Open a new file when the last time another was opened

This is really ugly:

I obviously had a file left open when I quit AP most recently. I now doubleclicked another apub file in the finder (it was almost the same than the one left opened). So I started editing and saving only to realise that I edited/saved the file from ago.

Problem:

Why does AP (and AD as well!) open the last file left open when I start the app by clicking another file? This is irrational in every thinkable workflow.

Expectation:

The active tab is on the newly clicked file, not the one left open the last time.

This is a preference in General. But I doubt that is the actual source of your gripe which I share. If I open a file I want to see that file not the one or two or three previous ones.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Sorry.

Thank you for reporting a problem using 1.7.x . It appears that a member of the Affinity QA team didn't get round to fully investigating this specific report posted in the bugs forums. We are very sorry for this oversight. Yours is one of a number of reports that I am posting this apology to, using an automated script.

Now we have released 1.8.3 on all platforms containing many hundreds of bug fixes, and we hope your problem has already been fully addressed. If you still have this problem in the 1.8.3 release build, then the QA team would really appreciate you reporting again it in the relevant Bugs forum.

Each of those links above contains instructions how best to report a bug to us. If that is what you already did in this thread just copy paste your original report into a new thread. We appreciate all the information that you have including sample files and screen shots to help us replicate your problem.

This thread has now been locked as the QA team are not following the threads to which this automatic reply is made, which is why we would appreciate a new bug report if you are still have this problem in the current 1.8.3 release build.
