VUYE Daniel Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hello, Could you explain the signification of the very little triangles on the right in the layers panel (see attachment)? I find no mention of this in the help of Affinity Designer. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 25, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hi VUYE Daniel, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Their function is to expand the layers to show the objects/layers/groups contained inside, but they should appear on the left of the thumbnail, not on the right of the visibility checkbox. Please press and hold ⌃(ctrl) while launching the application, then press the Clear button from the dialog that will open. Does it solve the issue? stokerg 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VUYE Daniel Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hello MEB, We already have tried ⌃(ctrl) while launching the application. : this was suggested by Callun. This is not the solution. Thank you for your reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 25, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 25, 2015 Ok, thanks. It's not supposed to be a solution. Just a way to reset the application to make sure it starts from a clean state. If the issue still persists then it may be a bug. Which OS are you running... Yosemite, El Capitan?

VUYE Daniel Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hello MED, (Sorry for my english, I only speak french. Thanks to Google to the translating from french to english) I thank you for your interest in my message and the promptness of your response. This is what I wrote to Callun last day. As you suggested, I reset Affinity Designer with CTRL. This did not change the problem. So I did some tests with the hope to isolate the problem. I combined Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer and two computers. Here's what I observe. 1. The phenomenon occurs on only one computer. 2. It occurs with Affinity Photo as well as with Affinity Designer. 3. It occurs with every files. 4. The trigger seems a simple click. 5. Pass simply from Affinity to Mail and return to Affinity is enough to provoke him. 6. The saved files are not affected by the phenomenon. The computer on which the phenomenon occurs is a eMac 27-inch under MAC 0S 10.8.5 in French. The computer where everything works perfectly is a eMac 27-inch under Mac 0S 10.10.5 (YOSEMITE) in French. Best regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 25, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 25, 2015 Thanks for the information @VUYE Daniel This seems to be an issue specific to Mountain Lion OS. I can't reproduce it in Yosemite/El Capitan. I don't have a machine with Mountain Lion available here (to test this myself) but i will raise it with the team so we can try to replicate and fix this. Please bear with us while we look at it. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VUYE Daniel Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Hello MEB, I too suspect a incompatibility with mac OS10.8. Tomorrow, we will test affinity designer in english. There is perhaps a bug in the french version but not in english. Thank you for your last advise. Best regards, Daniel VUYE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VUYE Daniel Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Hello MEB, As announced yesterday, we did tests in English rather than French. The mysterious problem is still there. I must admit that Photo and Designer will not run on this computer. So I propose to close this topic. Thank you, MEB, for your interest in my problem.

Staff MEB Posted August 27, 2015 Staff Share Posted August 27, 2015 Can you confirm something for me: you're getting this bug running the latest version of Designer/Photo - 1.3.5 - on Mac OS X 10.8.5, right?

VUYE Daniel Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hello MEB, Yes, I confirm : both Photo and Designer are 1.3.5. The problem occurs on Mac OS X 10.8.5 and never on Yosemite. I thank you. Regards, Daniel VUYE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
