mwildancahya Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hi guys! I've download the latest AD 1.8 Updates a minutes ago, but I still found a bug on expand stroke. I just used a basic Star Tool But when I Expand the Stroke, it happens like this: Is anyone having the same issue? Please tell me if I do something wrong Kozaluss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mithferion Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 This also happens to me. Best regards! P.

GarryP Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Windows 10 Home 1909, Designer 1.8.0.585. I think I’ve found a related issue by expanding a simple zig-zag line. Attached video shows the problem. 2020-02-28 12-32-25.mp4 buschbrand and hashms0a 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted February 28, 2020 Staff Share Posted February 28, 2020 The first issue with straight lines was reported here and it's already logged. I'm building a sample from your second video (pressure profiles) to add to our log. Whenever possible please attach the original afdesign files. Thank you for your feedback/samples GarryP. Much appreciated. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdragonvinyl Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Getting the same and it seems to balloon text if you try and weld them never had it happen before this update so guessing its a 1.8 bug. Affecting quite a lot of fonts it seems its only really the A on my picture but some are worse. This is after converting to curves...

Staff MEB Posted February 28, 2020 Staff Share Posted February 28, 2020 Hi blackdragonvinyl, We are already aware of the weird effect on text objects (particularly with letter "A"). This one is also logged.

Staff MattP Posted February 29, 2020 Staff Share Posted February 29, 2020 I'm really sorry about this - it seems we had a bug lurking with very simple shapes (those which contained line segments and horizontal/vertical edges). I have now fixed this issue and we'll get Beta builds out asap to address this problem for everyone.
