Expanding Strokes Issue

[JDWrightBrain]

Strokes expand in unexpected ways. I attached an example to show the issue. I've colored the strokes in dark red to illustrate the problem. When I select the strokes and go to "Layers" and choose "Covert to Curves" I get all of these extra loops at the ends. These strokes were copied and pasted from a larger piece of art and they behaved the same way in the new document. New strokes drawn in a New document DO NOT behave the same way. I first noticed this when I created a PDF from a piece of artwork and the strokes were expanded in the process. I attached the PDF as well.

I am using Affinity Designer 1.8 - downloaded on 2/27.

Hi JDWrightBrain,

Are you able to upload a copy of the document prior to the expand stroke so we can investigate it please?

Thanks

I'm attaching a file for the eye.

Thanks for that! I've reproduced this and passed it on to development.

Hey thanks for noticing that in the new document it does not occur, I can now at least workaround it till is fixed.

Still happens with the star shapes and the rest of the ready made shapes of affinity.

I can confirm that expanding the star and double star shapes are still broken in AD 1.8.
