine, but that's not ideal and doesn't solve the issue long term. Please Serif, could the cat tool please be restored to the same image as before? I include the Affinity file as an attachment, just in case you might want to use it to investigate. Thanks in advance! cat-tool-issue.mp4 testfile.afdesign
