I've only been using AD for a couple of weeks and I find it easy to use, but after I updated to the latest version yesterday I notice this issue with these purple outlines on objects.
Whenever I hover my mouse over an object, a purple outline appears on that object. As I hover my mouse over other objects the same thing happens to those objects. That outline does not go away when I move the mouse cursor away from the objects. It does go away eventually but I don't know why it takes so long to disappear. AD was not behaving this way before the update. 
Is this a bug or a setting that I now need to adjust? I searched the forums and the help file but could not find anything related to this issue.
Please help! Thanks.
See the video I've attached.

I think I found what was causing the problem. In the "snapping" options I unchecked "show snapping candidates" and that appears to resolve the problem. I don't know how or why that option was turned on but it looks like that was the problem.

Hi @NPriore,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
Yes, the purple lines do represent snapping candidates. You can partially disable them as you did or by changing the Candidates dropdown to something other than Candidates List.

I see that now, Thank you. 
AD is very impressive and easy to learn. I'm enjoying working with it. New features are great. 👍
