What happened to the PLACE tool in 1.9?


Recommended Posts

Hi there. 

I used to see a different pointer when placing a file into an image after selecting. Now the pointer remains the same so I am not even sure until I drag out the image.Any ideas what happened? Is this a change in the UI/UX (User Interface/Experience)?

OS?

Application?

(Works fine for me, all 3 applications, Windows 10.)

It must be a Mac issue. At least I get the 'Down in the toilet icon' on Windows.

Hi @SoulSurfer & welcome to the Affinity forums @Jorge Rocafort,

My apologies for the delayed response here.

I can confirm we've identified visual issues with cursor icons for certain tools on Mac, including the Place Image tool. This issue is logged with our developers and will hopefully be fixed in our next beta version, please keep an eye on the beta section of our forums for an upcoming beta patch.

Many thanks for your report :)

Love the platform! Affinity deserves all the praise and accolades over the "Screw As A Service" Adobe! It helped me to become a creative, something I could never have imagined. Thank you.
