Bubily Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Alright, 1.8.1 is in my case a complete clusterflock of bugs and weirdness but this one definitely takes the cake. Costed me HOURS of work and happened twice in the past 2 days. Scenario: 1. Work on a file for while (hour or two). All good during production, no issues or hangups. 2. Remember you haven't saved in a while. 3. Press Cmd + S 4. Look at your desktop wallpaper for a while wondering wtf just happened. I have no clue whatsoever on what exactly caused the crash but I know something like this never happened in the last 3 years I've used Affinity products. If I can help in any way with this bug let me know. In the meantime I'll try to make a habit of destroying the save button regularly. The worst thing is it's right after I save the damn thing and there's no recovery option afterwards of any kind. All progress is just lost.

carl123 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Is it the same file when it happens? Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

I'm not sure about the first crash but I think I was working on something else. You think the file is corrupted or something like that? It might be worth to note that every time it crashed on document save it happened right after I did some artboard duplicating with a whole bunch of complex layers. Basically right after i beefed up the file size considerably. Maybe it's something to do with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 If you can reliably find a way to replicate the "crash" you can send the document to the support staff who will be then better placed to see what could be causing it and to provide a solution.Alternatively, you can try using the latest beta to see if that is more stable for you.

No dice. I've already tried repllicating it but I have no idea what's the trigger. If I find something more concrete I'll make sure to upload it to the staff. I was more hoping that someone else was experiencing this. I don't want to risk more bugs by using the beta. Disregarding this issue, 1.8.1 is fine. It's just that this bug is such a slap in the face since it happens on SAVE and doesn't leave behind any recovery file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
