The Release notes for Publisher 1.7.0.238 say: Looking in the Preferences for .238, I see that the option to use the Shift key is not set: Further, I see that both M and Shift+M cycle through the Shapes (Rectangle, Ellipse, Rounded Rectangle). Something doesn't seem right (By the way, doing a Ctrl runup of Publisher did not change this behavior.)

Status: Beta Release Purpose: Fixes, improvements Requirements: Purchased Affinity Photo Mac App Store: Not Submitted Download: 1.5 Beta 3 Here This is an early beta of a substantial change to our codebase and as much as we have tried to ensure the quality of the code, it should be considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity that you may be adversely affected by the application failing. In addition it is definitely worth noting that files created in Affinity 1.5 cannot be opened in 1.4 so always make a copy of your important documents before opening them in 1.5 to ensure you do not accidentally overwrite them and are unable to open them in your 1.4 version. To use this beta, simply download the file from the link given above and double-click on the file to open the installer. Follow the instructions to install the beta version. The beta sits alongside the Mac App Store version and will not interfere with it. Improvements - Beginnings of "sticky settings" - blur filters, noise filters, sharpening filters, selection tools, some brushes and assorted other things are now sticky - more to come. - Added ability to place multiple files at once from File -> Place (they will just be added top-left of the document). - Reliability improvement for HDR merge and Tone Mapping. - Made sure the batch progress panel is shown when starting a batch job. - Batch can now use any support file type as input (not just images - so PDF, PSD, etc. work). - Added a menu item and shortcut key to re-enter Live Projection mode. - Started adding editability for recorded macro items - more to come. - Batch can now process RAW files without making them dark. - Made the Denoise filter have equivalent UI to the Develop version. - Posterise can now go down to "1 level" (zero and full). - Added a new "32-bit Preview" panel (to change exposure, gamma preview for 32-bit documents). - 32-bit documents are now faster - using GPU properly. - Improved metadata preservation for HDR merge, focus merge, panorama stitching. - Creating a new document from the clipboard contents starts up as "needs saving". - Subtle inpainting improvements. - Improved "Clone Sources" panel. - Add a default snapshot when creating a panorama. Fixes - Fixed failure to write any metadata ever. - Fixed bugs with the "Edit In" Photos extension. - Fixed TIFF export problems for OS X 10.11.6. - Fixed luminosity bugs with HSL adjustment when applied to a specific hue range. - Fixed warning when exporting a Macro. - Fixed "Invert Layer" for 32-bit documents. - Fixed "Curves" (and other things which use a curves-like edit box). - Fixed issue where Develop would look dark until you changed any setting. - Fixed multiple issues with Dodge / Burn tools. - Fixed multiple issues with equirectangular projections. - Fixed issues with perspective live filters. - Fixed issues with Split Toning in CMYK. - Fixed some UI issues for macOS Sierra. - Fixed infinite memory use bug with Tone Mapping. - Fixed issue where document would turn grey when converting to 32-bit.
