Glad I found this Forum... so far its answered a number of issues i've been experiencing. However, due to a lack of text warping capabilities within Designer I'm having to go old school and take the long road just to be able to manipulate text. (Sadly my subscription to Adobe expires very soon and my workflow is definitely going to suffer accordingly, so I really hope Affinity have something up their sleeve) But I have hit a bit of a snag in that the CTRL function for converting nodes to smooth on a path now doesn't work... Nor too when selecting curve handles to be able to equally spread the curve uniformly. When you've become so used to a workflow and then suddenly that functionality seems to stop it can get quite frustrating. Anyone else having issues of this type? I've watched a few video uploads that clearly show the shortcut methods using CTRL to adapt curves equally ... have I switched something off by mistake? I really hope there is a solution to my pain. Thanks in advance.

For many of the functions, e.g., renaming a channel, deleting a saved gradient map, you have to right click. Any chance you might add a modifier key + click to access these options? The standard is ctrl+click for a right click. Perhaps you've reserved this for some other more specific function. But maybe a shift-ctrl+click. I never used right click, preferring instead to press a modifier key. So I had to remap my trackpad to register a two-finger click as the right click, but it remains totally counter intuitive to me. So I always forget. And then it feels strange. Clearly not a big deal, but a ctrl+click would make me happy.
