  1. Affinity's light mode UI — in the document setup — has been giving me a headache for months. When you set proportional dimensions, the icon disappears, or becomes so light that you can't see it. And the anchor/rescale active states are reversed. When you chose rescale, the rescale option is greyed out and the anchor option turns white. Which is also wrong. I mentioned this to support months ago, but nothing came of it. Just pointing it out again because it's become highly annoying and time-consuming. The attached screenshot is what it looks like when you set proportional resizing and rescaling. Looking at it, you wouldn't have a clue.
  2. Hello Affinity Designer v2.3.1 Is there a setting for layer selection highlighting? Am I missing something? To me, logic says: when it's highlighted it's selected - But active layers are darkened. Affinity Designer UI does not look like this anywhere else. Which do you think are active layers? I hate this:
  3. A small but frequently encountered issue that is quite annoying: A very common way to try various blend options (in both photoshop and Affinity) is to click the dropdown, select an option (so the dropdown menu becomes the active element in focus) and then use the mousewheel to flick through the options while looking at the results Quite often in affinity Photo (i think after an update) the dropdown box looses focus after selecting a mode in the dropdown list and you can no longer use the mousewheel to flip through the layer blend options. the dropdown element simply looses focus after an option is selected to get the dropdown to be active again, you have to click the dropdown box, then click the dropdown box again (open and close it, not selecting any of the options in the menu), then you can see the element gets a blue outline, and the mousewheel works again to flip through
  4. Application? All (Designer/Photo/Publisher) Latest Version? Yes (2.3.0.2165) Reproducible? Yes Happen for New Document? Yes OS? Windows 11 (23H2) 10.0.22631, 11th Gen i7, 16GB RAM Hardware Acceleration? On What Happens? If the last thing you've 'touched' is any detached/floating panel, the default Windows keyboard shortcut to close a program, ALT F4, closes the panel instead. What's Expected? ALT-F4 should *only* close the program, never a panel or just a document. To Reproduce? Create new document. Have at least one panel detached/floating. Click on that panel. Type ALT + F4 Unusual Hardware? None Work Before? I believe this existed in v1.x Recent Changes? None Other? I mistakenly posted this originally under Feedback. I see that as the post author, I can hide that. Not sure if that's preferred or not. (Not trying to double post an issue. Rather, posting here as a bug report as suggested.)
  5. Small UI bug when the Swatches Panel view option is "Show as list" and a swatch is set to overprint. This is how the documentation shows how the swatches should look: This is how the show in "normal" (?) mode, and it's correct: And finally, this is how the look like in "Shows as list" mode, we can clearly see the grey circles are not being correctly cropped and overlap the swatches above: Thanks!

  7. Hi, I've got this: when working with picture frame I sometimes need to lock children and work only with the frame shape and sometimes I need to edit both the frame and the picture at the same time. I know, there is a tick button in the context panel that can be turned on and off. Is there a way how to add a keyboard shortcut to it? I can't find it anywhere. Or... Is there a way how to temporarily disable the Lock children functionality? Than you!
  8. Love these two new features a lot, but the contents of both of these input dialogs are not centered; it makes the app feel cheap...
  9. FYI, there are some icons which do not change colour -> EDIT: are in fact transparent when switching to light mode... This is when no document is loaded. Bildschirmaufnahme 2023-08-20 um 14.35.32.mp4 ...this was fun... Also, in the guides window, there are (the usual) hidden lock icons when using light mode. (maybe because they are hardcoded in light gray to be seen in dark mode) They are also misplaced I would say.
  10. Hello. When I want to change something's color that uses one of my Global Colors it automatically changes color tool to Tint. It annoys me because there is only one slider and nothing else and I must switch it manually to Wheel every time when I want to change color of certain object without changing the Global Color. Can I somehow change it to use automatically Wheel for example? If not - it would be a nice, user friendly function.
  11. It would be great addition to the suite if while using any slider (on mousedown event): Pressing Opt/Alt interactively decreased granularity for larger increments Pressing Shift interactively increased granularity for finer increments User can change these in Prefs > Shortcuts Thanks for your consideration and all you do!
