Spread Origin greater than 400 mm on X/Y

[kokosmolch 2]

I'm working in a document with size A0 (1189mm x 841mm). When i try to set the spread origin in the guides manager to a coordinate greater than 400mm it instantly resets it to 400mm. Happens on both Win7 and Win10.

Nice catch. Confirmed also for the latest beta 1.8.4.681. Applies for the whole Affinity range.

You're right! Unfortunately I can't set up bootstrap grid system in fhd document.

Hi kokosmolch,

Thanks for letting us know. This is something we're aware of and with development to be fixed. I'll get your comments passed on.

As a workaround you can place an object in the position you want the Spread Origin and then drag out from the ruler intersection to the point you want the origin. This will adjust the spread origin (without the dialog limit) and align to the object placed ensuring it is exactly where you want it.
