Freehand selection tool (Polygonal and Magnetic) won't close

[LeG]

hello there,

when using the Freehand Selection Tool in polygonal or magnetic mode with the stylus I am not able to close the selection. Neither by double click nor by clicking on the first blue dot.

Works fine with the mouse of course.

Am using APhoto 1.8.2.620 (Win10) on Surface 2017

Hi LeG,

I could not reproduce this, it works fine on my PC with the wacom-tablet and with the mouse. Have you tried to hit the Return-Key to close? 

Btw I,ve already updatet to 1.8.3

I can reproduce this. Using Wacom Intuos 3 small. Once I disable Windows Ink in AP, it works, but loose the pressure functions.

thanks for checking.

@Ray S. good point! updated to 1.8.3.641 now, but the bug is still there. (unfortunately I bought photo through the MS store, which doesn't remind me on startup about updates like ADesigner does, which I downloaded directly from Affinity a while back. :/)

using the return-key works for closing the selection. but is only a workaround, right?

Yes it's a workaround.
