thothsscribe Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Create an asset that included two shape elements, 3 png, and 6 text elements. It worked fine for awhile, but I think after this most recent update they are behaving very oddly and completely breaking. Review the video and you will see it seems to occur after copying. Something not captured in the video is that it seems to permanently break the original asset in the system as well. The individual elements are flying all over the page.

thomaso Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 This asset behaves strange indeed, and different to me than in OP's screencast. 1. After I placed it first + copy/pasting + moving the copy, then the icons moved only horizontally but quite far, ~ 8-10 x the width of the initial group. 2. I deleted both groups. 3. Now, when adding the asset again, it appears under the dragging cursor already as destructed and gets placed like this after mouse release: thothsscribe, – In which app were the assets created? – Were symbols involved at any stage?

Would it be possible there is a general issue in v184 which didn't exist in v183 and therefore might get solved kind of 'easily'?

Everything was created in Publisher. The icons were exported from Figma but all the text and rectangles were in Publisher. I don't believe I used symbols at any stage. Not entirely sure what they are in Publisher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomaso Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Odd that only this group is affected but not the various other assets which use the icons, too. – Do you still have the "original" file where you setup the layout and colours for the assets? – Were the assets downloaded from Figma as vectors, or as pixels as used in the assets? It seems APub affects this asset not continously in the same way but differently with each new use. The process/behaviour seems to get reset by deleting the Asset Category + importing it again. In the first video I drag/copy this asset on page, in the second I place the asset in a new .afpup (after its use as shown the first video), the icons show as vertical stripes only. asset strange decompose move.m4v asset strange pixel appearance.m4v Quote macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothsscribe Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I have not seen the lines issue yet. Maybe there is some link broken when importing the asset into a new file? I am trying to recall exactly, but I believe the icon assets were imported as SVG from Figma and then at some point I rasterized them because apparently you can't make a Pub asset that contains svg. The other colored assets are older versions on an earlier iteration, but ultimately still make in the same process as this one as far as I recall.

Maybe there is some link broken when importing the asset into a new file? No, there is no link in the asset, also the stripes don't occur on every use of the asset. The stripes are rather a render issue. Their seem to be conflicts for APub to handle various sizes, dimensions and bounding boxes of the group's items correctly, in particular of this pixel icons in relation to each other and to the group. I wonder if the group was someway corrupted already before it got copied to the Asset Panel, that's why I asked you for the initial layout document.

thothsscribe Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I made that asset in the file you have, unfortunately I think I deleted the original instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that i'm currently aware of. It would be useful if we had the original document, but there's definitely something wrong with these assets. I'll pass them on to development to see if we can see how they might have got like this Quote Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothsscribe Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 I am really sorry, what original document? I sent the original document. Would it help to have the original SVG's? I think I have those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Jon P Posted August 20, 2020 Staff Share Posted August 20, 2020 I was referring to the document the assets were originally created from, if you had it. It's been passed on to development regardless, as it does seem to be a regression over 1.8.3. Quote Serif Europe Ltd. - www.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothsscribe Posted August 21, 2020 Author Share Posted August 21, 2020 sounds good. The document I did send was a cleaned up clone of the original, but I know that may not have all the necessary data to explain it. Thank you all for all of your help and suggestions. Glad to see it wasn't ENTIRELY me Jon P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
