Boolean operations in Affinity Photo create weird shapes.

[Fadi]

Dear Affinity people,

I was trying to do some Boolean operations inside Affinity Photo (on Windows desktop) and found that it would add additional lines and corners:

For example I try to create an arrow using a triangle and a rectangle. I select both, go to geometry and press add, but what I get is a misshaped pentagon.

I wanted to add some screenshots of what it looks like, but it does not seem possible. In any case the shape after adding does not resemble the two original shapes together.

Thanks

Hi Fadi,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
We are already aware of the issues with boolean operations. Quite a few were fixed in the latest Customer Beta available here. You can install it alongside the retail version (they are independent from each other) or simply wait for the next update (which will include the fixes) if you do not feel comfortable installing Betas.

Ok, that's good to know. Thanks for your reply 🙂
