velarde Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Hello. I've noticed some strange behavior using the latest 2 o 3 versions of Affinity Photo. 1.8 in Mac I couldn't place exactly the problem , but I've noticed this. • Scrolling through the font list when I have a text object selected is not working properly (like it used to) I begin scrolling through the font list and the list closes. I have a hard time selecting the font I want. This definitely was .not happening before. Either manually or scrolling with my mouse.... If I type the font it will work. But scrolling the font list is kind of broken... • Also sometimes I notice that I'm working on an image in Photo (in separate mode) and I suddenly find myself in the background application that I'm also running. • Also starting typing in a text object in an active Photo file will send the file to the back and bring me another Photo and make that one active (again in separate mode) . I have to close all the opened Photo files and just have the file I want to modify to continue working . In other words I can't have more than one Photo file open and work properly.. (Which I could before) Something is off.. and making Photo not working properly. maybe investigate Separate mode.. Note: Restarting Photo seems to fix the font list text issue temporarily but I've "felt" this problem arise in these couple of days .... strange. Anyone else seen this? Thanks Quote ------------------------ Fernando Velarde www.velarde.com Instagram.com/soyfervelarde

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

Tzvi Freeman Posted December 16, 2020 Posted December 16, 2020 Since downloading the latest iteration (1.8.6), I've been experiencing the scrolling issue mentioned by Velarde. Initially, everything works as expected. At a certain point, I can no longer scroll through the font menu. I can still select a font from the menu, but I can't scroll sequentially through them to view each option. Quote
Staff Patrick Connor Posted December 16, 2020 Staff Posted December 16, 2020 @Tzvi Freeman Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums Can you please confirm what macOS you are using? I think this may be an independent issue from the one that was certainly fixed, even if it seems similar to your description.

Thanks Exactly the same problem with scrolling through fonts. If I quit & restart computer it works correctly just once Quote