  12. When using the transform panel to select a point of origin for scaling, etc., the selected or active point isn't highlighted correctly. The top/left default is larger and solid white, but when you select any other point, the size of the point changes, but not the color. I believe the expected behavior is that both the size and color would change to indicate the selected origin, and that would work. However, I would love it if the highlight color (used here and other parts of the UI) was user selectable in settings. Hopefully this isn't a re-post; searched, didn't find the same issue. Thanks. Affects: v2 and beta, all three apps OS: Windows 11 (22H2, 16GB RAM, 11 Gen i7) Hardware Acceleration: Enabled (no change without)
  13. Maybe it has to do with importing my studio presets from the retail version, but ever since build 1730 I get a UI drawing bug with the layers panel. I use detached panels on a second monitor in all my affinity apps. See screenshots and video: Bildschirmaufnahme 2023-03-22 um 08.29.10.mp4
  14. Kapture 2023-03-16 at 05.38.54.webm Howdy, the floating panels appear to act on their own accord in MacOS. Take a look at the bottom right corner of the attached video. Thanks so much! | Designer 2.0.4
  15. I'm listing this as a Designer bug, but it happens in all 3 apps. How to trigger: Open/show the Swatches panel On the panel dropdown menu select "Add Global Colour" Once the dialog box opens, press the Tab key on once your keyboard The colour mode dropdown should be selected Press up (or down) key on your keyboard Instead of the next colour mode, the list separator is selected as shown in the image below This only works until you select a colour mode on that drop list with your mouse. Once you activate this drop list with your mouse, the bug can no longer be triggered until you close (and reopen) this dialog box. Thanks!
  16. macOS 12.6.3 Affinity Designer 2.0.4 Hello I keep my UI window filling the whole screen. I often find the window shifting out of position, which is very annoying, hiding the menus, scrollbars, etc. Especially working with tablet & pen it is very easy to accidentally move the app window when pressing any of the top menu bar icons. Please fix this. When pressing into button area, moving the window should not be possible. Untitled.mov
  17. Hello forum folks, hoping I can get some assistance with this issue and that I'm just missing something obvious. I'm working on a laptop (windows) and find that the majority of the UI (text, icons, etc.) is too small. Some of the fonts scale correctly to my system preferences, but most are microscopic. I have googled and it says there should be a UI font scale option or icon scale option under the User Interfaces section of the preferences menu, but I cannot see it (see attached - screenshot in designer v2). If I can't fix this, it's really going to limit my ability to work with any of the affinity v2 apps on this device. TL;DR: How can I scale up the UI for v2 apps on windows? Any help appreciated.
  18. Input boxes have changed their behaviour in V2. When I change image or canvas size, or when exporting, the first input box used to be ready for entry. Now you have to click on it. That's backwards UI design for me. And Tab should cycle through all the available input boxes. Legibility of icons has got worse e.g. the unlock/lock proportions chain link icon: it's very hard to see the difference. Also tools on the toolbar are less legible e.g. the burn/dodge/sponge tools are hard to distinguish on a laptop screen in light mode. I'm having to work in dark mode when my preference is for light. I haven't felt any gains in upgrading, so with these small but irritating niggles, I am feeling a little regretful.
  19. Please fix the icons to contrast when the menu item is highlighted in blue. The icon will disappear. On the screenshot is the most painful place in ui, but wherever there is a blue backlight, the icons do not change their state, because of this they are hard to read
  20. I would like to bring to discussion the Export screen in the V2 of the Affinity Suite. For complex projects it takes ages to upload the file preview, and in mostly occasions I don't even see it. IMO I don't see any advantage of having quick preview feature versus the having the beautiful icons of quick file type selection of the V1 (those icons V1 was much intuitive and had a different UI compared with the Adobe Suite). So I would like to see the V1 UI back for this screen, or at least quick file type selection of the V1 added to the V2. Thank you, Artem Toderian ---------------------- Included files: Image: EXPORT FILE UI – V2 Image: EXPORT FILE UI – V1
  21. Here is my experience with the Global Colors problem. Created a Document Palette. ‘Upon adding a Global Color to the palette, I can’t add another one. Why not? I’m in my newly created palette… Wrong. Menu says I’m in my created palette. I’m actually in Recents. I need to switch to my created palette, that the menu says I’m already in, in order to add more Global Colors. ‘I’m going to go ahead and call this a bug. Who’s with me? RPReplay_Final1670441685.mp4
  22. I already have the alignment buttons in the regular toolbar, so duplicating them in the context toolbar makes no sense to me. It's a waste of UI space for those who already have access to these buttons (which I believe are in the toolbar by default). Instead, it would be possible to use the screen real-estate for other UI items.
  23. So in Photo and Designer bitmaps scale proportionally if the "shift" key is held down but for vector images it's the exact opposite. A mixed group scales proportionally if the shift key is not held down. Anyway it's weird and makes no sense. Why not choose one and make it consistent (happy for it to be different to PS, but should be consistent in the same app).
