Using Designer 1.10.6 on a 2019 iMac with OS 10.14.6. When I drag an image from the Stock Panel (Pixalbay) onto my document, all that happens is a little window appears telling me the source of the graphic (which it calls a photo, even though it is a vector illustration). There is no sign of the graphic itself. This does not happen with every graphic but it is happening with the one I want. Is there something I should know?

dragging and dropping a lot of assets from pixabay with vector selected does not import the vectors, if you double click you cna go to the website, but click and drag does not appear to be working properly? after some exploration i think i know why... so for example in the stock panel, select pexabay - click the vector button, and search frame - many of the more complicated designs with multiple objects, do not import, it would appear this is because they are in AI format - while others are in .Svg - 3 useful options as potential solutions. 1. - the optino to filter by Svg / compatible formats 2. - in addition to a popup box saying - incompatible file format would you like to import as raster graphic instead (then you can trace them) 3. - whish list, some kind of basic AI import support if at all possible. many thanks.

The stock works perfectly most of the time. But some images/vectors will just not load into my document when dragging them onto it. It looks like this happens for some specific authors. Could anyone quickly check the following: use the "stock", select "Pixabay", check the "Vectors" checkbox in the search box type: "user:AnnaliseArt" and hit enter as a search result many vector graphics appear try to drag and drop some of them into your document I can load NONE of those results into my document. I drag a graphic from the results onto my document, release the mouse button, but then no graphic appears in my document, it is just not there (but the popup box with the author's info does appear). In the pic below you can see this (even the layers tab does not show anything). Are there some file types Affinity can't load via the stock function?
